First Day of School!

So, today, 7 September, was my first day as a Skidmore student. I only had one class: The Rise of Japan. Apparently, I did not read the course description very carefully, as I thought this would be a course on the early history of Japan. Instead the course focuses on the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries in Japan and the significant political, diplomatic, social, and economic changes that the nation has experienced. So, it is a very interesting class and I hope to learn a great deal.

After class got out, I had lunch and am now back in the room reading Robinson Crusoe.

My thinking about this blog is that soon I shall not have a lot of time to constantly update this blog, so after classes this week, I will have a post that encompasses the entire week's activities.

Until next time,
