It&#8217;s also strange to think that we won&#8217;t be on campus again for an entire year. I&#8217;m not so scared about the cooking part, I love to cook and do it a lot, but I am concerned about keeping in touch with my frieds from school and home. Many of them are also going abroad and I can&#8217;t wait to travel and see them.<\/p>\n<p>This whole visa process is very nerve-wracking and I rally would like just to get it over with, but noooooo, it is a very long drawn out, and incredibly dramatic procedure. I just keep waiting for something to go wrong, so if there is anything that is making me truly nervous about our upcoming adventure its the whole visa ordeal. I understand the necessity of it, but its still makes me feel like I&#8217;m banging my head against a wall.<\/p>\n<p>I love horseback riding and really would like to ride in Norwich. I heard that British trainers are much sterner than their American counterparts so we will see how that goes! I have also been skiing since I was four and I definately want to try some skiing on the Alps. I also want to make an effort to try something new, something I wouldn&#8217;t think of doing if I was at home or at Dickinson.<\/p>\n<p>I see this next year as full of opportunities and I want to try as many of them as I can. I want to explore England and Europe as much as possible and really immerse myself in the culture because this is a chance for all of us to something great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am excited about this coming year, but I also feel like I am an incoming freshman again.I&#8217;m hoping that I will love England and UAE as much as I love my time at Dickinson.
