Annie's Video

Friday, August 8, 2008

My friend, Annie, has submitted a video she created for a scholarship contest where she has a chance to win a scholarship of $2,000. The video is on YouTube - the more people who watch her video, the better her chances are of winning the scholarship.

Annie's video is very well done and is really short (less than 2 minutes) so please, if you have a moment, watch her video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHIjlUUpg8A .

Thank you!

A Different Approach

Sunday, August 3, 2008

Despite my lack of blog updates from Barcelona, I started to enjoy posting. I had originally decided to start a new, separate blog after I returned from Spain. I was deterred, however, by the fact that every blog name that I could think up (for example, this one is "darcyclaire.blogspot.com") was already taken. Seriously, I went through dozens of names and they were all assigned. You can see for yourself; type whatever word or phrase first comes to mind and ".blogspot.com" after it and a blog will most likely pop up. After my searching I decided to stick with this blog and to reformat it for my current interests.

What I am really hoping this blog will be is a learning tool for me - since I have been out of school I have been thinking about and questioning a lot less things. Here's to changing that around.
