Quick Update

Sorry it's been so long since I've written. Things are going well in Greenville, but things have also been pretty busy lately. Here's a quick update of what I've been up to and I'm hoping sometime tomorrow or Thursday I'll be able to elaborate more.

Thursday(6/25): Worked 12 hour day to make up for lost time. I stayed late and attended a Final Step Presentation where kids currently on probation come in and tour the prison and here the stories of current roommates. I wish I could have found out what was going through their heads.
Friday(6/26): Attended internship enrichment activity at Tryon Palace. Met other interns and toured Tryon Palace which is beautiful. Traveled home to Apex and got to see my family and Adam!
Saturday (6/27): My family found a rabbit nest in our backyard and that was very exciting for us. Spent the whole day with my family which was wonderful. Karen (my little sis) wanted to make dinner for our family, so we did that, except I cheated a little bit and bought the main course (chicken) from KFC. We also made some peach cobbler which was so delicious and so easy. Just a large can of peaches, a tablespoon of cinnamon, a box of yellow cake, and a stick of butter. That's all! Adam came over for dinner too and it was great.
Sunday (6/28): Church at Calvary Chapel. So wonderful. I miss it a lot.
Monday (6/29): Stuffing envelopes for 3 hours then working on inmate case plans and assessments. Each inmate is assigned a plan and assessment when they enter the prison system which includes what programs they should be assigned to and stuff like that.
Today, Tuesday (6/30): All day in the medical files room. The medical unit is very understaffed and they had a lot of extra filing to do. Although I didn't get as much human interaction as usual, the time passed by really quickly which was nice. I also have spent a lot of time with my roommate Katie today. We went to Olive Garden and have just been talking a lot. It's been nice.

I feel weird writing such a list-like entry but I at least wanted to give an update and not just have a week of my internship missing. I'm not sure if that makes sense. Oh well. Until next time!
