I am a proud Clemson Tiger, born and raised in the south, lover of all things pink, orange, and preppy, fan of college football and basketball, preacher's kid, daugher and sister in a loving family of 4, talk with a southern accent, hoping to be a pharmacist, college senior, currently living in Costa Rica studying abroad. Join me on this adventure as I blog about it all - what I'm doing here and what the culture is like, in addition to my musings on faith, fashion, and current events.

In today's news.....

Today I have stumbled across a few articles that caught my attention, and so below I have posted links to an article from Clemson, an article from the NYTimes, and an article from Nacion, the national newspaper of Costa Rica!

CLEMSON
133 cases of swine flu reported up to this point. What should be done?

NYTimes
As a student currently studying a foreign language, this REALLY bothers me:

COSTA RICA
If you can read Spanish, or if you just want to know what this says and can put it into freetranslation.com, go to the site below.
http://www.nacion.com/ln_ee/2009/septiembre/14/economia2086325.html
This article basically talks about how foreigners come to Costa Rica to get rid of stress, and end up staying longer! I will try to come back later and give a more detailed translation as best I can, because this is REALLY interesting!
