Keeping in touch after this semester

Hey guys,
Since we're all going our different ways this summer (although a couple of us will still be around here), how about we use this blog to keep in touch?? I will check in at least once a month and blog about what I have been up to and then you can comment and let me know how you're doing in your new places. Of course it would be up to you how often you check in or write, but I think it would be good to keep in touch! I will miss all of you after you leave!
See you on Tuesday!
Anna

Blog 10: What's funny in your culture?

Tell a joke or a story from your culture that is funny. You may have to explain the humor so those of us who are not from your culture can understand it. You could also describe a funny TV show or movie and why you think it is funny. Everyone has their own sense of humor, and a lot of times this is part of our cultural identity.

This entry will be due midnight Monday, April 14th. No entries accepted after Friday the 18th! Have fun!
