More Than “Study Abroad”

Over the past couple of weeks I’ve gotten the chance to meet a lot of wonderful admitted students who have come to campus for Explore USC. One of the questions I’ve gotten a lot has been, “Is it possible for engineering students to study abroad at USC?” Of course, the answer to this is very clearly “yes!” Engineering students can study at a foreign university for a whole semester through...

Highway 1 Road Trip

On my way back from Valparaiso, IN, to SC, I made a few stops. I first went to visit my roommate Caroline in Northern California. She lives about an hour east of San Francisco in a town called Livermore. We spent a few days at her house, and then we took Highway 1 all the way back to school. The drive is beautiful! The highway runs along the Pacific Ocean...

It feels so good to be back in the swing of things at ‘SC! But I do have to say I had an epic winter break in Japan with my family and wish I were still there! I visited Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe, which encompasses western Japan. The food was amazing, to say the least!! From unique side-street vendors (tofu donuts, octopus balls, custard-filled pastries, and all things green...

Well, it’s back to school. After a nice long trip home, filled with cold weather, snow, warm clothes, food, and plenty of sleeping, it’s back to the books for my final semester. Unfortunately, I’m enrolled in 7 classes. Fortunately, one of those classes is soccer! I’ve played soccer since the age of four, but haven’t played competitively since high school. My other classes are all to finish out my major. I’m...

BAH! Winter break is over already? Oh where did the time go :’(. Well it was definitely a good one while it lasted, at least for me. Like I said in my last post of 2011, I went to Chicago for a couple of days through New Years. While there, I went to a RUSKO concert with my friends and it was INSANE! Lots of fun. We also hung out...

A productive break in Wisconsin!

I kicked off break with a ski trip at mammoth mountain with some friends from Viterbi Summer Overseas, which was EPIC! I considered that training for dealing with snow on nature’s terms when I got back to Wisco, but it turned out to only snow once the entire time I was home actually, so that was almost a let down. Don’t worry, I still got to shovel the driveway… ANYWAY,...

Christmas at the Bakers

Christmas time is the best time to hang out at the Baker house. I talked about why the Holidays were my favorite in my last blog, but now I have picture proof of how Christmas is done at my house. I started break by doing the normal winter activities like going ice skating with my dad, taking family outings to see Mission Impossible and Sherlock Holmes, and hosting a number...

Unfortunately I can’t say I’m going to miss 2011. This year I was met with a lot of unforeseen challenges. People that are very close to me were dealing with serious health problems. I also dealt with a frustrating leasing company (frustrating is an understatement) and couldn’t stay in my own apartment for a month. As if stressing about health problems, my apartment, and a full-load of engineering classes wasn’t...

Hey y’all! (Yes, I can now say y’all that I’m officially back in the South!) I made it successfully through finals and am now home in Georgia enjoying the holidays with my family. We had a family reunion just days after I got back from USC to celebrate my grandmother’s 80th birthday, and it was great to see my extended family. Since the Italian clan left, I’ve just been enjoying eating...
