Re-Americanizing...

...and readjusting to "real life".

Hi all. I realize it's been an incredibly long time since my last blog. Life has been quite the ultimate whirlwind since May.

I finished my internship.

Jessica Matthews, President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, myself, and Rose Gottemoeller, the Director of the Carnegie Moscow Center.

Finish and defended my master's thesis. Graduated master's school.

My fairy godmother and I at the MGIMO graduation.

Experienced Moscow at its finest.

Moved back home to the United States and took one of the best family vacations ever...

Sunset at one of Cape Cod's many beaches.

...and am now in the process of re-Americanizing and readjusting to the next step in my life...I guess that would be "real" life. (I.e. - getting a job, a place of my own and paying my bills...).

I've got lots of pictures to update my photo album with, and now that I've settled in a bit, will be doing that soon. I'll also be looking for a job (if anybody has any connections in DC, give me a shout!) and learning what a healthy diet means again. More updates and stories from my last two months in Moscow will be on their way!
