Tomorrow begins my last push for final data collection - its a bit surreal that the time has gone by as quickly as it has, but I've been so very grateful and thankful to be here and for Cyndy to host me. I've got more interviews lined up along with class and a focus group - tomorrow will be a busy day.
I've certainly spent more time than I realized on logistics related to setting things up, but that comes as part of the deal for being here and working within the culture. Another way to look at it is that the connections I'm making will be helpful later on down the road when I'm writing and analyzing all of this data from what the students are saying. So a silver lining.
My weekend so far has been good as well - was definitely lifted yesterday and was happy to have the time. I also got to Landmark and did some walking and shopping...although I don't like to shop all the time, I was pretty successful in bargaining. Seemed as though everyone wanted to make a deal. :)
