Important Announcements for tomorrow's class

I can't believe vacation is almost over!

I missed you all so much.

Please print out what every you wrote for your blog. If its white type on black, flip it around so you can make notes on it and edit. Also, bring both your course pack (the one w/ readings from Odyssey etc) and Like Water for Chocolate book.

If you can forward this memo to others in your group (in case they don't use the email listed on blackboard) that would rule.

See you soon!
