Still Surviving

Hello all!

I am still here at Clark and still loving it just as much.

To answer your question Aunt Terri, I'm not neutropenic anymore, so I don't have to watch out for raw foods, but I also am not about to hit McDonalds and ruin my health that way (oooh I hate fast food). So I am eating healthy foods, but I have no limitations on what I can eat, which is nice because there are really good sushi places around here.

Classes are going really well. My first paper was a success (I got a B, got referenced in class and the professor told me that if I make one or two minor corrections, I could turn it into an A, so I did and I have yet to get it back).

Unfortunately, my absentee ballot has not come in the mail yet. The good news is that I am very confident Obama will win NY, so I won't feel extremely guilty for not voting. I tried...

Anyway, I am off to dinner!

Much love,

Marika

Back at Clark!

I am writing from my desk at Clark University! At last I have returned to campus and cannot wait for things to start to come alive again after the Columbus day vacation. Everyone is welcoming me back, and I'm genuinely surprised that I managed to meet this many people and that this many people remember me. Anyway, I've gotta go catch up on some work here, but I'll try to keep posting. I still have a bone marrow biopsy in my near future to write about.

Much love,

Marika
