Erica said… - Yes, I am a double-major. It's a lot of work but I'm enjoying it.
As for writing... I'm most likely not going to be making a career out of it (probably just a side-thing) but I do want to write at least one book and get it published. I'm working on one about a girl with diabetes, details are on my profile, actually. I joined the community so I could talk to more people about their experiences, as part of my research. I don't want the book to be drawn only from my own experience as it's atypical of a diabetic, and I don't want to make things up, either. I'd rather the events be based on or drawn from things that have actually happened to people living with D.

- Really? Your back and arm? I'm sure I'd find that uncomfortable, but to each his own, right?
What kind of music are you studying? I'm doing a double-major in Creative Writing/Digital Art & Design myself.

- Probably because they haven't been staring at your stomach? :P
I wear my sets on my legs, so the omnipod REALLY stuck out for me. (the tightness of my jeans, needless to say, weren't helping.) I just put my pump in my back pocket most of the time.
I like your new picture, btw. :)

- Thanks for the add.
How do you like the Omnipod? I tried it and it felt so bulky to me.

- There are some camps out there, just not sure I'd call them "retreats!" Check out http://www.diabetestrainingcamp.com/index.php Amylia Grace posted about it on her blog this summer, which you can check out at http://www.diabetesdaily.com/grace/2008/06/off-to-diabetes-camp.php
