It's October!

I was tempted to not post again until the 9th considering I don't get much response with this anyway.

This month has been uneventful--lots of class and assignments and the semester is really almost over. I'm counting down b/c it's gone on for long enough. One of my classes (Third World) is really overkill in the work department.
On the grades issue--I should be pulling Bs in everything, but dammit, that's not good enough! It makes me mad. All depends on the finals, which are at least 50% of the final grade. UGH

I'm afloat though. The biggest challenge is that my laptop power adapter is dying pretty fast and only works in specific positions. I'd like to have it looked at, but I have to wait until I'm in a country with an Apple store. I'm trying to figure out how to get a new one to hold me over for the rest of the month.

I haven't done anything at all--travelwise--since spring break, but this weekend is a trip to the West Coast to see spring flowers. Yay free lunch too!

There are three large papers I have due next Friday, then the next Monday, then the next Wednesday. The topics are fascinating and I think I know what I want to study post-grad....

If anyone has any suggestions about where to go after the semester ends, please let me know!
