"The act is beginning, the audience awaits" -BARE"The act is beginning, the audience awaits" -BARE - LiveJournal.com(Untitled)- June 30, 2008 It really is ridiculous that I haven't been updating very much over the past year as I've gone through massive changes in my life -- rapid radicalization and then substantial stepping back. Even Cambodia is lost a bit in the main text here because my day-to-day activities were largely chronicled in e-mails to my then boyfriend, Michael McWilliams. I really should copy those into (a) private post(s) on here. Now I'm taking summer classes at Georgetown (finished Intro to Journalism and next...http://zephyrprince.livejournal.com/839732.html working woes- June 17, 2008 It's also scary when I have to verify something that's super important and my level of confidence in its validity isn't 100%.
