It's been nearly a year since I wrote last and the last time I wrote was about my adventures in Paris and my internship work I was doing and working with kids in the culturally diverse 18th district. The language I was focusing on was my French while I was surrounded by people who also spoke Arabic and made friends with others who speak Spanish. Now I will be taking language intensive courses in Arabic through the Middlebury language schools at Mills college in Oakland, California.
I will be studying form June 13th until August 8th and then from there, anything is possible.
This first blog is just going to recap the end of final semester senior year up until about now.
Enjoyed my last AIA formal at Witt: Me and Sasha!
Enjoyed a final trip to Yellow Springs as a Witt senior: L to R; Lizzie, Champ, Me, Evan, Jane!
Took a trip to Chicago to spend some time with family: Colleen, Bridget, Timmy, Cara, Lilli, Jay, Weston!
Helped out my hermano
Saw a Memorial Day parade with a pretty embarrassing finale 937 with 30" rims style!
What the hell is that? Patriotic because they stick flags smaller than your average notebook on the back of each one.... hmmm
Took a trip to Sandusky, OH! Thank you Hannah!
Made a trip back to TC, MI for a couple days to see some old friends! Jess & Leesha out frolfing
Made a trip to Boulder, CO! Thank Champ!
Had a great senior moment for Cinco de Mayo: Becca, Jesse, Jane, Anna, Rob, Tiana, Martin
The biggest event out of all the rest was obviously graduating after 4 yrs and 3 summers of intense studying. Graduation went off with only minor weather issues. Finally Graduated from Wittenberg studying foreign languages and economics with specializations in Spanish and international economics.
Was gifted my own stoll with my birth country's colors and seal on it and walked with my own, non Wittenberg-affiliated cords. I didn't realize until then that our degrees don't actually say what we studied, just the transcripts.
Now I am in Berkley, CA and I have made some new friends, great people from India!
Neha & Soham! You guys are great people!!!!
And this is where my adventures in Cali started, with Swati! It will continue with Arabic school and more pictures!
Hope you enjoyed reading! With love from Cali and until next time!
