it's the summer holidays

well friends,

after a long and tiring semester in which on holiday was sadly updated only sparsely, i am back!  it's the summer holiday, and i will be spending it in los angeles, because it is sunny here.  

these are the things i will be doing:
1. working in the usc grand street library:  this is the library where usc books go when they are unloved.  i shelve them and update the records.  but the best part is when i steal away, snatch a book from the shelves, and read in the book stacks.  books perused so far include: what to do with your money, best business schools in america, manifest destiny and the period before the civil war, and a 1928 copy of "vanity fair."  

2. interning at pacific stages.  they're an up-and-coming theatre company, and i will be helping to produce the summer season of staged readings.

3. planning lots of events and things for the girls that will join adpi in the fall.  this includes planning bid night, buying lots of thing with "alpha delta pi!!!!" written on them, and checking another email account.  

i promise to update weekly, with details of these happenings and also of the shenanigans that take place during the weekends.  i'm planning to "tour" LA and do things i've never done before, like to to griffith park and the la brea tarpits.  

xoxo
