The Next Adventure

Hello, all. First, a comic to sum up my Honors class that I have been blogging about lately:

Thanks again to the ever wonderful xkcd.

I just wanted to post a quick update on what I'm doing now. Tomorrow morning I am heading out to Half Moon Bay, CA, to start a fellowship with the Not for Sale Campaign. It's a non-profit organization that works to fight slavery and human trafficking. This is a cause I have felt passionate about and been involved in for a few years, and I'm very excited to take the next step and becoming more involved.

Ideally, I would like to do some blogging this fall, although, as we all know, I'm not the most consistent blogger. But one can always hope. In the meantime, for any who are interested, you can read about Not for Sale at the following link:

Also, this is an unpaid position, meaning I have to do some fundraising work. So if any you feel able to and called to support me, you can do so here:

Thanks, all, and I'll try to stay in touch.
