Oops, so once there was this blog I said I was going to do...

Oh the overambitious side of me often overtakes the logical part of me, much as it did with the hopes that I would have time while studying abroad to diligently blog.  Sigh.  Well, it is summer, the monotony of home has sunken in, so what better way to liven it up than to relive this last year via blogging?  What could go wrong?!?  Hopefully I won't sink into a deep and dark depression with the realization of how much I miss getting espresso from the handsome Daniele or seeing the top of the Duomo peeking out at me as I walk to school.  Here in Battle Ground we have... some really great coffee shops, and... some even better grocery stores.  See what I am dealing with? Sigh. On the bright side, even if my mom is still the only one who reads my blog, at least this last year will be documented to some extent, and the fact it is public will naturally guilt me into at least blogging a few times before I throw up my hands in acceptance of the futility of it all. Stay "posted" (haha) for more and maybe even a few stories that will be a chuckle, a cringe, or threat from my mom to never ever let me travel again because clearly no one should find themselves lost in Paris in the middle of the night carrying luggage and mysteriously forgetting the YEARS of French that had been studied... Anyway,  may illustrate my point a little more with a some visual aids (thanks google).

I mean really, can you blame me for not blogging?  I think not.  Shout out to all of you who even noticed I stopped blogging, there may have been just one actually, a friend of my mom's, of course, and now that I think about it, my mom didn't even notice my absence in the blogging world... sigh.  So much for my number one fan. I'll be taking applications for anyone else who would like to be lovingly over-interested in my life. 

Ciao for now!
