Fall 2010 turned out to be a great semester (even though we didn't update the blog as much as we would have liked...)! Classes were challenging and finals not fun, but here we are on the other side, looking back at our time this semester.... We went to a lot of football games and rushed the field for our first time. We became attached to the Mediterranean food, but were disappointed that south dining hall only serves it once every 12 days. We played Settlers of Catan probably a few too many times. We hosted three Coffee, Cupcake, and Conversation parties in the 312, where people just dropped by for an open house to hang out and eat our baked goods. We have loved getting to know new friends and seeing old ones. All in all it's been a wonderful semester.
Now we look forward to next semester. Unfortunately some of our program members are only studying here a semester and will be leaving us soon. For you all, keep us posted about your semesters abroad! We are also so excited to see the people who are coming back and joining us for Spring semester! Although Lyons will be losing a few wonderful girls (especially Sarah, who will be missed!), it will also be gaining back a few wonderful ones, especially my roomie Shannon Chisholm, Mariel, Kelsey, and Shannon Kelly. We are so excited to have them back, and the last few days before break were spent cleaning and straightening up for their arrival! So Shannon, the room looks beautiful and we think you will love it when you see it! Until then, we hope you all have a beautiful and relaxing break. From the South Bend Program, Merry Christmas!
