An Update! At last!

I know it's been forever since I updated...but truthfully, as I had a large paper due today, I was avoiding any kind of writing that I could.

But now school is over until August (not long enough, if you ask me), and I'm working full-time, supervising summer camp for the Arc. I'm going to have my hands full, I can tell. For the next 9 weeks, I anticipate being utterly exhausted. And then school starts back as soon as it's over.

As far as my Triangle to-do list goes, I've only accomplished trying 3 new restaurants, all of them in Raleigh:
  • The Flying Biscuit. This serves mostly breakfast, and you get a biscuit with every meal, even sandwiches. I thought it was reasonably priced for the amount of food you get, but there was a long wait and the service was a bit spotty. So, I might go back, but not for Sunday brunch.
  • Waffle House. Ok, this counts, b/c I had never been to one--and it was surprisingly good! I had a chicken biscuit and thought it was quite good. Plus, everything was really cheap--but our waitress was on hour 13 of her shift, and I just felt sorry for her, so I left a big tip.
  • Neomonde. This is a Greek/Lebanese place. I had falafel, baba ghanouj (however you spell that), and rice lentils, and thought they were all quite tasty. Plus they have a nice patio area where you can sit.
So overall, not much accomplished. But I have decided to get my nonprofit certificate, which can hopefully help me get a job post-graduation. More on that front later...
