My New Exciting Plan

I know my last post said that I was staying in Santa Barbara, BUT after a lot of thought I have changed my mind. Originally I was thinking, "If I don't have a plan, I should just stay here." But the more I thought about my options I realized, since I don't have plans I should go somewhere else, do something different, do anything! There is no better time than the present.

This all seems a bit cliche, I know. But I do have a temporary plan for the summer. My roommate Lola's Dad co-owns a restaurant in Depoe Bay, Oregon. They need waitresses for the summer and there is also a house on the property where I can live rent free. So I'll be saving money, doing something different and exciting, and living in a new beautiful place! Another great part about working there is that Depoe Bay is only 2 and 1/2 hours from Beaverton, where Megan and Trevor live!

After the summer, if I haven't found a job in Portland, I'll move back to good ol' PA and live with Mom and Dad. I was hesitant to do this before because I was worried about isolating myself on the East Coast. But it's always been a dream of mine to live and work in NYC, so I'm going to make it happen!

So I have three weeks left to enjoy SB and my friends here. It will be a whirlwind of final assignments, planning, packing, and of course GRADUATION. I'll keep you updated on my move and summer adventure!

Thanks for reading.

Hiatus Discontinued

Ok so I lied, I never came back and posted pictures from Australia-- I'm sorry.

BUT I have new and exciting things to talk about like the ever looming question, "WHAT AM I DOING AFTER GRADUATION?"

...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

Currently my plan is to apply for jobs but rent a place in Santa Barbara. If I find something good that I want to take (basically anything right now) I will take it. But since I don't know if that will happen I want to stay here and work the jobs I have and enjoy California.

I will update as my job search and graduation plans progress. For now I hope you all are doing well and you will hear from me soon!
