The students didn't have long to recover after returning from our trip to Delphi before they had to buckle down and study. They had a quiz in Gina's Greek class today, a massive exam in Indy's Ancient Greek Monuments class tomorrow, and research papers due Monday in both my Persuasion and Rhetorical Criticism classes. It's nearing the end of the term, and suddenly they've been smacked on the side of the head with the "study" part of study abroad.

A handful of students took a break from cramming for Indy's exam to hear a presentation by a guest speaker on the importance of plants in the mythological story of Persephone. After the lecture, Traveling Pants, Class Clown, and Mama D invited me to join them at the sushi restaurant for dinner. Over uzomaki rolls and green tea ice cream, the students informed me that I am sorely lacking a zombie preparedness plan. If zombies take over the world, my brain will be the first to be eaten because I have not yet begun stockpiling ammunition or building a steel bunker. I need to develop separate plans for fighting zombie attacks in Greece and back home in Oregon. Probably I should play a little Resident Evil, watch some Sean of the Dead, and dance some Thriller as a part of my training.
