Things, issues, and happenings I rave and rant about.
Hello! This is Cris Evert. My day just ended. It was long one that involved writing two articles and one research proposal. I also drafted a thesis title and went to the supermarket to bondpaper and vegetables. Before “working,” I taught the children Math and Filipino. I read the “Story …
