Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and Happy New Year! As you may have noticed I didn’t make a post yesterday. Classes resume on Monday, so I will be altering my post schedule. I will be posting once a week, on Sunday evenings! I thought I’d make a short post today and I’ll post my weekly recipe on Sunday! I’ll keep making short posts about my weight loss progress and keep you guys up to date regarding the weight loss challenge!
This semester I am taking French 1, Italian 2 and a seminar about the Reformation in England! I really love school (obviously) and languages are my passion, so I can’t wait to start learning a new one.
As you guys know already, I went to high school in Bixby, Oklahoma, but in 2006 I began attending Tulsa Community College. I went to community college for 3 years (one year concurrently enrolled during high school and two years afterward), then went to the University of Tulsa for one year, and finally came to Dallas! I am currently working on my PhD in European History and I plan to concentrate on modern Italian political history!
Did you have a favorite subject when you were in school? If you are a student, what classes are you taking this semester?
You are taking a lot of interesting classes. My French, Latin, and English classes were all back to back one year. It made for some fun times. LOL. Anyway, great choices!
My absolute favorite subject is American Government. I lovvveee Am. Gov. I was probably one of the few students excited for that 8 AM class. I also enjoyed American History. I had a love/hate relationship with World Histories. I don’t know what it was about them that just made me shut down, but oh well. You on the other hand, thrive on European history. I’m in shock!
I wish you the best this semester. Keep up the hard work. đŸ™‚

Oh wow, I have never taken Latin! That must have been crazy difficult! But that’s awesome and thanks for the encouragement!

I love world history. I just finished reading about the Lombards (my dad was born in Lombardia) and I’m looking for a good read on Etruria. Your photos of Italy are beautiful.
