This song always makes me think of new stages of life. Who will I know, meet, talk to? Where will I be? What will I be doing? What will you be doing? Isn’t it all exciting?! My friend Katie always likes to remind me “A year ago, we didn’t even know each other. Can you…

Oh goodness, here we go
Alright, have I been the worst blogger? Yes, and I’m sorry. But graduating, packing, cleaning, and saying good-byes is a bit more time consuming than I would have imagined. Let’s see if I can play a little catch up: 02 | PASSED MY THESIS DEFENSE (and revisions!) and presented my research at UW Undergraduate Research…
Last day of school!
…and yet there’s so much more to do. I’ll admit it, I started tearing up a little at my computer yesterday because I never wanted to write another paper, I just wanted to go to sleep, and I realized how many more things I have to do. But deep breaths, and soon I’ll be nostalgic…
Pretend it’s Monday
…and that I posted this on time. In other news, I think I’ve picked out a template I want to use when I re-do my blog. I thought about making it match my website, which I will, but I don’t think it will be a perfect match, more of a synthesis of design elements because…
To Bob, Shakespeare, and girls night!
I had such a wonderful Easter weekend with wonderful, wonderful friends! Although I know I should just be putting my nose to the grindstone and chugging away at work, it’s hard to pass up the opportunity to be with my friends when I know that in two weeks we’ll all be going our separate ways,…
In two weeks…
Exactly two weeks from now, I’ll be graduating. Whew. After 3 weeks of crushing chaos, I can finally live again. I’m not close to done yet—I still have a lot of projects due, papers to write, ready to blink at—but I think the worst of it is over. I’ve gotten to crawl out my room,…
So close…

Remember summer times?
Although this was not the official World Cup 2010 song, it should have been. Shakaria? Really? Alas, it was the Coca-Cola World Cup song. K’naan is a hip-hop artist (maybe rap too? I’m not good at distinguishing). Although I don’t generally don’t like rap, I do like K’naan. His music tells a story, his story.…
110: Mapping
I love using NPR as sources on my research project. I’ve decided I’m an audio learner. Listen to the This American Life Episode 110: “Mapping” Sorry I can’t embed the audio player. WordPress can be very lame sometimes.
4 weeks left!
Busy, unproductive weekend. On Friday I applied for a post-baccalaureate school, watched Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blogd (so good!) with Carissa, and cleaned the house. On Saturday, I went to Fort Collins to look for a new ukulele with no success. Came back and prepared for a soirée Carissa and I were hosting for the canyon…
