Hello. I am Christina. I am writing this to you on Friday, January 25th, 2008 at 11:47 P.M. Eastern Standard time. Many a time I have lost myself in the vaults of Serendip, but this is my first time message into the future through Serendip. Not long ago, I had my own blog, wrote in a blog for my CSEM course with professors Blankenship and Blank, had a science abstract published. But their significance has eluded me until recently.

On Tuesday we discussed the different possibilities for the meaning of the cover of the book. My initial reaction was that it was doorways. Each doorway took a different perspective on the same background or topic. The doorways brought color to a dismal background. I found this to be metaphorical because the doorways can be the different genres taking an unique perspective on life. Most bring color to life in a large and overbearing way, where others have a lesser effect.
