Jen's Travels: December 2007

So, since I know that at least one person still reads this, I figure it's time for an update. I'm not quite sure where the past two and a half months have gone. Friday was the last day of the semester, with finals beginning tomorrow. I guess this has been the most academically challenging semester, as I've been hard a work at the two senior project/theses, among other the other courses I need to finish so I can get out of here on time. I've submitted applications for three different programs next year: Fulbright research in Germany, Physical Therapy Doctorate at Chapman (California), and Physical Therapy Doctorate at Pacific (Oregon). Next semester will still be packed, but there will be considerably less on my plate. It will now be a matter of waiting to see what the reviewers think of my applications, and, if nobody wants me...I get to find a job, which would also not be so bad, especially since I Henjoy what I study. Right after graduation, I am going on a service project course to Peru this summer. We will be working among Indian Tribes along the Amazon River, and I'm so excited for this experience!

But it hasn't been all work up here. I've had my time for fun too (not as much as in Germany, but hey...what is ever going to compare to that!)The rain has of course set in here, so I can't wait to finally have a few weeks of California "winter".

Here's some pics of the semester/life up in Oregon:
