Another day...they seem to pass pretty quickly and I will admit that I have completely lost all sense of time. Between the continuous time zone shifts, lack of days of the week, and minimal contact with the world beyond our 591ft. home, I am losing track of when things happened, how much time has passed, where we are etc... I think that its alright though. I am sitting in the lounge, in "my spot" where I come for a few minutes of me time, and just watc...

Hi All - Just a real quick note since this seems to be a great general way for me to communicate with everyone. There are rumors flying around the ship that we are entering a dead zone for internet; who knows, but just in case this is true, I may or may not be able to e-mail and update so don't worry if you don't hear from me.

I got to be a part of King Neptune's court with some of the other RD's as Fish Ha...

Not a whole lot new to write about... we're crossing the South Atlantic and everyone is settling back in to life on the ship. The weather has been good and the seas are fair. I've settled in to my job, at least it seems so, but new things come up each day. I'll be leading a workshop later this week on Careers in Student Affairs and Higher Education, or more like How do you get to be an RD on Semester at Sea? And tomorrow is Neptune Day, which I'm sure will be a...
