Reasons why no one will ever see me again:
-I have the most insane schedule ever. Out of the ten classes I listed before I chose the hardest five, with no electives, one 500 level grad course, two 400 levels, two 300 levels, and three research papers. They completely surprised me though, I might be the least worried about my 500 level game theory class, my 400 level natural resource economics class seems easy enough (but with a paper). I have to do a huuuuge research project for my Urban Economics class, although it seems like a really cool class and my first class here which is small enough for my professor to actually get a chance to know me (shut up everyone in small liberal arts colleges). It might not be that bad however because she said counting buses at a bus stop is a legitimate project. And I have a paper for my 400 level IPE class.
-I still work at the phonathon, and am slowly turning it into my own personal soap opera.
-I really like the idea of volunteering at a fair trade store like Meg does. Why did I have to find out about this in my hardest semester ever? So there goes some time.
-Reading week I'm probably going to Florida.
-I may be spending the summer working in Geneva.
-Also does anyone know if you have to be a grad student in order to TA, or can you do it after you graduate? That may be something interesting to do with my extra semester.
Now off to my phonathon meeting. Later LJ land.
