It’s been a while since you and I have last spoken. How have you been? I’ve been great actually. Thanks for asking! I have so much to tell you! We should catch up over a latte some time.

I am in dublin airport right now about to hop a flight to edinburgh, scotland and digging international 3G for no extra cost (thanks T-Mobile!)

I graduated last week. Finished my game up, presented it, and strolled across the stage.

Some things in the near future are looking exciting, and others terrifying. Lots of big plans and bigger dreams

Take care of yourself juice. You will be hearing from me soon.
