Despite my threat in my earlier post, I have decided only to update this blog. That will make everyone's life easier. Plus this blog is way better looking than the other one.
Anyway, today we had our second class period for ENVS. Baillie Cloyd came in to talk about service-learning at Truman. I am glad it is something the University considers to be important. I only wish I had know about opportunities like this earlier in my college career.
I am getting more and more excited about our projects as we get closer to leaving. I am really excited about the brochure for El Cano. I realize I was complaining about this two posts ago, but I went to speak with Dr. Amber Johnson (my project advisor), and now I have a better idea of what I will be doing. Plus I have a partner! I will be working with Angie which should be really cool because we determined we're both kind of at the same place as far as this trip goes. We're both graduating in May, taking Bio 100 and working on the same project. Haha, that sounded way more intense as we were walking Barnett than it does written down... Anyway we are meeting with Megan Dowdy at University Publications to get an idea of what this kind of a project will look like. My idea right now is a tri-fold brochure, but we need to figure out how much text and pictures we can put on it. Those kinds of factors will determine what kind of information we need to gather while we are in Panama.
I also had my first science lab since high school today. It vanquished all my doubts about being a humanities major. Not that it wasn't fun; it is just that having to be as precise as one needs to be during an experiment would cause my anxiety levels to raise way more than they need to. I realize that messing up in a 5-person, 100-level Bio class will not result in death, decapitation, zombie apocalypse, or even a lower grade, but I still get very uneasy if things aren't perfect. Hmmm, that sounds like the definition for Neurosis... Perhaps I need a new slice for my identity pie chart. 100% Neurotic.
On a less Freudian note, I am super excited because Courtney (one of the other girls going on the trip) has lots and lots and lots of STAR TREK on her computer that she is going to bring to PANAMA! It almost makes up for the fact that I will be leaving two weeks after LOST starts. Almost.

Hanna, I think you need to stop thinking about your pie in terms of slices and start thinking about layers, like a banana (ha, private joke) cream pie. One layer of 100% daughter, one layer of 100% sister, one layer of 100% Christian, one layer of 100% neurotic, etc.
Might work, although it will be a tall pie. But every slice will contain all of your characteristics.
Love you,
Mom
Oh yeah, I didn't tell you about how I completely disregarded the assignment of a pie chart and made mine to look pretty much like how you are describing it. Great minds think alike :)
Since the graph came out as a quadrilateral instead of a circle, my defense was πr^2
