Today I began registering for classes! So far I'm taking HS-A500 "Theory and Practice of History," and HS-A530 "Studies of Medieval History" since they're introductory and required. I'm excited for the studies class. should be fun. Now for the last class, what will it be? Will I choose the Medieval Studies Certificate class that I eventually need ( Read more... )

Last day of Internship! Must remember to photograph my exhibit. Off I go!

I finished my exhibit! Not the one that I'm merely helping Leigh do a little part of, MY Exhibit! I'm proud can you tell? The seal one is really nice, and I'm glad I got all my points on there.

I’ll go by day to get the events down, and maybe just do a few days to get me started. Today I was very sad when Casey left, and I heard that Fergie song about how "I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket" on my free XM ( Read more... )

Other-Amy and I have agreed that when it comes to Latin, since neither of us are getting a grade, we've totally checked out. I didn't do any homework last night but it was so easy to BS it in class that I was okay with that. I was not ok with how much I didn't know on the quiz when it came to the vocab, but I knew the grammar and verb conjugations ( Read more... )

So, I did start using tags. And today in my quest for relaxation I tagged March, April, May, and June of this year. 'T was a good time ( Read more... )
