Happy End of Summer!...Wait...

Happy end of summer!

                                           ...wait... 

Okay, I'm thinking that might be an oxymoron...but really:  I hope your last weeks of summer are treating you well!

As many of you know, I have been MIA all summer.  I spent the season in New Haven, Connecticut, working as a resident assistant and instructor for a high school enrichment program called Explo at Yale.  It was a wonderful experience!  I highly recommend it!

I supervised Explo residents with my awesome CO-RA, Gabby...

We make awesome silly faces.

I taught Biomedical Ethics... 

Did you know that a person can potentially have 5 different parents?

...and American Red Cross CPR/AED certification...  

Check out my creepy CPR manikin closet!

I also had the opportunity to go on some pretty cool weekend trips.  I went on a Brooklyn Food 
Tour, tried my hand at whitewater rafting, relaxed at the beach, and led a community service trip 
at West Haven Community House with my buddy Eliza.  

The "kissy face" is my go-to silly face. Sorry I'm not more creative!

I ALSO saw my very first Broadway show, Chicago, with my Aunt Chris and boyfriend Alex. 

The very next day (when I was back on duty with Explo students), I saw my second Broadway show, 
Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.  

Talk about the best weekend ever!
(EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! Happiness!)

What can I say? It was a great summer with great people!

Bear time!
