I just realized how long it has been since I last wrote. Honestly I hate to say, that not much else is going on in my life. This small little Vermont town isn’t much on excitement; it does have its weird moments, but not the typical fun that I find when I’m back at school.
For instance, I had last Friday off, so I decided to go do my errands. I’m driving back into downtown, when I notice something a little different. Ok, first you gotta remember where I am. Think trees, hippies, and white. Diversity isn’t the first thing that pops into my mind when I think of this town. So I see this woman, black, dread locks. She looks familiar to me, so I inch my car a little bit further up (I’m in traffic) and I look over and low and behold. It is Whoopi Goldburgh. I couldn’t believe it. I’ve been living here for 7 months and I always hear these stories of people meeting her, or that she comes into town to go to the bar or bowling, etc. Now I can finally say I saw Whoopi Goldburgh.
The leaves are not to their full luster yet. I’m kinda glad though because originally I heard that this weekend was THE weekend to go leaf peeping; which sucks for me because I’m not going to be in Vermont this weekend. Hopefully in a couple weeks I will get to see what the Vermont trees have to offer.
My coop is winding down, I’ll be back at school in 6 weeks, 4 of which I will loose because I’ll be working 60-72 hours a week at work. Time flies when you are not paying attention to it.
