So much to do

Papers, tests, assignments...AHHHH!

It's getting to be that time of the semester again. Which actually isn't that bad because I think this will be my last one. Fourth semester will be all about writing my these (which has its own special kinds of anxiety) and IF I do a doctorate, there won't be any classes comprised of things not related to what I want to write about. I've been spending multiple hours a day working on Gender and IR, US Foreign policy, Statistics and Modernization and Development. Sadly, Arabic has fallen a bit by the wayside. I will get back on it, though.

I recently had to delve into the JNU Library for one of my bibliographies. I felt a bit Indiana Jones-ish

Lara Croft ain't got nothin on this

I've still been managing to go to Yoga and work out every day which is nice, considering that we'll be going to Varanasi this coming week and I won't have any sort of the kind of schedule I've gotten used to. 

Despite all of the craziness, I still managed to get in my weekly excursion off-campus:

Some things were different but it still had that crunchy-organic-granola flavor to it 

The opportunity to check out an organic market was just something that I couldn't pass up, given the fact that I did the same in Argentina. I didn't do any field research this time but,suffice it to say, it was interesting. I also managed to get a nifty new notebook. 

I want to try a bit more creative writing. Blogging and term papers are fun and all but I think I have other things to express.
