Just a quick little update. I had a busy last week with getting my articles written but they´re all finished now and turned. The close for articles is every Friday and so there is always a crunch trying to get everything put together as the week winds down. Definitely believe I am getting a better feel for the whole process of researching, interviewing and writing but I still would hardly consider myself a proper journalist. I which I had a bit more constructive feedback about my stories but as it is, we don´t really have an editor to speak of and it is more of a learn as you go along type system. Oh well.
I also have been looking into new apartments at the beach and think I found one that will work out nicely. I actually just got back from Coco and found a studio/cabina apartment that is only a five minute walk from the beach and at a resonable price. The apartment is currently occupied but will open up Monday or Tuesday, so hopefully be Wednesday I can start moving in.
Lastly, I have applied to a masters program in International Peace Studies at the University for Peace here in San Jose. It is a UN chartered university that offers a number of programs related to conflict resolution, reconstruction and sustainable development. Mine is a one year program and I will find out if I was accepted or not at the beginning of May. I don´t know much about the selectivity and number of applicants so I really don´t know what to expect. Classes would start next September and it would cool if I got in, but I certainly won´t be shattered if I don´t.
