Hi, journal!
Mar. 16th, 2011 10:50 amSo much for updating regularly... It was a nice thought, anyway.
Things have been going fine in my corner of the world. The Illinois AER conference that I mentioned in my last entry was good. Dalton did very well navigating around the hotel, the keynote speeches and breakout sessions were informative and interesting, (some more than others), and it was really fun to be able to spend some time with many of my classmates just hanging out.
School continues to go well. I had a midterm last Wednesday, which I think went relatively well. I can think of one part that I messed up on, but my philosophy is that you are allowed one total mess-up on a test. It shouldn't kill me, in any event. I think that I have another test next week, (this week is spring break), but I need to check on that to be sure. I am in the midst of applying to the center in Connecticut where I hope to do my internship next spring. There was a bit of a fiasco with that, but I think it has all been sorted as of now.
Speaking of spring break, I just got back to DeKalb yesterday evening after being in Chicago since Friday afternoon. I had a seminar to attend that was put on by the Illinois NFB on Saturday, and then afterwords, I went and visited some of my cousins who are in the area. It was so nice to be able to spend the past few days with them. I had a lot of fun, majorly enjoyed myself, and their kids are adorable! As for the rest of break, I'm not entirely positive what is in the cards. I do have some work that needs to get done, but as part of spring break is the word "break", I should probably take some time for myself. I don't do that nearly often enough.
I'm not entirely sure what else to update on, so I think I will end this and post. I do notice that I have been getting a lot of spam comments on my entries lately. Has anyone else experienced this? I am not a fan! I also apologize for not keeping up with Friends' page lately. If there is anything important that I should be aware of, feel free to comment or contact me and let me know. Regardless, I still do care. Life has this habbit of getting in the way. I'm sure many if not all of you can understand.
Take care all, more when it happens.
