Since May

-


 Hi there! How are you? Oh my goodness, I know its been forever. Let's catch up!

Since May, I have been busy reading books, watching Netflix, pretending to adult, actually adulting, house sitting, packing, attending a conference, and last but certainly not least moving to Pennsylvania!

More important than all the "-ings," was just taking time to relax and hang out with friends. Nicole and I went to a lot of brunches and a Bonsai Bar experience and took a few trips. The first was to Skidmore and then Burlington VT to visit some school friends before heading down to the Cape to help out at my camp for a few days as they got ready for campers.





After that it was back to the "-ings" before heading to St. Louis for my first professional conference. I had a really great time, learned a lot, and more importantly in the eyes of the program made some new friends and lots of connections. 


and after St. Louis, I moved to Bethlehem PA and tomorrow I start my first real day of work! I have gotten to meet some of my housemates and they seem really nice, which feels good especially as I hadn't met any of them before I signed the lease (more photos to come soon I promise for real this time)

 
Since moving on Wednesday, I have been busy unpacking and cleaning. I got a library card and have been running all of the errands and not forcing myself to do it all in one go. Then Sam and Caitlin came down and the three of us went to see Marielle Kraft at MusikFest which was a lot of fun; we even got a picture with her after the performance. 




And that brings us up to today, I got up and did a little bit of laundry before heading to an outdoor mall to sit and read for a while. Now I am eating dinner and creating this update to you all. It kind of feels like my first day of school all over again, my outfit is laid out and my things are packed for tomorrow morning. So I guess that it is for now! 
Here's to more consistent postings with my next chapter and all my best wishes, 
me

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.
