Beginnings & Endings

So today was a very eventful day for both Ryan and I. We'll start with Ryan's day because it was far more exciting. It was his first day at work, and it seems like it went really well. He got an office with a big desk and a big window--a window? a private office? what are those?? He also was told that he will probably be heading to Amsterdam and possibly Liverpool at the end of July for training (Amsterdam) and meeting people he will talk to frequently at the manufacturing plant (Liverpool). It's not definite but seems likely so that's exciting.

As for my day, I finished my first graduate school class. Don't know how I did but I think I at least survived. It feels good to finish one and know that I didn't forget how to study (and cram at the last minute!). I still have two classes, but I just have to go to campus once a day in the mornings now, so no back-and-forth which is good. My friend Laura and her fiance Brian are coming to visit this weekend for the 4th of July so I'm going to spend my new found free time cleaning, cooking, and getting ready for their visit. My old roommate from sophomore year may also be in town. We are excited to see people we know here.
