Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

Look! My friend Anna made a birthday mixtape for me and crafted this magnificent container to hold it.

Day 31: thu, 24 oct 2013. Celebrating my birthday (again) at the Grass Skirt with friends from senior ad. (Haley was there too! I think I made this wonky pano while she was in the bathroom. Oh no—sorry Haley!)

October 23 also happens to be my birthday. To celebrate, I had not one but two delicious meals with dear friends. First: breakfast at with John (my birthday twin!). We met each other at the DK Diner at 7am to have a delightful meal before heading to class. Note John’s utterly sleepy facial expression and the fact that it is still pitch black outside. Also: for lunch, I continued the tradition of eating Polish food with Jason at the North Market. (Amanda was not present and was greatly missed.)

Day 30: wed, 23 oct 2013. Kicking off a new team project for Jim Johnson’s class with Josh and Alix, we take a little walk to Columbus’ beautiful Thurber House (our new client).

Day 29: tue, 22 oct 2013. Theresa brought caramel apple suckers into class but was too embarrassed to share them, so I did the honors.
