Hey folks - since most of you are achaean, I think that you probably caught this on the forums. IF you didn't, though, I wanted to let you know.

Awhile back you may remember I was working on etting into a program to go to mexico and study/research there. Well, I know I suck at updating this thing, but I got in. In fact, I leave tomorrow, and I'll be there till December.

Since I suck at updating this thing when I'm leading a normal internet-filled life, I doubt I'll be able to update it there. Internet access seems like it'll be considerably more difficult to come by, so I'll be sending out emails to anyone that is interested, since I can do that no matter the place/hour.

If you want to be added to my email list, email me at vvilott at gwu dot edu, and I'll add you - please let me know who you are so I don't get confused.

The way this works is that I'll send out mass emails about what it's like, what I'm doing, etc. Anyone that takes the time to respond personally to me, I PROMISE I will endeavour to reply to personally.

Anyway, I hope you all have a great autumn season, and I wish you all the best of luck! I'll miss you!

- Val
