We all have one, a list. A list of things we want to accomplish before we graduate. Here's mine:
1. Graduate (Duh, that's why I'm here!)
2. Intern for Broadcasting Firm for a summer, or a semester.
3. Be on Exec for Phi Mu.
4. Make the President's List AT LEAST one semester I'm in college.
5. Perform the National Anthem at a football game.
6. Compete for the title of Miss South Carolina.
7. Stay up for 24 hours at Dance Marathon.
8. Study Abroad in England, my second home.
9. Join SGTV.
10. Graduate (Duh, that's why I'm here!)
In order to accomplish everything on this list, I will continue to stay positive throughout my years here, and do my best to take advantage of every opportunity that comes my way.

I'M GOING HOME
My sister studied abroad for two semesters and was almost given the opportunity to travel abroad for graduate school when she was a finalist for the Fulbright Scholarship. It is not that I want to follow in my sister's footsteps, per-say, I just saw how much it changed her life for the better to see the world. I have traveled before because I am fortunate enough to have dual citizenship of America and England, so I have traveled to Europe twice.
Even with all of my travels, I was very young both times I went to England and saw what I guess is one of my "homelands." I traveled there when I was 4 and 15. During those times, I was not really interested in fully taking in the atmosphere, one because during one trip I was only months out of being a toddler, and the second time I was going through my freshman year of high school that was not the best year for me. Now I am older, wiser, and just a TINY bit more confident in myself. (; Therefore, I want to study abroad in London, England and hopefully work BBC America, their biggest broadcasting company.
I believe that if I go back to study abroad in England, I will truly be open to learn during my studies, and also all about myself. My whole entire family is over there, so I would be surrounded by culture and hopefully, I would be able to figure out even more about where my mum came from.
I have done much thought about studying abroad, and I think I will either go the end of sophomore year next year or during the summer for a Maymester. I know most people study during their junior years, but it is my goal to hold a leadership position in my sorority and that would require me to live in the house my junior year.
I am so happy to attend a school that offers such wonderful opportunities, and I hope to take advantage of them very soon!
