Only Bears Should Hibernate

Hello All,

I think this might have been my longest disappearance from social media, which is by no means an attempt to justify my absence, just an observation.  I find "going off the grid," is somewhat of a guilty pleasure, but it's not okay, given that I have so much of my life to share with you.

Overall winter term has sped by, filled with the reading, homework, and exams.  My courses this term, as I'm now realizing I have not even shared, include: Buddhism, Sociology of Law, and Global Issues.  I took Buddhism after realizing my affinity for Eastern religions in Hinduism.  Sociology of law is a requirement for my major (hence, I love it be default) and Global Issues fulfills a college core requirement.

In addition to classes, I am working on a research paper on prescription drug abuse, which I will present, along with a classmate, at a conference at the end of March.  I'm really excited for this opportunity, as it represents my gradual entrance into the professional world.

As I start to think about my future, I am both ecstatic, yet with reservation and a certain amount of anxiety.  Because of this, I made an appointment with the Career Development Center, who works with students here to build resumes and eventually find internships and jobs.

I'm sorry I've been gone for so long, hibernation is for bears only.  In fact, the last time I wrote, I was attending a college....and as I'm sure how my fellow bloggers have informed you, we are now Mercyhurst University.  Pretty impressive, Mercyhurst.

Happy February and all the best,
Paige
