I'm a lucky girl.

I know, I know, it has been too long since my last post. It has also been too long since I got more than 6 hours of sleep in a night or went a whole day without at least one cup of coffee. (But don't worry, I'm taking care of myself I swear!)

This semester has been full of reading about, talking about,  and researching about some depressing topics. Wars, genocide and the failures of peacemakers around the world are daily topics of conversations and readings. My classmates and I are pretty cynical about a lot going on in the world, especially after visiting the State Department but that's another story all together. However, whenever this all gets too depressing and all of the work gets too stressful, the universe steps in and makes me realize how lucky and loved I am. So this post is really dedicated to you, whoever you are reading this; THANK YOU! I am extremely grateful to have such wonderful people and opportunities in my life.

I'll update soon with some more about what I've been up to lately but this week alone I'll be visiting the embassies of Cyprus, Greece and Turkey.
