A great, big, long, over due update.

Wow. I've really been neglecting this blog. But fear not world, I am still alive. And here is the long awaited update on the world of Emily.

I'm in the midst of finals week here. 2 down, 2 more to go. My classes all went fairly well semester. I enjoyed some, hated others. The usual. I return to good ol' Roseau Minnesota on Saturday. I can't believe how fast this semester went. Eeeeek.

Being an resident assistant has been absolutely wonderful. I love my dorm. Love my girls. It's had its hard moments to be sure, but it's been really great. I'm really looking forward to next semester and the chance to get to know my girls better. There are a lot of things I still want to do, but God has done more with my dorm than I had ever dreamed.

I'm working hard on memorizing my lines for the play. As I mentioned, I'm Annie Sullivan, the teacher of Helen Keller in "The Miracle Worker." It's going really well. The rehearsals are really long at time, some approach five hours. However, the director and the cast are all amazing people. It's been forever since I've done real theater. And it's going to be grand. If anyone wants to come see it...March 21st-24th. Providence College. Be there.

I'm employed by the yearbook here. I write articles and captions. Yes, that's right, I'm being paid to write. What a beautiful idea. It's a great job. The whole yearbook staff went to Winnipeg for sushi the other night. Nice perks. :D

So first semester has been quite grand. And I'm looking forward to what's in store next semester.

Oh, one last thing. I've found myself a really wonderful guy. His name is Taylor Summach. He's from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. We been a dating for a month now....and he's...amazing. So, in closing, here is a lovely photo and me and Taylor.
