Where I’ve Been

By Amanda – Posted on

Hello friends,

It feels like I’m emerging from a void or the “upside-down” with this blog post. It’s been a very long time since I’ve written here. I have some interesting updates that explain where I’ve been all this time.

My 2018 had a very slow start but has become a life-changing year. I began 2018 focused on applying to jobs and updating this website, all while working a part-time retail job. Finally, 80 job applications later, I got an opportunity to start my career in environmental management with an amazing two-year internship! I got news about my placement in June, and by July I had moved to a new city and started my job.  

I now live in Peterborough, Ontario. It’s a small, growing city with lots of character. Callie made it to Peterborough too, and together we’ve been getting settled in our new home. If anything, she’s adjusted much better than me. I still wake up confused sometimes, unable to tell whether I’m in Vancouver, Ottawa or Peterborough. Funny how it feels like it took forever to get to this point, yet my body still hasn’t adjusted to the new reality. 

My new city is beautiful in a small city way. The neighborhoods are lined with big, old trees, and the houses here have colonial style (think archways, columns, and bedroom attics). I’m still adjusting to all my new routines, but I’ve been loving going to work. It’s rewarding to be able to use the knowledge and skills that I’ve spent so long developing. All I wanted while working retail was to be intellectually challenged. I won’t take that for granted now.  

Well, that’s my update. Now that things have settled down, I hope to write here more frequently. Stay tuned for more updates on “Callie and Amanda’s Grand Adventure” haha. 

I hope you’ve all been well too!

  1. Посреди самых узнаваемых романов Достоевского “Правонарушение и наказание” (1866), “Идиот” (1869), “Братья Карамазовы” (1880) и “Дьяволы” (1872). Любой из этих романов глубоко изучит людскую природу и нравственные проблемы.

    – “Правонарушение и наказание” анализирует внутренние метания Раскольникова, который совершает убийство под идеей “величавого человека”. данный роман задает много вопросов о добром деле и зле, справедливости и наказании.

    – “Идиот” представляет князя Мышкина, олицетворение добра и сострадания, который сталкивается с пороками и лицемерием общества.

    – “Братья Карамазовы” непростой философский и нравственный труд, который разглядывает основы веры, свободы воли и ответственности.

    Теоретические взгляды

    Достоевский также занимался вопросами философии и религии. В его произведениях прослеживаются идеи про то, что мученье и искушение могут привести к духовному возрождению. Он также изучит концепции свободы, веры и нравственной ответственности, что делает его произведения глубоко философскими.

    Личность и судьба

    Личная жизнь Достоевского была полна страданий Ветхий Завет и испытаний. Он пережил личные катастрофы, включая утрату возлюбленных людей и финансовые трудности.

    Наследие

    Фёдор Михайлович Достоевский оставил после себя богатое литературное наследство, которое продолжает вдохновлять и исследоваться. Его творчество оказало существенное влияние на следующие поколения писателей, философов и ученых. Сейчас Достоевский считается не только классиком российской литературы, а также величайшим писателем, который продолжает вызывать интерес и восхищение по во всем мире.

    Напоследок, Достоевский это сложно автор великих романов, а глубокий мыслитель, который осознавал людскую природу как никто другой, обращая внимание на её черные и ясные стороны. Его работы делают отличное предложение читателям богатый материал для размышлений о самих для себя и своём месте во всем мире.
