Get my HAM radio license
Bad Memories 2 months ago

My dad was an amateur radio operator since he was 17, and as soon as I could read he gave me a manual to start studying for my first license. All during the summer when I was 11 I studied my butt off, and failed the test twice before I finally got my call sign.

But then I never used the radio my dad had, so I just gave it back to him. And when my parents got divorced, he took all the radios, and I was glad to see them go. As a young woman, I don’t really have much to talk about with fat old white guys.

I am glad, however, that if I need to, I can help out in an emergency situation. That’s a good reason to get licensed.


know where every country in the world is
Surprisingly Rewarding 2 months ago

I had to do this for a summer camp I went to last year, and I thought it would be a chore, but it was very interesting. There are so many more countries in the world than I could recognize, and I ended up learning a great deal. Now my knowledge of geography has increased tenfold!

Summer time 3 months ago

I’m going to France this summer. I’m very lucky to be able to go. It’s going to cost an insane amount of money, but it’s important to me to increase my speaking ability. I’m very excited; I’m going to take advantage of every opprotunity I have while I’m over there.
