Adios to Oxford, albeit temporarily

Green plants

Files, books, drafts, system recovery discs, emergency rations, bed sheets, caffeinated mints, and more: I am now essentially ready for my thesis writing week in Devon. The sheets I was instructed to bring; the rest is meant to be essential thesis gear. I sure hope this trip proves as useful for advancing the thesis writing as I hope. Once I get back, I will only have about a week of editing time left before the thing needs to be sent off for printing.

Best wishes to everyone for the next eight days.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

  1. I had no idea caffeinated mints exist. Where you can buy them from?

  2. Today’s photo is unusually good. Enjoy the time off (or is it time on?).

  3. Best of luck with the writing. I only wish I could have faith that my coming week at home would be anywhere near as productive. (I’ve decided to concentrate on reading)
