Things today and yesterday

1) Morning Dew. We had a good number show up this morning. Not sure if it will continue on next semester, I hope it does. My friend Amy noted that different TCKs (and non) showed up who do not usually attend MuKappa events. This is great because M. D. is not a MuKappa event.

2) Ivanhoes. Mr. and Mrs. Aguilar took me out to Ivanhoes to discuss a trip to Jujuy, where I grew up. This was my first time to Ivanhoes, a popular restaurant in the area. I can't say I was terribly impressed, but then again I got a pasta salad and not one of their famous sundaes.

3) Potosi. My paper is finished and turned in. You can read it here. I feel pretty good about it, even though my thesis statement could be a bit stronger.

4) Immigration to America. I had my last class today. We had some great discussion concerning illegal immigration. I made a few good comments (at least it made the teacher and others think a little) defending immigrants.
One person was stating how illegal immigrants take advantage of the U.S. American schools and don't contribute to society. I replied, "Are they taking advantage of us...or are we taking advantage of them?"
A different person was expressing that she thought that people should have to speak English to be able to vote. I replied, "We had better make sure that they are land owners too."
Smart? No. Did I feel like we had a good discussion today? Yes.

5) Guyana. Jeff, Fernando, and I are giving our presentation tomorrow. It needs to go for 50 min. since it is in place of a final. It's going to be fun, even though a lot of work. Click here to see a video that we are showing. Yes, I know it's cheesy.

6) Study. I'm starting to study for my finals, which are next week. I still have to watch a few videos (three hours worth) for History of England but I should have those completed tomorrow.
