Flight Patterns May Recap
Some people have been asking me if I’m going to start sending emails again…I figured it was about time I gave it a try. This year, I’ve been working on not comparing myself to others and finding a healthy balance of computer use, as well as just managing stress in general.
Since January, I have been finishing my 4th semester of college (halfway to graduation!) and attended the second half of our church’s No One Like Him attributes of God study. I have attended 3 weddings and am a bridesmaid in 2 more, so there’s been lots of planning and details and also just having fun with my girlfriends.
In the interest of experiencing the real world, I have attended as many local plays and concerts as I have been able to. Corban put on Good Wives, and local schools also put on The Sound of Music and the Importance of Being Earnest. Corban also put on Hymnfest and hosted a night of the Grey Haven’s Caravan tour. I and a friend helped run the merch table for the event and it was a super cool experience. I’ve read a lot about the music business, including the economics and dynamics of touring and working with venues, so it was my inner nerd’s dream to see it all play out in front of me.
Like last semester, I have been working in the Library as the Interlibrary Loan Librarian, which means I facilitate the mailing of books between libraries. I was selected to be the summer librarian, which means I open and close the library, man the desk, continue with the interlibrary loans, and help with projects like moving and deaccessioning books.
I hope this email finds you well and that you are managing to stay cool this summer. Any fun plans? Reply or comment and let me know!
