1 Year Anniversary

Its been 1 year! Today February 23rd last year I embarked  on the greatest adventure of my life thus far: Study Abroad in Seoul, South Korea, Spring 2013.  As I boarded the plane, i was nervous, anxious, excited and soooooooooooooo Happy!  I thought i knew how great it would be but i was in for a surprise. Study Abroad, Korea, Korean People, Korean Food, Korean College Life was more that i could have ever asked for or expected. There were so many things to say, remember, and that i wish i could relieve but most of all i am so happy and blessed and grateful to everyone.

Special Thanks to Matt Wilkins and Shelly Jesse and the GW Study abroad program, Simon Lee who funded and created the program. Benjamin A. Gilman Scholarship for investing and funding in my dream. Korea University Buddy Association, KU Engineering School, LoGs Acapella Group, Jubilee church. You all were a great part of my amazing experience in korea and I love you all.
