This fall is full of firsts, my first blog post on my first personal blog. My first time living away from people i know and love. My first time living in a city without "adult" family there top support me. My first year out of college, my first job. My first rent payment and car. My first time primarily using public transit to get around. There are a lot of firsts, and many which I'm sure I am forgetting. But in a lot of ways it doesn't feel that different.
I still have a housemate, and I have found new "adults" to support me if I need it. I took the LSAT last weekend (hopefully for the first and last time) which was reminiscent of school in that I studied et cet era. Liz, a friend from Scripps, took it too! That was something I am accustomed to. Living far from my old friends is still pretty nromal, and working on criminal justice related stuff is constant.
This fall I took an Americorps position working at the Dream Academy, an after school program, and at the National Resource Center on Children and Families of the Incarcerated. There I am working with children and doing research, respectively; those are both things I have been doing for a while.
So, this is my first blog post, I hope to write consistently on a bunch of topics in my life. We'll see how I do. Please feel free to comment on my posts or email me directly.
