It's midterm time here, which means I don't have a lot to report. This weekend I spent both Friday and Saturday at the State Library researching and writing papers. Writing this blog post is actually a way for me to procrastinate finishing another paper. The good news is Friday is the first day of my Easter break and in a week from today I'm off to Tasmania for 5 days. So there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Luckily for me (and you as readers of my blog), I still have things to share! One of the leaders from my program, Chay, finally put pictures up from orientation! If you'll remember all those weeks ago, when I wrote about surfing and kayaking, I promised some pics. I went through all 1000 pictures he had up (yes, that many) to find ones of me, which was slightly difficult when there are 32 kids in the water with surfboards and wetsuits. Bear with me on it, for some you may have to just take my word that it's me.

I never would have imagined you out on a surf board. By the way, in your last picture, you bear a startling resemblance to your mother. Not a bad thing, just striking.

I am sorry to say I have to agree with Dad, only you look a lot better in a wetsuit.
ReplyDeleteThe weather looks chilly and gray. I hope the water was warmer than it has been at Cape Cod the last couple of visits.
I am looking forward to more pictures of fat Kangaroos and toher exciting wildlife form Tasmania.
