Counting Down to Spring Break

Apart from my mental health, the rest of my life seems to be coming together. My proposal for summer research is due tomorrow, so it's coming to a close. I declared my major and more or less planned out ways to fill my requirements. I start volunteering at the New Americans Preparatory School (the public school for immigrants/refugees/non-English speakers) this coming Tuesday. I'm really excited for that. I am going to a group lunch with my major adviser and Cultural Anthro professor tomorrow, which I am also excited for. This Saturday I am attending The Book of Mormon, the musical at the FOX with a couple Rodriguez friends. It's part of an outing sponsored by our residential college. We get to see the show and have dinner for ONLY $10. So I'm taking advantage of that. Then Sami is coming to visit Sunday because the snow and exams have caused more than a month break since we've seen each other. I have a paper due and an exam next week, but then it's spring break! Friday night I'm taking the Greyhound bus to Decatur, where Katie goes to college. Then she and I are driving back to Columbia on Saturday, likely via Lincoln's Presidential Library.
I have a really busy spring break planned once I get home! I'm going to visit my ELL kids at school often, and I'm attending the Life Sciences and Society Symposium about kinship. And I'm also going to walk in the first ever Columbia National Eating Disorder Association walk to raise money. And I am also going to spend time with you, mom and dad, and Sami. I can't wait to see you!!!

Also, I'm having severe pet withdrawal.

Love,
Kat
