Prep for the GRE and get an iPad for FREE!?!

It's too good of an offer not to post this anywhere.  My work is giving out $499 rebates for iPads if you enroll in one of their test prep courses by Dec 31.  If you are already thinking about prepping for these test or know anyone who is thinking about prepping for the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, MCAT, LSAT then this is a fantastic deal.  The courses are a little expensive, but definitely get results, and would be totally worth it if you're getting an iPad out of it.

In Peru

Near where we volunteer

My Camera is Racist

Yes, I am a little bit crazy.  I´m living in Peru for the summer and I don´t quite speak Spanish.  The area where we´re staying can best be described as a small town, bu the area where we´re volunteering is definitely the country.  When my husband and I get on the micro (buses that are public transit but don´t seem to be government or city owned) the more traditional campesinos tend to stare at us.  We´ve gotten some great pictures, but something troubling has happened.  My camera is racist.  So, we have a newer Nikon camera that was given to us as a gift before going on this trip, and haven´t really gotten to use it much.  Much to my surprise the auto setting keeps asking if I have blinked when we take my picture. Sadly, no, I´m not blinking I´m just Asian.  Despite the fact that I´m of the opinion that technology is rarely neutral, it is still surprising that this has occured.
