Mary Rose Jaskiewicz

So I made one of my goals for the New Year to study abroad. Well I found out on Monday that I was accepted to study abroad in Dublin, Ireland next fall! This means that Mary’s Average Adventures is going INTERNATIONAL!

It took me a while to share not only because I had to share the news with some family and friends first and also because I was still getting used to the idea of it all. Like it’s something I wanted to do but something inside of me kept saying I would never get in so I really had no expectations of actually going but things worked out!

As I keep you guys updated on literally everything going on in my life- this was some major news and obviously this was the first thing I wanted to do with it but I had to tell other people first, you know family and stuff. I’m really excited and like still processing it all.

I’m really ahead in my major and I don’t know if I want to do a minor so I’m mostly taking electives while I’m away. This means talking to a lot of different faculty members and different department heads trying to get all of the right permissions for a variety of classes.

So yeah here’s just a little update. Also I quit that challenge because I hated it. Whoops. I got very negative toward it so I’m just going back to the few times a week now- that’s probably best for me anyway.

Is anyone else studying abroad now or in the future or even in the past? I hope everything from here on out works out but who knows- things happen. As of right now in six months I will be in Ireland! Crazy!
