In other news,

I'm away at school now in Beloit, Wisconsin. I absolutely adore this place and I've met so many wonderful and fascinating people. I feel like I'm in a wonderful place in my life, a sort of continuation of the last year that I never expected.

My final year of high school was incredible, an adventure I couldn't have imagined. At the end of the year I found myself repeatedly realizing that I had never been so happy in my life, and that sort of wonderful feeling of place, that feeling of direction (however vague) that tells me to keep going is still with me.

My trip to Europe this summer is still dancing in my head. So many adventures and thoughts packed into such a brief eruption of time... I've been working on the photos I took there on and off all summer and they'll continue to provide fodder for my creative fire for some time.

I'm enrolled in courses on Ancient Greek, German Studies, Medieval History, and Biological Anthropology this semester, maybe adding a half-semester course on Ancient Manuscripts later on.

Just a brief update, but one that was long overdue.


How are you all?
