Training Session Entry – Get Pumped!

Hey bloggers!

First of all, it is freakin’ hot in this computer lab even with all the windows cracked!  Not okay.  But I’m not here to complain, so I’ll just write what I’m supposed to now.

My name is Staci.  I’m a sophomore majoring in Public Relations.  I’m going to the Czech Republic this summer as part of an embedded program in my International Communications class (Comm 410).  The program is only a weeklong trip (not nearly long enough), but I’m really excited for it nonetheless.  I will be staying in Prague with three of my classmates (Drew, Creig, and Megan – they will also be blogging. Yay!), our professor, Michael Elavsky, and Chenjerai, a grad student here at Penn State.  We’re leaving May 17, less than a month away.  So weird.  And to think I still need to get through finals and three end-of-term projects. 

I feel kinda lame to admit that this will be my first trip overseas, but it’s true.  I can’t really say what I’m expecting, only that I’m planning on learning a lot.  Don’t worry though – what I learn, I will DEFINITELY tell you.

Well, that’s all for now folks!  I’ll see you in Prague…

A little bit of info…

Hi everyone. My name is Megan Albright and on May 17th (can’t believe that’s in less than one month!) I’ll be traveling abroad to Prague, in the Czech Republic for one week. This past semester, I’ve been enrolled in COMM410 -International Mass Communications- here in State College, PA. I’ll be traveling to Prague with three other students from the class, one of the course’s teaching assistants, and the course professor. My trip abroad is part of a new embedded program with the COMM410 course which is being kicked off with our group! Words can’t describe my excitement to experience life outside of the United States (I’ve only ever left the country to go to Canada) and I’m looking forward to sharing many of my experiences with everyone via geoblogging!
