Above: Harry, Drew and Robbie pose uniquely for a picture (as they often do) while huddling around a table in the restaurant that sits perched down the right field line at Comerica Park. We were on hand to watch the Tigers lose to the New York Yankees on a cold Tuesday evening.
I went into this late spring/summer a little down after watching college suddenly disappear right before my eyes. College truly was the best time of my life and I was fearful to watch it go.
However, this past week really offered a different perspective on how this summer is going to roll along. I was fortunately able to attend all three games of the Tigers-Yankees series at Comerica and that really helped to lift my spirits. I found myself in a much better mood when I headed back to Kalamazoo on Thursday then when I bolted for Detroit on Monday.
I'm planning on making the most of this summer, even if it takes me awhile to find a job. I have a lot to look forward to (Drew's wedding, bachelor party, Don's wedding, Tigers' games, trips up north and who knows what else). If this is indeed my last hoorah in Kalamazoo, I want to make the best of it.
The weather has been generous the past few days which doesn't hurt the self esteem by any means.
I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to have one last summer here in the zoo and to spend it with my friends. Hopefully what I foresee as a being a great summer really happens and I look back in August and note that it was a much more successful summer than I predicted.
I'm going to leave you one more little snippet from the Western Herald. This link takes you to my final article that I ever wrote for the WMU student-run newspaper, but it certainly won't be the last article I ever write. I've been on the job hunt and I've sent my resume and clips out to a few different newspapers, so we'll see how that turns out. Just looking for anything at this point.
Hopefully with some more time, I'll get on here and blog a little more often.
