Festooned with Foosh mints

Foosh mints

Thanks to a package that arrived today, I have 30 packages of Foosh mints in my cubicle. That represents 28.8g of pure caffeine and twice the number of mints shown in this photo from Oxford.

Mostly, the choice to purchase so many reflects the expense and annoyance of having them shipped from the US. Partly, it reflects the manic desire to accumulate large collections of desirable things that seems to be a prominent feature in human history.

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.
