I know most people are thinking that I've fallen of the face of the planet because I've not posted, but to be honest, I've not had much time. I've been working like a bird dog all summer. Let me give a short recap of the highlights ( Read more... )

Today, I got my placement for GEOS. I will be staying in Niihama, Japan in the Ehime prefecture.

I still can't believe that one week from today, all my finals will be over and I'll have nothing left to do except cross that stage and get the little piece of paper.
