Tony and Joe's Seafood Place Address: 3000 K St. NW Metro stop: Rosslyn, Orange and Blue Line
While some students spent their summer waiting tables, working in retail or stuck inside cramped offices, others were doing something a bit more interesting with their three-month break from AU.
Washington, D.C. is not a cheap city. Compared to smaller cities and towns, the overall cost of living can be intimidating. However, there are ways of getting around these expenses. Rather than frequenting restaurants in trendy sections of the city or shopping for groceries at the Eagle's Nest, look for less crowded places to dine and scout out local stores that offer cheap bargains. This guide offers some suggestions on how to live life cheaply in D.C.
While D.C. offers a wide variety of shopping, dining and social life, other areas nearby are worth a visit. Bethesda, located on the Metro's Red Line, is an upscale town that boasts an impressive milieu of restaurants. Although the town caters more toward expensive tastes, and is considered by many to be a haven for yuppies, it still possesses a funky side.
Each college has its own set of slang words. Whether the words make fun of buildings on campus or are simply abbreviated versions of names, they're used by all. It's easy to pick AU slang, but here's a helpful guide:
Best Way to Spend a Summer Afternoon
Well, this is it. The day that this last column is published, I will have exactly two weeks and four days left in Rome.
A group of college-aged guys are walking down the street together. Classes are over for the week, and it's a nice day out, so everyone is feeling relaxed.
After more than 35 hours of traveling, I finally made it back to Rome. The overnight train was crowded and dirty, the ferry rides seemed to last forever, the man behind me on the plane wouldn't stop coughing, and the 12-hour overnight bus ride was pure misery.
It's been a hectic past few days here. As European weather seems to do, the forecast changed from sunshine and high temperatures this week to rain and a sudden cold spell.
Here's a warning to students who plan to study abroad in Rome in the future: beware of the public transportation system.
Being the eternal worrier that I am, I had some fears before I left to go abroad. What if something terrible happened back in the United States? Would I be able to come home, or would I have to deal with the situation from thousands of miles away?
"Sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite." I know my mother told it to me each night before bed until I was about six years old. I used to lie in bed imagining big red and blue bugs crawling underneath my sheets.
Last night I happened upon my day planner, buried underneath my school books. I opened it up and saw that Jan. 19 was the last date crossed off, the day that I left for Rome. It took me a minute to get over the initial shock of realizing that I haven't even thought about time management since I've been in Rome.
Because of its central location, Rome offers many travel opportunities. It doesn't take too long to get to other places in Italy by train, and most international flights out of local airports are cheap and quick. These advantages give many students one goal: To travel as much as possible on the weekends.
I've been told that I arrived in Italy at the wrong time. For unknown reasons, the weather here has been colder than normal. While the temperatures have been in the 40s at their lowest - a heat wave compared to the frigid New Jersey temperatures I grew used to over winter break - the cold spell has kept Italians indoors for the most part.
Pasta primavera. Caprese. Ravioli con funghi.
Hi there. My name's Blair Payne, and I'm a junior studying abroad this semester in Rome, Italy. Last semester, I was the co-Arts and Entertainment Editor of The Eagle. This semester, I've gone from "In Control Editor" to "Clueless American Student in a Completely Foreign Place."
