Exotic lands and new experiences fill almost every college student’s mind at one time or another but only few (less then 20 percent) will endeavor into a “study-abroad program”. For those who do, the hardest part about the program itself is the return to one’s home country/educational institution. 

This is your senior year.  The end all be all.

My name is Sean and I just finished high school. I'll be off to the University of Mary Washington in the fall but until then I plan to make the most out of the next couple of months, starting with this cool little internship. That being said, don't get too attatched; I'll only be here until June 10th. Until then, read and enjoy. By the way I live and breathe movies; I reviewed them for my school paper and I own 100+ DVDs. This means I might be throwing some obscure references around here and there, so consider yourself warned.

I don’t have a whole lot of links today (quit slackin’ in the short week, bloggers!) so instead, I will relate a quick story.
