Update.

Because I am bored and have nothing else to do, I remembered that I have one of these Blogger accounts. Noting this, I thought it would be a great time to update the thing. Of course, now that I am here and have to actually type in the update - I hesitate to continue further. . .I will be brief.

• I am in Peru. I am volunteering and conducting field research. I will be here for four more weeks.
• I got a severe infection while in Peru. Lesson learned: do not stop drinking water.
• I am 20 years old now. This monumentous year signifies nothing monumental save that I have lived in Michigan equally as long as I lived in Utah, my dog -Muusta - is 10 years old this year, and I am getting older.
• I was in Hawaii and Mexico earlier this summer. Hawaii to present research. Mexico to help coordinate the Common Table Project.
• Despite prior plans to go to Ecuador this fall, I have been applying for internships in Washington D.C. I would much prefer being in the U.S. where I can have contact with family and friends more frequently.
• I listen to sappy romantic songs almost anytime I listen to music nowadays. I do not know why I do this.
• I have been craving food not soaked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, not covered in MSG or NaCl, not processed to the point that I have no fiber in my diet. Health food, what?
• When I get home, I am walking my dog and watching the Notebook - after, I eat a bag full of grapes and stuff my face with brown rice and NO SALT.
• I am going to England for two weeks for a Conflict Resolution thingy.
• I miss Andrew.
