Week One Recap!

You like it…I like it…a quick read! I’ve been in Manchester for over a week and here’s a recap of my “10 Intents” progress.

1: Minimizing Murphy’s Law

My flight arrived in a timely manner, although I had to wait outside of the Accommodation Office for 15 minutes before it opened. Have you ever peaked through a window with a face that said, “Oh come on! Please give me a break!” I was only slightly late to Orientation, but all was well.

2: Class & Professional Network

No class on Wednesday! (Although I wish I could say that for Friday…) My courses are to my liking and I rented all my textbooks for free from the library. (#TeamSaveMoney) My mentor is fabulous and has been very helpful!

3: Leadership in Action

The first day, we had a dynamic guest lecturer and I am looking forward to all of our future guests! I have my first volunteer project tomorrow morning so stay tuned for details.

4: Friendship

I became acquainted with my flatmates and many of the other exchange students. Everyone is so welcoming!

5: #TeaWithKea

Check Instagram. Enough said.

6: Food

Apparently, you can “eat your way through the alphabet” in Manchester and so I decided to start with I: Indian Food!

7: Culture

We were offered a Coach Tour and well, never say no to free, right? I was able to admire so many aspects of Manchester!

8: Football and Festivals

I haven’t been to any festivals, but I have enjoyed the electric nightlife. Literally LIT!

I recently purchased a Man Utd ticket and am looking forward to watching the game later this month!

9: Fashion

Although it constantly rains, my Forever 21 boots came in so clutch that I didn’t even need to purchase wellies when I arrived!

10: Euro Tripping

This weekend I’ll be in London! I’ve also purchased tickets to Edinburgh, Scotland and Paris, France! I still have yet to plan for all the places I want to go during Easter break, but I will surely get on it ASAP!
