Hi everyone!
I'm done with all of my finals! YAY! It has been a very busy time studying for all of my finals and now I'm officially done! I leave St. Andrews on the 30th and spend the night in Edinburgh before flying to London on the 31st and then spend the night there before flying to Dallas on the 1st and then on the Denver! I'm sad I'm leaving Scotland as I have had an AMAZING time here and plan to spend the next few days on the golf course and then out in the pubs at night soaking up the last bit of Scotland. I am truly blessed to have had this experience and will remember it for the rest of my life. While I am sad to leave I'm getting excited to get back to the USA and see everyone there.
Love y'all and miss you!

Alicante, Spain
Hey Everyone!
I just got back from Alicante, Spain and it was wonderful! I had a great time just being in warm weather! We spent as much time on the beach or by the pool as possible. It was so great! Back in St. Andrews today it was raining and cold all day! A rude awakening from the time on the Mediterranean Coast. Our hotel was literally right across the street from Playa Muchavista--the water was so clear and while not the warmest--still much warmer than the North Sea! Now I have to really get down to studying for my finals instead of laying on the beach pretending to study!
Love y'all and miss you!

May Ball
Hey Everyone!
May Ball, which is put on by the Kate Kennedy--an all male charity organization, was on May 10th. It was so much fun! The Kate Kennedy members are known for wearing their tartan trousers and they were out in full force along with kilts at the event!
Love y'all and miss you!!!

Birthday!
Hey Everyone!
My 21st Birthday was this past Saturday- May 9th. And I had a great time with friends! We went out the night before to ring in my b-day at midnight and then on the 9th we went out to dinner (all 18 of us) to Bella Italia--a nice Italian restaurant in St. Andrews. It was so fun and I loved spending my 21st birthday in St. Andrews!
Birthday Dinner
The 40 balloon was under my chair at dinner! So we decided I turned 40!
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! Miss y'all and Love you!

May Dip
Hey Everyone!
Today was May dip! It is a tradition that on the 1st of May at sunrise the students of St. Andrews run into the north sea to rinse off bad luck. Also if you step on the PH that is in bricks in front of the main academic quad, which is where Patrick Hamilton was burned at the stake for being a Protestant reformer, then to avoid having the rest of your academic career cursed you must do the May Dip. I did not step on the PH but I still wanted to do the May Dip as it was an experience that I will never have again. We ended up going out last night and then going back and changing once the pubs closed around 2am and then heading down to the beach. There were bonfires and everyone was hanging out on the beach. It was so great and I actually got some good pictures as well. After the dip at around 6am I made it back to my hall and took a shower--there was lots of sand in the bathrooms this morning oddly and headed to bed.
Classes are coming to an end (so soon! it is crazy!) and one of my classes actually ended on Thursday. I have lecture on Tuesday and Thursday next week, with one paper due on Tuesday and then I am done with school work except for finals. My finals are May 22nd, 25th and 26th. With the break we have between classes and finals some friends and I are heading to the South-East coast of Spain to Alicante for the 11th-14th. We want to get some sun while we are studying! I am looking forward to the trip! May 10th is May Ball--which is the Ball put on by the Kate Kennedy club. The KK is a male charity organization that is known for wearing their tartan trousers around town. And of course as you know May 9th is my birthday! I will be 21! I can't believe how old I am! May is turning out to be a very exciting month!
Love y'all and miss you!
