Returning soon
It's been a really long time since my last update, but I swear that's not my fault! I just haven't been to Whitehorse with a computer recently ( Read more... ) -
10-day backpacking trip
The prodigal LiveJournal updater has returned! I'm actually amazed at the semi-regularity of these entries lately ( Read more... ) -
Walking to the Taku River
Unfortunately, I really won't have reliable internet access until the Round River program ends in the beginning of August, so this may be my last update until then. I thought we were in a city, but it turns out Atlin has only 450 year-round residents. Oops ( Read more... ) -
To Canada!
Well, I'm off to Atlin, British Columbia (just a few miles south of the Yukon) to be a research assistant for six weeks. I'm not sure how often I'll have internet access, so I'm saying "bye for now."

Midterm Break

I could promise to be better about it, but I don't really feel bad about living my life rather than writing about it ( Read more... ) -
College days are here to stay
Yay! I've survived nearly two weeks of classes! I'm actually pretty psyched about them. My German course is going well, even if I have to cram vocab every single night. I used up 200 index cards within a week making flashcards!!! Unfortunately, my previous German education's a bit uneven, so the teacher assumes that I'll know actual grammar and ( Read more... ) -
