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. Когда пациент решает обратиться за помощью к наркологу на дом, ему предстоит пройти ряд этапов лечения, каждый из которых будет направлен на устранение последствий алкоголизма. Врач проведет первичный осмотр, выслушает жалобы пациента и на основе собранной информации начнёт индивидуальную программу лечения. При этом многие частные наркологи на дом предлагают конкурентоспособные цены и высококачественные услуги.

  2. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
    my own weblog and was curious what all is needed to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost
    a pretty penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Kudos
