April 15 – April 22

This week, I…

• got a sunburn
• executed two work events
• made my first foray into the wide, wild world of Retail
• called my best friend, my sister, and my mother on the telephone
• had the pleasure of entertaining the future in-laws on Friday and Saturday
• only ran 2 miles
• rediscovered this little thing called “stress eating”

But it’s okay. I am writing this from the other side of “week seventeen” but already I have turned in two final projects and am this-close to finishing two Master’s degrees.

Also, apparently Olympic gymnast Dominique Moceanu retweeted something I wrote professionally last week. Whilst I wrote this post, I had no idea that 1% of my validation anxiety was already quelled.

Reading:

• We All Fall Down by Nic Sheff
• The Ivy by Lauren Kunze and Rina Onur
• Rot and Ruin by Jonathan Maberry
• Over You by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus

Listening to:

• Norah Jones’s new album on NPR’s First Listen – my favorite site when I need  quick album on the go.

Watching:

• The Wonder Years (word)
• LOST (made it to Season 2!)
