Hey Everyone!
Things here have been pretty laid back lately. We had a few
birthdays on the Hall, Jane's (from North Carolina) on Wednesday,
Laura's on Thursday and Caitlin on Monday. There was much frivolity
of which Erica and I participated in only a slight amount, joining
everyone for a few drinks on the town. For Laura's birthday we made
cupcakes a-la my Maine roomate's boyfriend Dave Scott! You can see a
picture of them here. Erica and I claim that they are the most
Environmentally Friendly cupcakes as there is no paper wrappers and
very little clean up mess ;) Instead of wrappers, one uses Ice Cream
cones! A delicious Treat.
Also,
we have been working on a paper we have due for our Physical
Oceanography class. The paper was based on the salinity, climate,
and density of the Mediterranean and Black Sea areas, as well as the
formation of Sapropels in that region. I had a lot of fun writing it
and I feel like I am learning a lot this semester which I am VERY
happy about (needless to say I'm sure Mark is happy about that
too!).
Also, we have been making plans for spring break. I'll let Erica
talk about her plans in her next entry, however my plans include a
night in Frankfurt, then a week in Japan (yes JAPAN!!!!! I can't
wait!!!) then back to Frankfurt for 2 nights, then 2 nights in
Sweeden, a night in Glasgow, and then back home. Also, I am going to
a Manic Street Preacher's concert in Liverpool and might join Erica
and Susan in Spain and Greece (depending on how much money I have ).
I am very excited for it all.
Check back soon for Erica's plans and my entry for the trip to
London I am taking in a few weeks!
