Beginning – My Last Night in Champaign, IL

Hello everyone! I’ll be writing about my experience in Versailles, France and across Europe as often as I can in this blog. I will also be including pictures. I actually don’t even know if I spelled the name of this blog correctly, but you get the point. I don’t speak French (at all really) so this will be a most challenging experience. Thanks for reading and I’ll be posting my new address up here soon.

To contact me: use facebook, my email address: lizkeane2@gmail.com, Skype (liz.keane2), or Windows Live Messenger (lizkeane2@hotmail.com) I prefer Skype, because I can video conference with those with webcams etc. and it’s free for me to talk to you over the internet instead of finding a phone and calling you. So get an account with it!!

In other news, today I had my going away party at my house. A great group of people celebrated (or mourned?) my leaving for this trip and it was great to have them all there. After attending 9pm mass at St. John’s (particularly moving, my sister Rosemary was with me) I said farewell to more people very close to my heart. I never realized how hard it would be. For all of you reading this, thank you for your presence in my life, how you have made me grow and enriched my experiences in preschool, gradeschool, highschool, and now college. You’re in my prayers and I ask you to pray for me.

Pictures!
