Well, it's that time again when we must turn off the televisions in the evenings, say 'no' to happy hour invitations, and muster up the self-discipline to crack the books open and study! study! study! Today was like jumping into a freezing lake: SHOCKING!

I'm taking the following classes:

Mass Communication & Public Health,

Children's Health: Issues & Policies,

Healthcare Systems and Public Health, and

Masters Thesis

Next week I begin rehearsals for a series of performances at the National Theater of Budapest come early March, which is very exciting, but juggling work, rehearsals, and school work definitely takes its toll...

This week our research team is currently working on abstract submissions for the Internation AIDS Conference in Mexico City in August, in addition to the American Public Health Association's annual conference in October. I'm excited to attend these truly great conferences.

Gearing up for a busy Spring,
