I am one of four children with an older sister and a younger sister plus a younger brother. Neither of my parents graduated from college and I am the first in our family to consider going to graduate school. I grew up in Fairfax, Virginia a wealthy, predominately white subarb that would rather consider itself to be a part of DC than Virginia. My parents are divorced but out of economic necessity they still live in the same house. Over the course of my life, I have had a managerie of pets including dogs, cats, parrots, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs and a handful of tomagotchi's. Although I have lived in the same room of the same house all my life, I have traveled to Northern Ireland and The Philippines to stay with friends in both countries. I love watching horror movies in order to make fun of them. I am a devout protestant who wants to major in anthropology.

My questions for this class are:

How is  behavior reflected on anatomy and vice versus?

Why do we feel compelled to believe in the imporbable even when there is little to no empirical evidence backing it up?

Do advances in technology and science improve the human condition?
