Another semester bites it. I turned in my last paper earlier today.

Since I'm not travelling this year for the holiday, that means nothing but free time until next semester starts. Well, if you ignore the jury duty in January. And the script writing I need to do for Follies. And the fundraising for The Vagina Monologues. Anyway, I may get a computer game.

What else to report? Hmm, well, not having a lot of luck with the job hunt. Got rejected this morning for a fellowship I spent 6 months working on. That was disappointing. I guess add "job applications" to the list of things I'm doing over the break.

I've been on a few dates recently. Since classes ended I've been making an effort to get out there. If nothing else, I've met a few great people and had some fun nights out.

Oh, yeah, there was that whole South Africa trip. My first time off the continent! It was a great experience. We spent two days in Johannesburg and five days in Cape Town. Aside from the work we were doing for the clinic, we got to check out the Apartheid Museum on our first day and on our last two days we took a trip down the Cape of Good Hope and then to the top of Table Mountain. So many great memories.

  1. You are always so damn busy. Even in your off time!
    Sorry to hear about the fellowship. Their loss. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that you find something wonderful.
    Love the trip photos – especially the last one of you and the ostrich by the water.
    Hope your holidays are relaxing – you deserve it!

  2. HURRAY FOR SCHOOL. Maybe if I get into grad school I will steal from you and do a gradschoolometer (I’ll obviously have to come up with a better name if it happens). Good luck on the bar exam! My co-worked just took it and scored in the 30th percentile. I hope you do better!
