I just finished my major field examination in Canadian politics.
It was hard.
I found the toughest part to be just dealing with three significant essays in four hours – keeping them straight in my mind, and making a semi-convincing argument while trying to cram in the maximum number of references.
I should hear if I passed within two weeks.

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.
