JR 156: Midterms and life update

-

 Hi there-I didn't see you!

I appreciate your patience as midterm season is upon Skidmore College and I am dab smack in the middle of mine so this well be relatively short.

 School is going well-just a little more work heavy than usual, but as always we make our way through it! I just finished second major project of the semester-a video analysis on the 2014 Hercules featuring the Rock, which I am relieved to have finished-we got assigned dates and I would have hated to be at the end of the semester. 

In terms of Covid, I just got my weekly test back and it is negative and as for Skidmore on the whole we have two active cases, which if you missed it before can be found on this website. 

I think that my only major update is that I was asked to sit on the Alumni Board as a student representative-I don't know much about what that entails for me but I'll let you know when I do! Other than that we are all enjoying the fall leaves, the cooler temperature(well mostly it is hard to sit outside without multiple layers!), and staying socially distant.

I lost the game! and other fun traditions

-
One day last week, or maybe it was the week before, was national wear your camp t-shirt day-of which no one (at school) that I know participated. However there is no need to fret because yours truly-super counselor extraordinaire remembered and wore her staff shirt from last summer. This combined with the Hillel retreat where we sang a lot of the end of session songs and an email encouraging us to apply for summer 2020, reminded me of all the little traditions from camp that I wish took place more in my daily life. For my camp friends reading this I hope it doesn't make you too nostalgic, and for everyone else maybe this a way to bring a little bit of fun to the office or maybe the holidays. The pineapple game When you are out with a group of people the first one to point to the pineapple and say I win. Wins. Yep- that's the whole game. I do highly recommend it for group shopping trips as it brings a sense of adventure to what can be a drab day at the mall. Invisible ...

Less Busy

Yesterday I got up and worked on some papers and then around 11 decided to make up my mind for the day. I had a kind bar and hit the road. I went to the Barbican, Postman's Park, and Postal museum The Barbican is a really unique building because it has plants overall the windows. The Postman's Park is much smaller than many parks that I have been to but that there are some titles that describe heroic events live saving children from a fire. Finally the Postal museum was incredible. I didn't think that I would enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Also at the museum, you can ride the mail rail, which is the old mail cart which would run under the city. Overall I had a great time and I was able to walk most of these so I saw many new parts of the city. Today I leave for Derby today to visit a camp friend. Don't expect any more posts until Sunday Morning. Have a Great Weekend!

Meal Prep and a Movie

-
This will be brief because I am going to watch a movie with some friends. Today I got up and read in bed for a bit. I then got up and worked out before going foodshopping. I got stuff for the week and also to make Nutella brownies with. They were pretty good, a little gooey but that didn't stop anyone. I then proofread a paper and did more research for AA overall it was a really chill day.
