she has some interesting things to say about her college experience.
And also look at these photos! Wow! Ana, thanks so much
for being in touch! We miss you too!
Hey Jennifer!
How have you been? How is everything back at home base? I miss ICE so much, and lately I can't stop thinking about visiting. I originally wanted to write a blog post for you, and I will, but I'm working for the Union blog Unfiltered for my work-study. Therefore, I am writing like 3 blog posts a week and choosing one to put up. In any case, how are the seniors doing? I heard they started applying to colleges already, I wish them luck.
As for Union college, it's awesome. Aside form the fact that I miss the city, ICE, and my internship, Union is pretty cozy. I have the good luck to live in the only dorm that actually feels and looks like a dorm. My room is pretty big, my roommate is....long story. I'm currently taking three courses, Medical Anthropology, Biology, and Russian Short-Story. It's hard transitioning from High School to College, and I would actually love to talk to the seniors about that when I come by to visit, Josh is setting something like that up. My only concern is the weather here. It changes rapidly during the day, its so mercurial. This is why everybody on campus is chronically sick all day, every day.

The nature is beautiful, you can always see mountains, no matter where you are on campus. It's almost like a dream, especially now. There are so many trees on campus that the streets here look like they came out straight from a movie set. My favorite pastime now is sleeping and going to hockey games. I joined the Union Women's Club hockey team so it's quite different from figure skating which I used to do. The Mens team is D1, so they are amazing to watch, and as freshman many don't understand the traditions of going to a game. From the sayings, to the booing, to the chants, and also the fact that you are not allowed to sit.
In any case, here is a link to the Unfiltered blog if you want to check it out, I had just made two videos for it last week: http://muse.union.edu/
P.S. Here are a few pictures of campus.
