Sorry so long since I last posted. I have been really, really busy...Here are the real hightlights...
1) December 2008, Graduated from college with degrees in both Political Science (government) and History.
2) After Graduation, we to Washington D.C. for a week. Saw so much and never enough...
3) January, 2009: Started Graduate School. Took 3 classes (considered full time for grad school), while being a GA for a History class and working part-time during the weekend.
4) June, 2009: Semester ended. I got 3 "A"s in grad school. But can not rest on my laurels. Starting class in Maymester. Going to the United Kingdom for 2 weeks for class. Going up to Scotland and down to Wales, then back to London and over to York, Coventry, Stratford-upon-Avon.
5) June, 2009: Got back from UK, on 2nd day I fell at the National Portrait Gallery in London on their marble floor on my knees..my rebuilt left knee....Professor wanted to send me home but I said "screw that!! I paid for this class" and stuck it out. Had my knee compressed all day and put ice and heat on it at night. I had swelling from my knees down and it hurt really back. But I ended up taking over 1500 pictures while I was there. About 860 are really good..I will get to posting them in the next week or so..
6) June, 2009: Got grade from UK class trip...Another "A"!! I currently have a 4.0 GPA in grad school. But I can't enjoy it...starting class right now..Indepent study class where I will be reading and researching several post-colonial theorist (Babba, Said, Foucalt, etc..). Then in July, taking another 2 classes..Plan is to have 30 hours compeleted by the end of 2009..Only need 36 for Masters degree.
Going to start working out again next week (actually on Sunday). Lost some weight. Went down a pant size, but need to be from fat-burning, not from not eating...
That's it for now...if you want additional details...let me know..
