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! 

Amanda

  3. This is the right webpage for anybody who hopes to understand
    this topic. You understand a whole lot its almost hard
    to argue with you (not that I actually will need to…HaHa).
    You certainly put a fresh spin on a subject that’s been discussed for years.
    Great stuff, just wonderful!

  6. Анонимное лечение при выводе из запоя в Москве подразумевает, что пациент имеет возможность получить профессиональную медицинскую помощь, не раскрывая при этом свою личность, что особенно важно для тех, кто по разным причинам не желает, чтобы информация о прохождении лечения становилась доступной третьим лицам, обеспечивая максимальный комфорт и безопасность в процессе выздоровления.

  10. I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your
    site. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire
    out a designer to create your theme? Outstanding
    work!

  18. First of all I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question in which
    I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
    I have had a hard time clearing my mind in getting my ideas
    out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to
    15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
    Many thanks!
