Trailer

     Hey hey hey! Welcome all to the ramblings of lil ol' me.  I started this blog for the sole purpose of updating everyone (who is interested) about my life all at once, killing fifty birds with one site, although I sincerely hope my words won't bore you to death.  This is the trailer post! Mostly, the point of this post is to make sure that I understand how to use this thing (I suck at computers) and so that viewers (my grandparents) know how to navigate my page.
     But, this post is also a great way to advertise the fact that I will be studying abroad in Thailand in less than a month, and rub it in all of your faces that I get to travel and do cool things like ride elephants (do you like the one up top?) and learn a different language! Bahahahah! About leaving in less than a month:  I am SUPER EXCITED! And I am incredibly anxious.  I will be away from all of my friends and family for about five months, and I have recently come back from a three-week study tour in India which ate into my summertime with everyone (although that was a life-changing and beautiful experience that I would never consider taking back).  So, this month is all about trying to bug all of the people that I love as much as humanly possible while writing a research paper, trying to earn money, and preparing for my semester in Thailand.  I am sure that the International Education department at St. Mary's would be disappointed in the zero amount of times that I have read through their guidebooks so that I am prepared for the culture shock and know how to be a good foreign exchange student.  Woops.
     Well errbody who cares, favorite this link, and start checking it around August 9, the day of my impending departure to the other side of the world.  Show it to your mom, show it to your friends.  Show them how I am terrible at puns (the title amused me at two in the morning, but now I am horrified, but refuse to change it). And if anyone has any questions about how to use it, you could email me at jpaguirigan03@gmail.com.  Or, you could ask your five-year old (assuming you have one) because they are probably less technologically inept than either one of us.
