I'm going to Greece?!



Hey guys! Sorry it's been awhile since my last blog post, I've been busy with work and I just started college again.

Speaking of college, I have some interesting news! If you can't tell by the title, I have the chance to go to one of my dream places in the world .I'm making this blog to inform you about an International Education program offered at my college; SUNY Adirondack. This coming May, the Anthropology classes(along with students from different majors) are taking a trip to Greece. This trip is for 2 weeks in May and will count as a credit for college. As of now I don't have a lot of information due to the fact college just started. I do know the main reason we're going is to "visit the heartland of art, science, anthropology, archaeology, and the humanities."(got this off the poster I was given) In this group i'll keep everyone updates and different fundraisers I'll be doing until the end of April.Feel free to share this blog/any events.

Below I have the widget that you're able to donate at. I'll keep everyone updated about different events that I hold and how much I've made.

Reading Goals for 2018

Hey everyone! ( γεια σε όλους ! [gotta practice that Greek])  I haven't written about books in awhile mainly about how i'm going to Greece in the spring. Last year I read 44 books out of my goal of 40, which is surprising because I took about 2 months of not reading anything due to the end of the semester and working. In September when I started driving back and forth to college again, instead of listening to music, I decided to listen to books. Audible really helped me get out of my book lump and I've read 10 books in 3 months and two weeks of driving back and forth. I would also listen to the books during the weekend when I was cleaning my room or if I had to drive somewhere. On Goodreads, I wanted to clean up my selves a bit, so I created a new shelf "own not read" and I marked all the books I currently own( e-books and physical) instead of marking them as "to read". I currently have 239 physical books, minus a few textbooks from college, most...

Between 1821 and 1832 CE, the Greeks fought a war of independence against the occupying Ottoman Turks. On 20 th October, 1827 CE a naval battle was fought in the bay at Pylos. The Battle of Navarino was fought by the Greeks and their allies; Britain, France and Russia, against the Ottoman Turks. This was a decisive defeat for the Ottoman and Egyptian forces, and a pivotal victory for the Greeks, who’s success at Navarino led to eventual Greek independence. The Battle of Navarino was the last major naval battle in history to be fought entirely with sailing ships, although most ships fought whilst at anchor. The Allies' victory was achieved through superior firepower and gunnery. The involvement of the English and French was pr...
