It astonishes me that the semester is quickly coming to a close! Although I am quite excited, it also means tons and tons of paper deadlines are approaching!!!!! Life here is still a cycle but once you find things to do it seems to lessen the effect. I have a lot of work to do which is why I have been somewhat neglecting my photo taking. I'm in a much more positive mood and I've actually been having some fun times. Just last week some friends and I went to the school's production of Fall opera scenes. So many fun opportunities are arising... I am excited because this week we don't have school on wednesday and so I am taking a trip to the local art museum which will be wonderful!
