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

  1. 私が参加した2015年のfreeeのエンジニアサマーインターンは、参加人数3人、実施期間3日間で、freeeが提供する「会社設立freee」の機能追加や改善タスクをそれぞれがこなし、出したプルリクエストをメンターにレビューしてもらうという内容でした。承継し、100%子会社としてAxcelead Drug Discovery Partners株式会社が発足。 「および」は種類や性質が同じものをつなぐ言葉なのに対し、「並びに」は種類や性質がことなるものをつなぐ際に使われるようになっています。同義の言葉として「もしくは」もありますが、こちらは「または」よりあらたまった表現となっています。 こちらも漢文訓読に由来する語となっています。 そして不可欠の要素は、俺と酒を飲んで見劣りのしないようなやつを選んでくれ」と注文を付けた。 「および」は複数のことがらを並べて挙げるだけですが、「または」の場合は、その中から1つ選ぶ場合に使われるようになっています。 インドネシア、北カリマンタン州タラカンを出港した船が沖合で転覆。

  3. of course like your web site however you have to test the spelling on quite a few of
    your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I
    to find it very bothersome to inform the truth on the other hand I’ll definitely
    come again again.
