लाइफ गोएस ओं

Life never ceases to amaze me. One month I am feeling utterly stagnant in my surroundings and the next I am poised on the edge of some amazing life changes. In the matter of a couple days Matthew and I both were offered jobs in our field. Next month we will be uprooting our life in Fairbanks and moving to our respective new adventures.

He will be moving to Dillingham, Alaska to be the Program Director for KDLG. This is a huge accomplishment for someone right out of college. Actually, he landed this job with a month an a half left in his undergrad career. Pretty amazing in my mind. I can't even express my pride in his accomplishments.

I, on the other hand, will be moving to Altoona, PA for the summer. I have been hired on to a field crew, studying grassland birds on reclaimed mining sites. Such a huge weight has been lifted from my soul, just knowing I will be finally working in my chosen field. I will be sure to update this page with pictures and stories of my summer adventures.

There is a plan in place for after my summer is over, but as plans wont to do, they can change. I will write more of those possibilities as they approach closer.

Take care my friends!
