HELLO, SUMMER!

The last two weeks have been very hectic to say the least. I successfully moved out of the Towers and stayed with my mom in Manhattan for a week. It was nice to get a break from school and work. On June 2nd, I drove back to Newark to move into my new apartment! Luckily, everything worked out smoothly. One of my roommates is also here, so together we have set up our rooms, cable, and internet (you know, the essentials!).

In addition to getting settled at my new home, I have started working full time! This summer, I am a Summer Blue Hen Ambassador (SBHA) which is a program of about 22 current UD students who work in all aspects of the Admissions office including processing applications, answering questions via email and phone, working the front desk, and of course giving tours. This week was primarily training and a “get to know one another” week. It’s been a blast and I’m really enjoying the job as well as my co-workers. I’m looking forward to mastering all of my skills throughout the summer! image

Today, my roommates and I went to our future apartment to look at what furniture the previous owners wanted to leave behind and such. They were so nice and helpful and really seemed to love the place, which makes me excited. Since I will be staying here in Newark this summer working as a Summer BHA, I will be living in this place starting June 1st! I’m looking forward to decorating it and having a little extra room to split among 4 people!

"Waste Land" Official Trailer, 2010

I watched this documentary for my Latin American Art class. It is about a modern artist, Vik Muniz, who travels to the Jardim Gramacho, the largest landfill in the world located in Rio de Janeiro. He creates large-scale mosaic like photographs from garbage of the amazing “pickers” who work there, raising over $250,000 for the community. I highly recommend this, I really enjoyed it!
