Well yea it is nice every once in a while to see old friends regardless of how close we all were etc.  I actually tried to get together with Bayley one night this summer, but she was in FL.  Guitar hero is awesome.  I haven't played it in a while tho.  I start work next week...ahhh.  Oh well, here we go i guess? right?  Uh, so yea nothing else is really new here yet.  Let me know the details aobut yoru new place and how soon you get to move in!!!  Good luck!! Miss you, you abandoning whore haha jk...love love!!!

Around Beantown...

Hey Girls (aka Akemi),

I will not discouraged by the lack of participation. I know it will just take you time to begin to use this blog. And in the mean time I will post.

So my big excitement of the weekend was that I bought guitar hero. Our reunion made me want it so bad, and it was tax free weekend here, so I figured I could splurge from my first paycheck.

Second importance, I had dinner last night with JULIE W. AND BAYLEY! Bayley called because she came up to pack up her apartment ( which is really nice - her, Bobby, and Julie all live there with two other girls). It actually was really nice to see them and hear about how they were doing and others. Julie is filling in her medical forms but is planning on going into the Peace Corps in a year. Bayley is going to Disney for a food and beverage internship and then wants to go to nursing school. They said everyone else was good. Mike is back with that bitchy girlfriend ( which is bad), Bobby doesn't have a job yet and is dating some girl from his sailing team for like a year now, Carrie is working in NY as a paralegal but doesn't love it. I feel like there was more but I can't entirely remember it.

Anyways, keep me posted.

Miss you all/Kemi who will be reading this.

Kisses,
Emily

Hey Em, 

   So it seems that you and I are the only participants thus far haha.  Anyway, Congrats again on your apt.  I look forward to seeing it.  In the meantime, when you get it set up and stuff, post pics.  Also, when do you move in?  And do you mean 915 each or total?  Either way that is great for boston, esp Cambridge.  When do you start your new job?  I want to hear all about it.  

Anyway, my life...hmmmm.  Nothing is new.  I finished working for seij yesterday.  I have to work one day next weekend.  Ive been to wfs a couple times.  Going over the room and curriculum.  Nothing special.  I have meetings come the last week of Aug.  First day of school is the 3rd!  First day of school haha sounds funny, now that i'm in the reverse role.  Home is pretty boring...nobody's around and JULIE who lives right in Many. is way too cool for school and busy to hang out.  Lameee.  Uh, yea so that's about it.  I'll update you if anything else is new.  Keep me updated and I'll chat with you later!!

xoxo

I hope it is not just me here...

Friends, Chicas, Girlies --

I hope that this blog is not just me telling you about my life. Until more people invest in it, I will continue to just share about me.

I got a job yesterday as a youth group advisor in a synagogue about 20 minutes from Brandeis. I am really excited. And it pays really well! And it should be fun.

Just letting you know about all the excitement I'm having. hehe. O, and I saw Step Brothers, and it was SOOO stupid, but surprisingly fun. O, and I had the best beer combo last night called an Adams Apple. It's hard half hard cider and half Sam Adams. So good. you should try it out this fall!

Kisses,
Emily

I FOUND AN APARTMENT!

Hey chicas,

Craziest story ever. So yesterday Lydia, her mom, Jeff, and I set out to go apartment hunting. We had three picked out and scheduled - two by Porter Square and one in Inman Square. So, Lydia and her mom get to the first one and no one is there. So they go to Starbucks to discuss and this woman overhears them and tells them that there is a spot available in her apartment complex around the corner. So, we head over and look at the apartment. Really cute. sort of small but wooden floors. nice kitchen. REALLY CLEAN!! We go and tell the people we are interested and they tell us it is only $915 ( before utilities). Let me tell you, for Cambridge that is AWESOME!! I was thinking it would be about 1300 ( Jeff though 1600). It was ridiculous. So, we fill out the paper work, return it, and never go to any of the apartments we had scheduled. It was awesome and great luck.

(This is Porter Square at the T-stop)

So, I have a place I will be living. I expect you all to visit. It will be adorable.

Kisses,
Emily

Heyy,

     I see you got Kalisa to actually sign up for this one hahah.  Anyway, I'm so glad you're doing well.  Good luck apt hunting!  Nothing is really new on my front.  Just working and days off.  Tomorrow, I'm going to WFS to start to set up the room and plan our social studies curriculum.  I'm excited for this to start.  Anyway, today's my day off so I need to go do some errands.  Talk to you all soon!!  Good idea Em.  xoxox

Let's Keep in Touch : Electronic Attempt Number 2!

HEY FRIENDS!!!
Ok so blogging is the coolest thing these days. And is easier than live journal ( or like the same thing ), so I figured we should try this out ONE MORE TIME. Right now I am at my office in the Cohen Center for Modern Jewish Studies ( the top right of this beautiful blue Brandeis campus map). I am officially starting week 2. So far things have been good. Waiting to pick up a little, but its chugging along. My biggest thing right now is finding an apartment. You may or may not know that I am apartment hunting with Kemi's friend Lydia. Tonight we are looking at three, so hopefully one works out. Its getting a little late. And Jeff is also looking. So, its a bit of a stressful time.

I am also interviewing for jobs as a Hebrew School teacher or youth advisor. I hope I am not getting involved in too much, but I hate being bored. And, if I get this job, it pays REALLY well. If I get it, I will brag how much. Not until then, though.

cultural tip: this weekend I saw "Man on Wire" with my uncles ( Danny and Artie, for those of you who have met them). IT WAS FANTASTIC!! It gave me total vertigo ( it is about a wire walker who walked in between the WTC!!) . But it is SOOO good. You should all go see it!!! Its an artsy film, but I'm sure you would be able to find it.

Ok. I miss you all. Let's for real keep in touch.

Kisses,
Emily
