back to bloggin'

Not sure if it's a permanent decision, but I thought I'd start writing on here again. It's been more than a year since last time I posted something (May 6, 2009). Maybe, eventually I'll move all of this over to my own website.

The past year has been full of a lot of things, but my memory fails me at the moment everything that happened. So to recap the most recent things:
  • I've been interning at Indianapolis Monthly magazine since January, which has been a great learning experience and fun at the same time. I'll be at the magazine until the end of May, then trying to find full-time employment like so many others.
  • I finished at Purdue (again) last weekend. Now I've got professional writing under my belt!
  • I ran/walked the Indy 500 Mini-Marathon. I didn't meet the goal I had wanted to, but I've decided I'll sign up for the Indy Monumental Half-Marathon again. This time, the plan is to actually, really properly train so that my goal is achievable. What an idea, huh?
  • Oh, and I moved to Indy in March and live a block away from the Indianapolis Museum of Art with my good friend, Emily.
Other things -- I finally got around to watching "The Girl in the Cafe," which I really liked and makes me appreciate Bill Nighy even more. And, I bought She & Him "Volume Two" today. I've got the first two songs, "Thieves" (love the strings arrangement) and "In the Sun," on repeat . I'll make it to the others later this week...
