I am done with my summer science program and am back in Nashua.  The last weekend before I left I went to New York City with my friend Kim.  We saw Avenue Q, went to the MoMA, wandered around central park, and ate authentic Japanese food.  It was a great trip.  This past week I helped out at vacation bible school.  I was a puppet squirrel named ( Read more... )

CONGRATULATIONS

ON

GRADUATING

KEEL!!!

AND TO THE REST OF THE CLASS OF 2007!

I am back at Smith chemistry research again this summer. I'm working with the same professor, on a similar project. So far it has been enjoyable. This time I am Professor Bickar's only chemistry student, since Yaffa has moved on to new things. This means that I get two fume hoods and the equipment to myself, which is kind of nice. There are ( Read more... )

Its been awhile since I've updated. This past semester has been a crazy busy one that didn't have enough time for sleeping sometimes, let alone updating LJ. But, its over now. Tests are taken, papers are written, and finals are complete. I even found out that I got a B in both of my chemistry classes. (Unlike some, I am content with B's, ( Read more... )

I passed calculus!!! Calc III was really hard, so I took it pass/fail and I was nervous that I would fail, but I didn't! I did better than I expected in chemistry too, which is exciting. German and World Music were very good, as I expected. These grades were a good end to a not so great semester.

Its been awhile, so I should probably update this. The end of the semester was very stressful, but there were lots of fun moments too. I rearranged the furniture in my dormroom and it is now the place to watch movies, which is pretty cool. I survived finals, but barely, and with the help of several eggnog lattes. I did really well on my ( Read more... )

Last Thursday was Otelia Cromwell Day, which is when Smith cancels afternoon classes in honor of the first African-American graduate and has a keynote speaker and several workshops. The speaker this year was Vernice Miller-Travis who works with enviromental justice issues. She was saying how most people do not think race and the environment have ( Read more... )

This weekend was filled with concerts and cool stuff. On Friday I saw a play called Delicious Rivers, which was about the interesting connections between four people who work at a post office and three of the customers. It used a lot of mathematical concepts, and it was really cool. On Saturday I saw the Senegal-America Project at the Academy of ( Read more... )
