\nKINGSTON, R.I. — December 13, 2006 — 溏心vlog免费B站 senior Miranda O\u2019Hayer will travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina in February to study for five months. Some of her classes will be taught in English, others will be taught in Spanish. O\u2019Hayer doesn\u2019t speak Spanish.<\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cI wanted to do something that really scares me,\u201d explains O\u2019Hayer who has never been on an airplane. <\/p>\n


\n\tO\u2019Hayer has pursued both English and French at 溏心vlog免费B站. She always thought she would study at the University d\u2019Orleans in France where the University has a direct exchange. It would be organized and safe.<\/p>\n


\n\tShe decided to challenge herself by traveling the road not often taken. Her twin sister, Irene, who studies nutrition and Spanish at 溏心vlog免费B站, inspired her. Irene studied in Puebla, Mexico and had a great experience, and so Miranda chose Argentina.<\/p>\n


\n\tO\u2019Hayer will be immersed in the Spanish language in Argentina but she hasn\u2019t spoken it since high school. <\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cThe trip will be a wonderful experience for me as a student, a traveler, and an admirer of Latin American culture,\u201d says O\u2019Hayer who was awarded a $3,000 Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship, one of 400 students to receive the award out of 1,189 applicants. Combining the scholarship and an additional $500 Gilman scholarship bonus she received through the American Institute for Foreign Study with money she has saved, she is able to pay for the trip. \u201cIt\u2019s a lot of money,\u201d says the North Kingstown resident who has worked long hours at the Italian Village restaurant in Wakefield to put herself through school. <\/p>\n


\n\tO\u2019Hayer will study at the University of Belgrano until June. \u201cWhen I return, I would no longer be an undergraduate,\u201d she says, noting she plans to take a year off and apply to graduate schools. \u201cI view my trip Argentina to be a culmination of hard work and curiosity, as well as a step away from the past and toward future endeavors.\u201d<\/p>\n
