Unsurprising! I’ve been really busy with work, life and school! I’m in the process of writing my MA thesis proposal and I’ve recently finished my last assignment for the last course of my MA degree. I’ve got a lot to say right now, but no time to say it. :) We are leaving for Waterloo to attend B’s convocation ceremony, since it is early in the morning we are staying overnight there. Check back later ;)

A general theme in this blog is that I am “super busy”, this is actually true! Since coming back from the holiday break, I met a wonderful group of Hondurans who I may get to visit and work with this spring or summer. Fingers crossed! My supervisor and I have applied for a grant which, if we are accepted, would cover our costs to do a really interesting (and important) research project. I don’t want to say too much, might jinx it. :) I’m also taking a class again this semester, Power, Politics and Policy in Applied Health Sciences. So far, so good. I’m learning about power dynamics, networks, governance and forms of capital which will hopefully be helpful to my thesis.

I’ve also been busy with work and enjoying spending time with my boyfriend, our cats and friends (and reading copious amounts of books, reports and journal articles).
