So, I am sitting at the airport, and I am tired. I woke up at 3:30 am and drove here, and I’m just tired. However, I am so excited about this trip that I can’t even imagine napping as I wait for departure. My parents are doing seesaw impressions going between “This will be an…

The time is 11:38. I just arrived home from participating in UGA’s Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony and in a little less than 12 hours, will board a plan to embark on my final adventure as an AgDawg. To say that I am excited would be a large understatement. To say that I am nervous would be…

Last summer, I found myself in a small Kansas town as I worked for the American Hereford Association. This summer, I am heading in a direction that is quite the opposite as I jet off to Romania for a Culture-Centered Communication Study Abroad to document the happenings around agricultural philanthropy in communities. My first…

As I comfortably relax back home, kicking my feet up on an ottoman, I reflect on how thankful I am that finals are over. Although I no longer have finals on my mind, I can think of nothing else but the date May 11th. That is the day that I’ll be boarding a plane and…
