Where I’ve Been

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! 

Amanda

    When I look at your blog site in Ie, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it
    has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

  5. Real estate investing can be focused on either residential, commercial or land.
    Want to know how to build wealth quickly with real estate?
    One of the advantages of real estate investing is using the principle of leverage (i.e.
    a mortgage) to buy an asset that you otherwise couldn’t’t afford.
    Warren Buffett is a great example of someone who created massive
    wealth through investing in paper assets.

  6. How will you collect the money that your customers owe you?
    Analysts and investors utilize the Merton model to understand how
    capable a company is at meeting financial obligations, servicing its debt, and weighing the general possibility that it will go into credit default.
    Reduced-form models are an approach to credit risk modeling
    that contrasts sharply with “structural credit models”, the best known of which is the Merton model of 1974.
    Reduced-form models focus on modeling the probability of default as
    a statistical process, whereas structural-models inhere a microeconomic
    model of the firm’s capital structure, deriving the (single-period) probability of default from the random variation in the (unobservable) value of
    the firm’s assets.

  7. What happens if the protection tackles the ball carrier in his personal end
    zone? In the NFL, what occurs if the sport is tied at the tip of the fourth quarter?
    What happens when there’s simply two minutes left in either half?

  8. The second recreation went into additional innings tied 4-4, after the Blue Jays surrendered a 4-0 lead.
    Dickey would lead the Blue Jays to a 7-1 win over the Mets, splitting the sequence at 2-games apiece.
    The Blue Jays would lose the following recreation 3-2,
    after being shut down most of the game by Mets starter Matt Harvey.

  9. First launched in 1960, Groot was not at all times the lovable tree that is seen at
    present. He had malicious intent when he appeared in “Tales to Astonish” however was
    introduced some forty six years later as
    a heroic type. It was Marvel’s authentic intent to launch an entire Luke Cage movie, but it
    surely never bought off the ground.
