Ha. wow. forgot i had this thing lol.
anyway. Seeing as i don't really have any followers it doesn't really matter what i say on here, so i'll just talk about my life as of right now.
Second semester of sophomore year started last week. I'm surprised as to how fast college is going by...I guess i should take advantage of this time while it is in front of me. I'm taking pretty awesome classes this semester. Really intriguing..these classes make me think and keep my mind busy, which is a nice change of pace. Probably one of my favorite classes is my Art in Italian Renaissance: we talk about Italy during that time period; the artists. It's remarkable. Probably the only reason i'm interested in that is due (in large) by my humanities teacher and a person i consider a very close friend of mine (oh yea. shout out to you ms. schild..seeing as you are probably going to be the only one reading this haha). Just like in my first day of humanities, we learned about the definition of art...and this is what my professor came up with, "Art must be a part of the idea or context of the composer...art must be understood in the same mindset as to the time period it was constructed.." maybe you can use that in your class? :)
I'm also learning about how anthropology is used in contemporary world problems such as: genocide, eating disorders/diabetes, disasters etc. It's truly quite fascinating.
Along side that, i have applied for an internship in the National museum of Natural history at the Smithsonian in Washington D.C.. I'm supposed to be hearing back from them shortly, so "cross fingers" i hope i get it!
In other news. I am now the Chapter Life VP (second in command) of my sorority :) and although it comes with tough decisions and complications, i love it.
I don't know what else to discuss...It's cold here in Iowa City haha. To be expected in January in the Midwest.
All in all, life is wonderful. I do not think i have been this content and happy in quite some time. I'm taking advantage of it and loving every minute of it :)
I appreciate those of you who read this. Until next time.
xoxo
