This was the busiest month of my life! Some events are not included because it was that crazy!
I went on a camping trip to a beautiful gem in Idaho called Gold Bug Hot Springs. It was the shortest
but steepest hike I have ever done and proved that I need to start working out
more. The view was well worth it and I recommend it to anyone!
(It was a perfect 2 days for camping, hiking, sitting under waterfalls, and gorgeous views!)
Then the next weekend I had the opportunity to travel to New York City for a whole week. I was
chosen as one of six students to advocate for the unit of the family at the United Nations’: Commission on the
Status of Women. I went as an intern for a nonprofit NGO (non-governmental organization) that hosted Fight the New Drug at a parallel event. I was chosen as one of two students to speak alongside the CEO of FTND, Clay Olsen. It was an eye opening experience for who I am, what I believe, why I believe
it, and what I want to do with my future career and future schooling. I went so many places! Here are just a few. #pornkillslove
(Time Square, Les Miz, Brooklyn Bridge Freedom Tower view, Rockefeller Center, Clay Olsen and I after we spoke.)
The day after I came home I went to Jackson Hole, Wyoming for the Zac Brown Band Concert being held
there. Randomly before the concert we were in one of the tourist shops in Jackson Square and I look up and see Zac Brown himself
standing right in front of us! I was with 2 huge guys that happen to be
twins. We were so close to the stage later that night that he recognized them
and smiled at us the whole night!
(It was freezing cold hence the jacket, creeper picture!)
The following Tuesday I drove 13 hours to Portland, Oregon for my best friend’s
wedding! I spent a week there being a tourist and helping out as much as I
could with the wedding. I was chosen to do her hair for her big day. Talk about
nerve wracking!
(Cannon Beach, Silver Creek Falls, Downtown Portland bachelorette party, Horsetail Falls, Wedding Day!)
Once I came back to Badger Creek I was working with my boss my last day and he, out of the blue, offered me a job for the summer to stay here and be an AFY (Adventure for Youth) counselor! So all of my plans for summer changed at the absolute last minute and I’m anticipating an amazing summer to come!
