Good afternoon from the coffee shop (things are a little slow here at the shop, so I have some time to write!):Living across the country during the holiday season definitely makes me start to feel a little homesick. But, the new friends I have made out here are helping me feel more at home :) It will be so great to head home for Christmas to see everyone!! The first thing I want to do is play with my 2 pups- Riley and Jack. Then I'm hoping to see some Christmas lights and drink lots of "egg nog" with some friends from high school/college. I'm excited to see how the old college campus has changed over the past couple months and how the friends are dealing with college life- most of them only have a few more months til they graduate too!
What's new?...Still working here at the coffee shop and downtown twice a week at Ketchum PR. We had our holiday party for Ketchum last Thursday- they reserved the whole bar- open bar and free appetisers at a swanky bar called Sugar. I also met some colleagues that are a lot of fun!
My 22nd Birthday!:
First birthday away from family and friends at home, and it turned out just fine! For my birthday Spears took me to Muir woods- beautiful redwood trees! They gave us a tiny map at the entrance and let us loose to hike miles of their trails through the forest.
Sports:
Yeah Bucks! I love me some Buckeyes and I am so stoked about the game in January. O-H
The 49ers are not the best football team, but they're my home team now so I've been keeping up with them a bit.One of my favorite past times out here is watching football and having a drink at an Irish pub called Kells in the Financial district every Monday!I will be home in Ohio Dec. 10-26. Hope to see you soon!
