What’s keeping me busy

I still haven’t fully decided between the core PhD seminars in international relations and Canadian politics, so I have readings for both, along with others for the international relations course where I am working as a teaching assistant, the environmental politics and literature courses I am taking, and the normative theory courses I may take if other scheduling issues permit. I am also working on pulling together the 350.org film screening this Thursday (complete with last-minute complications), as well as thinking about what the group might do after this. Then, there are the mandatory applications for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship and Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council scholarships. I need to do enough around Massey College to be re-elected to my fellowship next year. And, finally, I am meant to be doing original academic research for the purposes of both publication and the advancement of my central thesis project.

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.
