this week was my first full week working at the retreat house and i have to say, i love my job! ive been extra busy trying to nail down my routine and what works to get everything done which left me little time for blogging. so this installment of insta-glance is a collection of photos from work i took througout the week.

The News

I figured I’d do a little post about what’s been new in my world.

 

Ashley visited me in school the other day!  She was there to audition for a Kim Kardashian makeover on the Wendy Williams show. After, she stopped by and checked out my school and even met some of my class mates. We joked how we live right around the corner from each other and end end up hanging out in NYC.

We posed with our Starbucks cups just to prove we were in chicks in the city.  And guess what?  SHE WON! The show will air on  Monday May 2nd.  Cant wait to watch!

 

I ventured back out into the workout arena with a 2 mile fast walk on the beach/boardwalk with my mom.  Sadly, this place is going to be flooded with skanks soon.

I recently adopted a sweet wide angle lens for my camera from Dad!  Its taking a while to get used to but I’m getting the hang of it and I’m starting to get some hey man, nice shots.

The ducks are back the pool back at the rents house.  The same ones come every year to hang out. This one struck a pose!
