Willy Goes to Japan... Again?: The Final Moments
http://willygoestojapan.blogspot.com/2008/12/final-moments.html
Willy Goes to Japan. Again? A journal of Willy's experience studying abroad in Osaka, Japan starting from the application process to the return home. Monday, December 29, 2008. The very day I was leaving, Sho offered to drive me to make the trip a lot easier. Well, Sho had a party the night before my departure and was completely incapacitated. Nervously, Mayu agreed to take the wheel, since she was the only one with a driver's license. Mayu at the wheel as we pull away from Makino Train Station.

The Many Adventures of Me: May 2008

Friday, May 16, 2008. Bath Says Goodbye Sometimes. I've left Bath for the last time. This last Monday afternoon my friends put on the play they had been working on since Oxford. It was a retelling of Midsummer Night's Dream, except instead of Hippolota and Theseus' wedding it was Beyonce and Jay-Z, if that tells you anything. It was funny though, and nice entertainment. They had worked hard on it. Monday night was fantastic! So, goodbye Bath. Goodbye England. Tuesday, May 13, 2008. I'm done with finals!

The Many Adventures of Me: January 2008
http://adventuresofanabigail.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 30, 2008. It’s my second full day here in. And so far it’s mostly been orientation. This morning we got a lecture about culture shock, or as Andy, one of the ASE staff members likes to call it “Transition Shock.”. He said, “When you go back you may have a friend who went to. And everyone will crowd around them saying, ‘Oooo. It’s so different! Eh, you just went to. Still, he’s right in a lot of ways. For example, the flat I live in is transition shock. The whole house gets along well, ...

Monday, January 28, 2008. Craic All Week Long! So on to the weeks other adventures from the week! While drinking cider and enjoying the atmosphere. I even made another Irish friend- one of the singers- and HE USED THE TERM CRAIC! Nina and I were so excited, thats actually the first time I'd heard the word dropped in conversation. : D Hopefully there will be many pictures soon; I actually keep forgetting my camera so I have to wait for other people to put them up and then steal them! They're suspects in a...

The Many Adventures of Me: November 2007
http://adventuresofanabigail.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2007. And Now My Computer Screen Is Cracked. Street crosser ever. People literally make fun of me for it. They have since high school. And yet, it's me that gets hit. It's a bit vindicating. All my worry has been validated. Sadly, all of the hard work put into reversing my fear of crossing streets has been undone. So that's my story. I'm really ok, though. Just a little afraid to cross streets again. We Could Always Use More Sleep. I thought, "I've never heard of him! Then we deci...

The Many Adventures of Me: June 2008
http://adventuresofanabigail.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 4, 2008. The United States Again. Summer 2008 has started and gotten well underway. The Tuesday after I got home Jacob arrived! The very next day we drove four hours up to Pittsburgh to see Eddie Izzard's new stand-up "Stripped." Eddie Izzard! The show was excellent, and the drive was actually fun- we passed farms which are infinitely amusing to Jake. May 3oth was Kay's 21st birthday! Who I love with a passion, and Perfume. A book by Leslie, and Northanger Abbey. By Jane Austen. So th...

The Many Adventures of Me: December 2007
http://adventuresofanabigail.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 30, 2007. Sara Duke, nee Strehle. My friend Sara got married last night. It's so strange having a friend get married. She was a senior when I was a freshman (in college). She was a beautiful bride. She had the prettiest dress I've ever seen and she and Kevin looked so happy the whole night. It really only hit me that she was married when we were gathering for a picture and Kevin said, "Where's Sara? Hannah (who was standing by me) and I both looked at each other a little shell-shocked.

The Many Adventures of Me: April 2008
http://adventuresofanabigail.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 28, 2008. I have one paper left to write. One The topic is Religion in 18th Century England. I'm not exactly excited about this one. But, by Wednesday I will have no more papers left to write. And it will be May Day! My friend Danielle and I are going to stay in Oxford on Wednesday after our tutorials to celebrate the sunrise on May 1st in the traditional Oxford way. At six in the morning the boys choir of Magdalen College sings from the Bell Tower and there's dancing, drinking, and joy.

Sunday, January 13, 2008. So, I am the world's worst updater. Get used to it. Last night, it took me about an hour to upload these 7 pictures because the internet was so slow, so I figured that I would add text between my classes today. Good. But there has been only like 1 day where it didn't rain, so that probably explains it. Since I cannot get the formatting on this thing to work, I'll just say that the last picture is of me with Dylan and Ellie. Adorable, yes? It looks so beautiful!
