Admittedly I have been less than stellar about my attention to the important things this summer, such as preparing for my freshman year of college and arriving to work on time. Despite this I have been having an amazing summer. I have been seeing a nice guy from outside (anywhere outside Alaska, usually the Lower 48 states) for a while, and I have enjoyed doing lovely Alaskan things and just hanging out. The other day we went Kayaking, it was both our first time, and we were surprised by just how difficult it actually was. I have also made some other good new friends. My town attracts tons of seasonal workers so the summers are packed with new and exciting people from all over the world. Its great to go to work and be excited to see people you genuinely like.
I suppose one of the coolest things that I have done this summer is attend a Renaissance Fair in Anchorage. It was all pretty awesome, I think I am a renaissance fair geek under all my other geekiness. The dressing up and large ears of corn were just about all it took for me to fall in love with the whole thing.
In other exciting news My darling Darling friend Kelsey from New York who I know from Hungary is going to be visiting me here in Alaska in less than two weeks. She lands on the 2nd and leaves on the 12th. I have many adventures planned and I am excited to show her all of my lovely home (hopefully rainfree).
For once I am not anxious of fall to come, despite the coming of my freshman year of college, I will have to see off my longtime friend and sort time beau to the Navy, and my wonderful outsider back to the outside.
