why studying has been difficult this summer.

I went to Vegas for the first time:



I packed up all my stuff and jammed it into the storage/laundry room at my old house:


Then I went home to Texas and turned 25 with the help of some dos ritas:


I said goodbye to Princeton for a year with a deliciousssss meal...

and a fourth of july trifle (1/2).
But on the ACTUAL 4th of July I was in Bmore:
(this is a horrible picture, o wells)
where I made MORE TRIFLES!!!

Then I went to global health camp/Fogarty/Doris Duke international orientation and met a bunch of really cool peeps:
and saw Brandon on the east coast one last time while watching the Nationals lose:


More cool peeps, at our nightly rooftop pool parties at the Doubletree Bethesda:

Team Uganda! These are the Fogarty fellows/scholars that will be in Uganda. And Alex and I, the Doris Dukers.

Then on Monday I hopped a plane and moved to the West Coast, where my craigslist housing turned out to be adorable:

And met my 3rd roommate:


And ate awesometimes donuts on my 2nd day.


So, when I fail my Step 2 exam, this is the photo essay I'm going to title "why doing my homework was hard this summer." Each of these events deserves a blog post in itself; however, I'm supposed to be studying!! Haha.
