(My second or third day here in the child's department of a store)Hey!
I found three articles about me studying abroad:
Article One
Another recipient of the Gilman scholarship and second-year international business, economics and entrepreneurship student Taylor Odom will be representing USC this semester in the Netherlands at the University of Groningen. Having never traveled overseas before, Odom said she chose Groningen because it is was not the average choice.“I didn’t want to go somewhere common, or anywhere touristy. I really wanted an authentic, un-American adventure,” Odom said. Fortunately, Odom has already made friends with a Groningen student who will show her the sites of the Netherlands from a native’s perspective.To receive the scholarship, applicants were required to invent their own post-study abroad project in order to inform others about the scholarship. Odom said it is best to do something that will make you stand out.“I am creating a cookbook with random facts about the Netherlands with information about the Gilman Scholarship as well,” she said.

Article Two
Four Moore School Students Earn Gilman International Scholarships
Four Darla Moore School undergraduates have been awarded Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarships to study abroad. Sponsored by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, the scholarship program aims to diversify the kinds of students who study abroad and the countries and regions in which they travel.The business students were among 13 University of South Carolina students receiving Gilman awards worth a total of $45,000 for Spring 2010, more than any other university in the Southeast. A total of 1,700 scholarships are awarded each year in the U.S.Applicants are required to submit an essay and include plans for a post-study abroad project to inform others about the scholarship. Creative projects are encouraged.Sophomore Taylor Odom, who will attend the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, plans to compile recipes during her trip abroad and incorporate those into a small cookbook that will also include anecdotes from her travels, while informing readers about the Gilman Scholarship.“I want to have a true study abroad experience and completely immerse myself in the culture,” Odom said. Odom, who will major in business economics and management and minor in Chinese while at Carolina

The End.
On another note: I am spending the weekend studying (wow...what a party animal)...but I am going to take my bike (with a deflated tire) and attempt to get it fixed and also bike around a park that is close to my house today. If anything is pretty, I will be sure to take a picture for you all!
Yes, tomorrow I may go see a windmill...who knows. Depends on the weather and how far away it is...
Okay! That is all for now! Perhaps another update later today with pictures?
