Ren Fest

Friday Snapshots

Happy Friday! Here are some snapshots of my life lately.

I was in charge of the newspaper booth at PSU’s back to school bash on Wednesday. The back to school bash is always fun because a free lunch is provided, students get to sign up for clubs (like newspaper club–woo!), and play games. And hang out with the school mascot…

Jimmy and I are reading the book of Proverbs together. There’s much wisdom in Proverbs!

I am clearly really, really good at drawing huskies and pumpkins. I’m pretty sure the husky has a stink eye goin’ on.

Jimmy and I went to the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival for the third year in a row. It never gets old! I posted about it in 2011 and 2012.

Coffee never gets old, either. Ever.

Well, I’m off to start my Friday. I have some interviews to conduct for an article I’m currently working on. Yay for journalism!

I also wrote my first editorial of the semester the other day.ย It’s about Miley Cyrus’ VMA performance. You can check it out here, on PSU’s student newspaper website.

What are you up to this weekend?!
I’ve got something crazy going on tomorrow. It’s going to be very similar to this experience!

Glimpses of the Pittsburgh Ren Fest

Hello all! Sunday was a lovely day. Jimmy and I went to the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival! Basically it is a big celebration of the 16th century. All of the workers dress up and some of the people who go dress up as well! Jousting, turkey legs, axe throwing, glass blowing and much more makes for a fun time. Here are some pictures I took…
