Catching Up

Obviously I have been totally slacking on this "blogging" thing I do. 

A lot of that is because of how much work I have and how many activities I do.  But it's also because since I'm trying to get my application for my double major approved, I've been running around from building to building getting a million signatures and sorting through the bureaucratic process of the registrar's office. 

So while that's totally not fun, I am SO PUMPED for my second major and am almost there with the approvals. I need one more signature, and then I turn it into the Humanities and Sciences Dean and wait. However, Dr. Soyinka-Airewele, my Global Studies professor, agreed to be my advisor. Which is awesome. 

I had a group presentation today in that class (entitled "Going Home to Afghanistan: Displacement and the Politics of Return"), and it went well. The only bad part was I had to stand in front of the class for a whole hour and a half.  It is not fun when you really have to sneeze but can't for approximately 60 of those 90s minutes. I may or may not have looked like a crazy person. 

Oh, and today I got a graduate school pamphlet in the mail from Georgetown. Already. REALLY?

I am so not ready for that process again. Give me a year. Or two.
