Back to Geneva
Anna and I arrived in Geneva safely on Sunday afternoon. The roads were pretty icy in Vermont, but the driving was all clear once we hit New York. Anna is now lucky enough to experience all HWS has to offer for a few days...entirely from within my unit. She ventured onto campus with me yesterday for a few minutes, but other than that she's been sampling quite a few different forms of entertainment: namely, a) the internet, and b) DVDs. She's probably fairly bored, but I'll drive her back to Ithaca tomorrow morning and it will no longer concern me.
Classes have been going well. My two mathematics courses sound interesting: an introduction to wavelets and mathematical modeling. From math modeling on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, I head directly to ancient philosophy, which should be quite the transition. And then I finish my Tuesday and Thursday afternoons with Tibetan mandala painting, taught by an incredibly interesting, real-live Tibetan monk. Hopefully I'll find some remnants of an artistic side before the end of the semester...

Whoa, Anna has two remotes by her feet! She must be either really entertained or -- judging from her eyes -- really bored.
So you chose the Tibetan mandala painting! I forget what you were choosing between -- writing? -- but "incredibly interesting" makes it sound like you made the right choice. Plus, you have a blog, so who needs a course in writing? Riiiight...
