Hello Global Studies

This is a liveblog.. .

I am sitting in the back of the Union, and the familiar glaze is falling over my eyes like a shutter on a window. Hello Global Studies.

I never thought I'd see the day. I still might not see it, since I'll probably fall asleep -- I went to bed at 430 hrs last night! Something about chickens, eggs grain, and a white guy named Cracker (i'm not kidding). I am filled with mirth at this -- some things never change. Poor students. And yet...

It's essential. And you always learn something. And it's a point of conversation for daily living here on the ship, and a common point for everyone. There is no global study abroad without that study aspect. And so we sit and sway, heads being forcibly stuffed with ideas, cultures, values, and controversies. It does indeed make you think. And yawn. :)
