PHL 453

Well, that was exciting. I just did a very abrupt and impromptu self-introduction to professor and associate chair of philosophy Gifford, asking for an override into his PHL 453: Ethics of Global Health class. Granted, though he now probably finds me slightly insane. Meets Monday and Wednesday afternoons...so here we go!

ANP 491 is cancelled...

Deep, deep sadness. ANP 491 is cancelled. Whatever shall I do? No Islam in Africa. Sad Becca. Must figure out what to replace with...

And here we go...

International Relations II starts in seven minutes. Here we go, world. Professor Axelrod is in the building. (Well, classroom. But that doesn't sound as cool.)
Have a glorious day - I'm certainly going to!

Applied for Israel!

I applied for the Israel study abroad program today! Good to have that off the to-do list. Sadness is that neither one of the programs involved required an essay. I assumed they did and so wrote one. Oh well. Such is life. Got me started on the scholarship essays, so that was good.

The Beauty of Non-Science Courses...

12:40 Disease in Society (Epidemiology)

Tuesday

Seriously. I'm done at 1:30 every day but Wednesday. And I have no classes on Friday. What on earth am I going to do with myself?

Home!

I am, happily, home. Woohoo! And despite my having turned the heat completely off while I was gone, no permanent frozen pipe damage seems to have been done. Yay!
Thank you, Mum, Papa, and Granna, for a lovely time in Florida. It's good to be back in the tundra...
: )

Back in Mount Pleasant

We have all survived the drive from Florida and Mum, Dad, and I are back in Mount Pleasant. Will hang out for the rest of the day with a few folks, stay the night, and go home tomorrow. Vacation was lovely, but I will be glad indeed to be home.
Love you all - Happy New Year!
