Research Design Seminar

Good news: I gave a 20 minute methodology presentation today, and my professors think my dissertation topic (behavior change and NGO-driven HIV/AIDS education in Uganda) is great! Thanks for all of your prayers, loved ones! Please keep 'em coming. I still have so much work to do, and of course the fieldwork will be tricky, but I am so happy I am headed in the right direction. Yay God! And my fieldwork site - Kabale, Uganda - is apparently a highly under-researched area, meaning I will find good data and willing participants. Plus, it is beautiful and SAFE! So excited to go! But right now I am thrilled to be in Oxford. I love my coursework more every week, and I value the relationships I am building with professors and peers. I am where I am supposed to be. I know I will be able to use this knowledge to serve others.

To my "baby" sister Katherine, Happy 15th Birthday! Wish I could be with you!
