So, it looks like I won’t be doing any sort of trip recap post after all. Strangely enough, I feel so far away from it all already. Bottom line: It was a really, really great and I’m so glad I decided to go. Not only was it a good time to see a part of the world that I’ve always wanted to see, but it also gave me time to be on my own for a while and to do exactly what I wanted to be doing. As selfish as this all sounds, it was pretty great.
It’s been a long and slow three weeks since I’ve home. It’s been really great to see everybody again, but boy, real life seems a little bit boring after such a fantastic trip. I’ve been filling my time with lots of job searching, school researching, and GRE preparing. It’s weird having nothing going on, but at the same time feeling busy.
There have also been good things, though! It’s so nice to be able to cook again. And to sleep in a comfortable, warm bed every night. Friends are the best. And, of course, Washington is still one of the most beautiful places in the world (see evidence below).
