Post-Grad Week One

I am really hoping this summer gives me a chance to clear my head, cos everything is buzzing right now and I'm not sure how to make it stop.

Still Alive

Updating this from an apartment in Dublin.

Life's been pretty turbulent as of late, with too much that's gone on to properly talk about it all. A list, though, if you will:

1. Graduated from college. Rahm Emanuel spoke, and an MFA candidate made a speech involving an extended metaphor about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It was all very surreal, and I don't know how to feel about being able to call myself an 'alum.'

2. Got into grad school. Moving to Ireland for an indefinite amount of time come September. Pretty psyched about this.

3. Found an apartment for the summer. The joke is that all SLC students move to Brooklyn because it's the 'thing to do,' but I'm moving there cos the rent's slightly cheaper and cos the apartment's nice and cozy and cos my housemates are laid back and lovely people. Also, I have my own bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub. Cool, no?

4. Something I don't feel is appropriate to blog about just happened, and it happened suddenly. Trying to process it, but it's difficult. Just going through the motions right now.

I Know This Much is True

Dear Diary,

I am no longer poor. Just crunched some numbers, and they made me smile. The parents taught me well (with regards to saving, at least).

Also, I am no longer a 'disappeared' person. I was for a while, but now I'm back.

Cheers,
Rebecca
