At summer's end: to new beginnings

It has been exactly 3 months since I've returned from Africa, and now that Orientation training has officially started, it's safe to say my summer is officially over. A lot can happen in 3 months, which became very evident this summer.

Big Brother Returns (Not the Show)

Happy Monday! After you're done reading this I'll be on my way to Grand Rapids for the school year!!!!

What I've Learned at Roman Wheel

Today is my last day at work! Who would've thought the idea of being unemployed would sound so good right now?

Tour de M22

One of my friends from Grand Rapids got to visit me on Saturday. Basically we traveled through all of Leelanau County in one night. I like to call it the "Tour de M22". We visited Leland, Fishtown, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Suttons Bay.

Thanks for making me a fighter

It's been nearly two weeks since my last post, and I'm sorry for that. One thing I hate about being up north is the lack of Internet. But, there's also another reason as to why I haven't been updating as much:

I'd remember playing in an area with the name "Peshawbestown"

Last night I got tickets with my friend Emily to go see Josh Turner at the casino.

Playing Fudgie

Yesterday I had a day off, and what better way to spend it than going to Mackinac Island for the day?

Top of the World

Lately due to the warm weather (okay, maybe warm is an understatement, try muggy, hot, and miserable!) my hometown has had a ton of thunderstorms. I've been getting into photography a lot this summer, and I decided to capture the storm before it hit. I was inspired after seeing this photo on M22's Facebook page:

Cabin Fever

I’m not homesick; I’m sick of home. This was my unofficial catchphrase last summer.

New Classes & New Glasses

I started my summer class yesterday. Let’s just say it’ll be a battle to pass and stay sane this summer……

Sweet Summertime

I'm no longer a sophomore! Junior year here I come. Have a great summer everyone.:)
