Just arrived back in the United States after vising South Africa for a week. It was an amazing experience and I look forward to filling everyone in about everything that happened. I'm preparing for the transition that I will need to make over the next few days. From the logistics of needing to do laundry, buy books for fall classes and go grocery shopping to adjusting to my surroundings, I know

It's hard to believe that just a few weeks ago I learned about this amazing opportunity to work with the Emergent Media Center, Population Media Center and the United Nations. Over the last few weeks I've learned so much about a culture that is not my own. I can only imagine what I am about to experience. Not many people have opportunities like this. During research I have had my fears and doubts

Did I mention I scored a free three-day pass to the Cornish Fair for my work on the posters? Sweet deal. Just saved myself $24!

It's almost the end of July and I am wondering where my summer has gone. In a month I'll be back in school-mode and it will be good bye summer for another year. One tell-tale sign that the summer is ending - books titles are being posted for classes on the online bookstore. Usually I put off purchasing my books, but this year I got an early start. The week before classes I usually rush around

Posters are finished. I created these posters for the Cornish Fair Association to advertise the Karaoke Contest and the Cornish Fair. The fair will be held August 15, 16, and 17, 2008 at the fairgrounds in Cornish, NH. Small town, big fun.____________So, what's next? My goal for the next two weeks is to finish my internship hours. Completing my hours will hopefully free up some time in my

The fair has always been a big part of my life. When you grow up in such a small town where there is usually nothing to do a three day fair is a BIG DEAL. Or at least to me it always was. Until the age of probably 10 or 11 I was just another fair-going bystander. I watched the spectacle; I wasn't the spectacle. The fair is where I joined the 4-H Horse Huggers. Chuckle if you must, but this group

I've finally jumped onto the blogspot bandwagon. Actually I thought I had one but apparently I was wrong. Either way it would have been an old account. I've used livejournal for years and still do but why the sudden change of heart? A few friends got blogspots to document their travels, to talk about the conferences they go to, to spy on the people that document their travels and talk about the
