Phase 4.5

Welcome to the fourth and a half phase of my adult life. Phase 1 was Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Phase 2, UNC Chapel Hill. Phase 2.5 back to Tyler and being a live in nanny (a story in itself but not really a phase on its own). Phase 3.5 graduate school at the University of Pennsylvania.
Now Phase 4.5, the first 'real job': art instructor in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This blog will cover the logistics, emotions, and discoveries of being a single american woman working alone in Riyadh. What it takes to make it, and my musings on art, life, & culture. It is a blog after all.

PEOPLE IN NEW JERSEY RIGHT NOW:
Sayreville New Jersey Animal Rescue Center is closing due to Sandy. They don’t know what to do with animals and are giving them away for free. Tell your friends, they are going to euthanize what they can’t save. The animals all have their shots, it’s free adoptions. they’re also neutered/spayed. time to surprise your parents for Christmas! 


please signal boost this if you can!!

I just ran 10.5 miles. Up a mountain. In the rain. On 4 hours of sleep. Kinda feeling like a boss. :D
