Returning to the Windy City

Less than 4 days away from Chicago, and with all the craziness, it's still hard to believe. I left the gorgeous Windy City 14 years ago, and of course am more than thrilled to return!

Model UN is like my dream class - I love debating international politics. Just from practicing with the simulations, I've already learned what a challenge it's going to be staying in character. As much as some have moaned and groaned about our representing a less active UN entity - Niger - I am thrilled by the challenge! There is so much to talk about with Niger, so many issues to bring up and keep in mind as we engage in the debates that no doubt the conference will be exhilerating.

I've been taking the class independent study as it conflicts other engagements (hence my absence in the picture), but I've already gotten to work with my amazing colleagues and co-delegates and have no doubt in my mind that we will take Chicago by storm!

More to come!
