In less than two weeks, I will have a Bachelor's Degree in Judaic Studies...which makes me qualified to do nothing!

Somehow, I am going to graduate on May 17th.
I have plans for the summer.
I have a full-time job that starts in August.
I've never been so terrified in my life.

I'm spending a few weeks in New Orleans this summer working as Mitzvah Corps of the South Student Life Coordinator. I've been working at Kutz since I was old enough to be a staff member, and I'm having a hard time picturing this summer without it...
I guess I have to move on at some point? For the rest of the summer I'll be in Suffern hopefully working at Walgreen's and studying for the GRE's so I can start applying to Rabbinical school (ahhh!!) in the near future.

In August I will be moving to Greensboro, North Carolina to be a fellow at the American Hebrew Academy. It kind of sounds like I'm going to to be a camp counselor/mother/teacher/mentor type person. The job sounds so perfect. I hope I love it!

So like I said before, I'm kind of in shock that I'm graduating. I'm finding it hard to imagine my life without Hillel at Binghamton. It has totally become my life. I never thought I'd find such an incredible community here. I'm having a really hard time saying goodbye to all of the incredible people I've met here. I've become especially close to my Hillel Director and Rabbi...they have done so much for me, and have become such incredible role models. I've grown so much Jewishly, spiritually, personally, and maybe even a little academically because I've know them.

I hope I am lucky enough to find such warm and welcoming people wherever I find myself during the next stage in life.

I'm supposed to be finished a paper that has to be done before my 8:30 class tomorrow. I'm on page 2 of 7...clearly college has not improved my time management skills.

I think it's time for a little nap...
