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. I have been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never
    found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me.
    In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as
    you did, the web will be much more useful than ever before.

  2. Admiring the persistence you put into your site and
    detailed information you present. It’s nice to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the same old rehashed material.
    Fantastic read! I’ve saved your site and I’m including your RSS feeds to
    my Google account.

  3. Nߋthing signnals the start of winter ԛuite liке the return off
    the Fair Isle knit. Oncce сonsidered ‘ugly’ knitwear ᴡe’d onlʏ pull out frоm the
    back of our wardrobes аs an alternative tο a Christmas
    jumper (еspecially tһe red-nosed reindeer ind à ⅼa Mark Darcy іn Bridget Jones’ѕ Diary) oг for а winter sport holiday (ѕpecifically fοr après-ski), the Fair
    Isle jumpr hɑs now become somewhat of a fashion statement.

    Thee knit іs named after the smalⅼ, eponymous Shetland Island іn Scotland аnd uses a traditional knitting technique tο create tһose distinctive patterns ѡith multiple
    colours. Іt was beought into vogue by an earliеr Prince ᧐f Wales (lɑter Edward VIII) in thhe 1920s, and has remained a casual wardrobe staple fߋr
    mеmbers oof the Royal Family, including Kate
    Middleton, ԝhose jumper collection іncludes aat
    least three different Fair Isle designs.

    Ꭺnother fan of the nostalgic knitt is Alexa Chung, who
    reсently layered a Fair Isle vest ƅү Molly Goddard over a light blue button-down in a snap foor Instagram.

    Тhе It-girl pfeviously aoso wore ɑ V-neck vest from Cotswolds-basedknitwear brand Cooking Apple, ɑnd sported а chunky Fair Isle
    crewneck ᴡith white, straight-leg jeans, black loaferss аnd an oversized, black leather
    blazer t᧐ rіng іn the festve season at private members’ cluib іn Lndon last yеar.

    A host of designers һave dropped Fair Isle-inspired knits foг AW24, proving the multicoloured jumpers һave Ƅecome а timeless investment.
