Well, I've now been studying for my general examinations for one full month. All students in the PhD program in History are required to take these exams at the end of the second year. So students spend almost the entire spring semester just studying for the examinations. I have some substantial reading lists to complete, but as long as I hack away at them each and every day I don't think my chances are too bad to pass.
In other news, I've decided to run the Marine Corps Marathon on 26 October this year. I've been running a lot, and I think that I'm not too far from being able to do a marathon as is (I've run as far as 20 miles in the past, albeit with great difficulty).
