Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: Shuffling off the coils
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012/08/shuffling-off-coils.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Sunday, August 19, 2012. Shuffling off the coils. I'm getting ready for moving day. It sounds needlessly morbid, but all of this giving away business is quite reminiscent of a preparation for death. You know- the plotting, misguided suicidals who show their cards by giving stuff away to those who might want inert objects more than they want to have you around? My porcelain swan that's got a music box in its base?

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: Un Peuple, Un But, Trois Fois
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012/08/un-peuple-un-but-trois-fois.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Thursday, August 23, 2012. Un Peuple, Un But, Trois Fois. We're taking a little pause. But I'm not here to do a blog entry about the moving process. That subject will surely follow this one; at the moment I'm eyeballing a tower of boxes at my left, and at my right I'm looking at my window view of a dark front of storm clouds slowly creeping towards Point E. Q" (forgive me for any indiscretions I have done to you ov...

Journey to the East 东游记: Around China: Chengdu - 成都
http://fareastfullers.blogspot.com/2011/11/around-china-chengdu.html
Sunday, November 6, 2011. Around China: Chengdu - 成都. So there we are in Chengdu. We had two full days before our schedule meeting at the Consulate so we took the opportunity to see some of the sights. In addition to their pandas, the research base also boasted a pretty nice park with some good walking paths. One of the better ones was a boardwalk that went around a lake which was a particular favorite of the boys. That night, we hopped back on a plane and headed home. The nice thing about having our...

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: Moving Day
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012/08/moving-day.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Sunday, August 26, 2012. Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify, simplify! I say, let your affairs be as two or three, and not a hundred or a thousand; instead of a million count half a dozen, and keep your accounts on your thumb-nail. Thoreau (and definitely not Megan). I can scarcely believe it to be true, but it would appear that Days of Our Senegalese Lives is coming to an end. Today we're her...

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: The Innocents Abroad: Doing Without
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-innocents-abroad-doing-without.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Friday, August 10, 2012. The Innocents Abroad: Doing Without. It's going to be impossible for me to tackle this subject without inciting a few accusations of hypocrisy, but I'm going to do my best and write it anyway. Doing without. These are the two words that I hesitate to use. What exactly does that mean, anyway? Going without in West Africa? I mean, my beautiful modern apartment boasts American-procured items l...

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: Sewing Tradition
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012/08/sewing-tradition.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Some things never go out of style. Not too many days left here in Dakar, and while the weather alternates between le soleil ça tappe. The sun is beating down) and mon dieu. This rain is no joke. I have sought calming activities spent indoors with good friends. She's got a full studio at home, but this is where she does alterations on the fly. Listen: Marie is a really talented tailor....

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: June 2012
http://uiscebatha.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Saturday, June 30, 2012. Marathon des Cèdres: Alhamdoulilah. You 1'd this publicly. Undo. The wonder is, he hath endured. Video by fellow Cedars runner Brian. Judging by my morning trip into the woods to use the "facilities", it would appear that we indeed are. Then you probably know that I am no great fan of monkeys. They're nothing but opportunistic thieves- and I just kept watching this runner and. Before settin...

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad: The Innocents Abroad: Street Food

Megan's Third Junior Year Abroad. There might be a few more cracks than usual in this one. Wednesday, August 1, 2012. The Innocents Abroad: Street Food. What I am about to say may be considered a bit scandalous to anyone who is a real.Senegophile? Is that even a word? Hell, my once grammatically-sharp brain is now so complètement mélangé. With French vocab that I will never again be able to say things in English with complete confidence that they are correct. But I digress! There I said it. What I will s...
