make the funniest shapes from the cloud so grey...
Hello. It's been a while. Since I'm venturing back to school soonish, I thought I'd do some looking-back. Especially since this has been a fairly stellar summer, in comparison to others.
This summer, I finished my first triathlon. And I didn't come in last place. It was actually fun - a word I wasn't expecting to use for the experience - and I can't wait to do another one.
I was a manager at Idlewild for my first summer. And I think that went really, really well. I hired all my friends, and we had an amazing time together - Monday nights became our regularly scheduled time to do things (oh hi, today is Monday.) We also went our first summer in a long time being relatively drama-free. And that's always nice.
I became closer to some of my friends than I ever have been, and I am so grateful to have them in my life. I really don't know what I would do if I didn't know them. I've laughed more this summer than I have in a very long time, I think, and that is thanks to those people.
I also made some amazing new friends. Some people let us down this summer, but others are people I definitely want in my life for a long time.
I (recently) discovered the beautiful voice of Zee Avi, who has quickly become one of my favorite musicians.
For the first time, I'm actually dreading the end of working at Idlewild and the beginning of school. I'm always counting down the days till I can stop working and move to Pittsburgh, but now I'm only looking forward to coming home on weekends to work Hallowboo.
All of this is about as sappy as I get. But this summer was fantastic, and I really needed to get that down.
