Karen's Semester at Sea: July 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Monday, July 31, 2006. You know you've just completed Semester at Sea when. My mom found this list on the Spring '06 message board. The numbers of the statements that ring true for me are in bold, and comments of my own are in yellow. You know people whom you have to ask "where are you" instead of "how are you." *Because so many SASers now have a serious case of the "travel bug. I didn't wear one, but did get a keychain made out of them. You have at least 1 album of SAS pics on F...

Karen's Semester at Sea: February 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Sunday, February 26, 2006. Tomorrow we’re in Mauritius and I still haven’t written up South Africa! I have good excuses though today I had both a Global Studies exam AND a Health Psych exam. I pulled a near-all-nighter last night, had my psych exam at 0800, G.S. at 0920 (I got a 45/50! Writing class at 1045, and then slept from 1200 till 1700. Lauren and I went to dinner with Erin at 1730 (L. had slept from 1000-1700! Took away pub night. For it. I mean, horrors! Some good news i...

Karen's Semester at Sea: January 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Sunday, January 29, 2006. It was worth the $3 admission though, because we got to see some great views of San Juan and the ocean. 20 minutes (and 75 cents) later, we were on the bus, headed to the beaches of Isla Verde. The ride took forever, probably about 45 minutes, but I didn’t mind- I can fall asleep anytime, anywhere, and that I did. I was sandwiched in between an old man and Rob’s friend Mack, and I had such a nice little nap. I didn’t order a drink, but that’s okay; I’ll ...

Karen's Semester at Sea: March 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Friday, March 31, 2006. I am so excited to share everything about Vietnam, because I had some of my best SAS experiences during my three days there. I know that I say this every time, but it’s my new favorite country that we’ve been to. Everybody must make an effort to go. I would love to live there someday, and get this even. She and I are polar opposites in just about every significant way, so it really says something about Vietnam that we could both be happy there. But the sea...

Karen's Semester at Sea: June 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Thursday, June 22, 2006. WORLD NEWS that has piqued my interest post-SAS. I've already spent several lunch hours poring through the travel section at Borders, and when I was confronted with the word cementitious. Earlier today at work, my first thought was, "rhymes with Mauritius! I guess you could say I have the 'travel bug'- but how could I not. Treading Lightly on the Road to Mandalay. New York Times, 5/7/06). Here's one more: Burmese Delusions. Washington Post, 5/29/06).

Karen's Semester at Sea: May 2006
http://karenintheworld.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Karen's Semester at Sea. Friday, May 26, 2006. Last night it occurred to me that perhaps my SAS grades would be posted on my.pitt.edu, since they do count as normal Pitt classes and whatnot. Lo and behold, there they were, and I am quite happy with the outcome considering the amount of effort that I put in. Travel writing that I obviously do), but the grade is completely fair. I turned in some. Posted by Karen at 2:42:00 AM. Links to this post. Thursday, May 25, 2006. Guest Blogger: Erin Gregory. I met K...
