chillin'

portland and me in the summer, ahhh. i'm finishing up for the year, the school year that is. it's the end of my second year of graduate school. i can't believe i'm starting the third year in just a couple months. i'd like to say i'm gonna have the summer off but the time has come where i can't ignore my dissertation anymore. so as much as i love the sun, the library will be calling my name. i'm also wrapping up my practicum site and reflecting over my experiences there. i've learned alot. also, i'm now a workin' girl once again. trying to support my extravagant lifestyle ;) the roommate and i are initiating the summer merriment in what will soon become the bdun-mer tradition i feel. sarah and i will be rockin' the suburbs this summer with some trips to the coast. had the first bbq of the summer on saturday with the 'hort. it's our second annual (with a third and fourth to follow) complete with everything a summer bbq should have and hillbillie golf. i have a feeling this summer will be different for me, i feel like i've grown in some small but very significant ways over the past 6 months. i'm excited to see what's in store for the rest of the year.
