Well girls...I've finally done it! I finally created an account and decided to come out of lurking mode  It feels good to know that there is a place where I can take questions about this kind of stuff to and it also feels good to know there is a place to go when I'm down or confused (or happy!!) and not be afraid of judgement So in advance, and I hope this isn't too presumptuous of me, thank you girls A little about me... My name's Eliza Jane--an old familial name (I'm from the South) but anyone who knows me at all calls me EJ. It's much less formal lol. I'm college as a history/archaeological anthropology major... we'll see how that goes haha Anyways I'm really looking forward to diving into the "community" here and getting to know all of you! |

I'm happy to be the first to welcome you EJ. Have you been lurking for a long time? Feel free to ask anything and share with us when your feeling down or confused. I'm guessing your a dev but you didn't specify.

Dude! She's got another thread that's NOT in Dev's Only! Delete, please. EJ, welcome from another Southern girl (only one name though, lol). I was actually talking about that the other day with some colleagues... the two-name thing. |

Thanks everyone! Wow Ruth and Brandi--that's so awesome! I used to think anthropology was a rare field, I'm learning it's really quite broad because there is so much you can do with it. I want to go into historical preservation, for example. Kudos to you Brandi for getting your Ph.D--scary and exciting! I hope to eventually do that someday so I might have questions for you at some point lol. Inigo, I used to positively despise my name! I wanted something "ordinary" like Clare (my best friend's name lol) but alas...I guess being "ordinary" was never in my fate huh? lol lavly: I would LOVE to participate in book club! I'm afraid I might have missed the boat on this one though  haha but I might be able to get involved next time. Honestly, it depends on what kind of reading I have to do for class...lol |
