Hi! I sent all my paperwork in about the STEM program last week. I am excited to hear back from them. Thank you so much for writing me a recommendation for me! I really appreciate it! It looks like you are having a good time! I was looking up Palmer Station on google and I found a website that has a live video feed so you can see what it looks like there.. It is really cool (: Are you learning anything new and exciting?

Have a great day! -- Sara S

Hi Sara,That's great news about your STEM application. Best of luck with that- you are perfect for the program!
I'm glad you found the webcam online; that reminded me to post it in my journal, so I put it in there today. Thanks! I'm learning a lot about ocean acidification and polar science in general. The scientists here are all extremely dedicated and hard-working. It's all very impressive. I'm excited to share more with you and the rest of the Polar Ambassadors when I get home.
Until then, keep reading my journals!
