I find myself coming over a simply massive wave of new blogs (rather, it coming over me) that are being generated from acquaintances who are about my year and are simultaneously going on study abroad this semester.
The feeling of the massive wave is only accentuated by the fact that since they have virtually all arrived in the last week at the same time, reading through their blogs is something like experiencing recurring déjà-vu that keeps taking place in different cities. They are quite literally under the same cookie-cutter formula. There's nothing wrong with that (you just got there, your mind is exploding with new information and sensations), but I do look forward to things splitting in their own unique directions soon. I mean, you're all in completely different countries, and sometimes even continents. If we were all one some culture living under one same environment, there are several millions who probably wouldn't be prematurely dead right now. Ehm... I mean, we'd also be a bit more boring, so don't make your blog that way ;) .
Anyway, just remember:
I've got seniority over you people.
(PS -- before you really start rolling, please take considerate note that paragraph breaks are a blessing, and do use them. "Stream-of-consciousness" blogs are nought but an eyesore. Also, I am happy to help with blog formatting. Cheers.)

I'm actually following five blogs right now (including two of yours). It is weird how many people just shipped it overseas. I keep hoping my life will be interesting enough to blog about but not so far. ^_^ Maybe once I get into vet school?
Doesn't have to be interesting :) . I write things that just emerge in my head all the time, even more so on the other one (Bloog-a). Don't be blog-discouraged just because you're contentedly going to school in a little tornado magnet area... speaking of which, I noticed even blog has been... blown away? ;)
I'm trying again. Try s-a-musings.blogspot.com ... on another note, I'm too lazy to relearn html to format my blog... how long would it take you to do something simple if I got you a background I liked?
Have you seen Kristen's France blog yet? (http://aixetudiante.blogspot.com/) . I did the layout for this one, if you think you like it. I really like doing HTML blog formats, so I'd be only more than happy to do it for you (once my Hell Week is over in a few days here :) . ) Just send me over a blog wallpaper and any ideas you think you want on it. (Oh, change your password and message it to me too.)
