Day 6!

 Day 6, Monday May 16th  

Today was a long fun-filled day. We began our day at a small mountain in concord called oak hill where we took a trail named “bowl trail” 1.5 miles to the top. The view was pretty and it didn’t take too long as we were expecting to get rained out in the afternoon. Once we got to proctor, we met with our advisor, pete, to go over our application for the Scott pond prize. He helped us to finish it up and make any last minute edits to our answers. It was relieving to finish it and fingers crossed that we win it! I decided to go for a run on the rail trail and around the Proctor woodlands ending by taking a dip in Blackwater. The ski was looking very inviting so I also decided to take a trip to the top! It was nice to have a moment to reflect while looking over the proctor campus.

    I love doing that too - a run, a swim, a quiet moment. Yes, fingers crossed!

Sunday reflection!

The first week of senior project had its challenges as well as its successes. In the first few hours of our first day we felt a huge surge of freedom that we needed to learn how to manage after being on a tight schedule for the past 4 years at Proctor. Although ecstatic to begin planning our trip and start adventuring, we were still at a loss for where to start. A huge reason that Meg and I decided to do this project was to gain independence and learn how to do something that would help us in real life so Annie helped us to settle into our project after those first few hours. Her experience with planning this sort of trip is very beneficial for us.  Our first hike was to the cabin where we got the first glimpse of what we would be doing for the next 2.5 weeks. It was amazing to get outside on a nice day and explore the woodlands behind Proctor. We biked to school one day and the distance that I drive each day really set in and I can appreciate the ability I have to drive to Proctor...

sunday reflection! #2

Week number two of senior project in the books and it has been a great way to close out my time at Proctor. It allows for more freedom while doing things I really enjoy. Meg and I indulged in a variety of activities this week that brought us outside and occasionally outside our comfort zones. For example, we golfed 9 extremely humbling holes this week. I went over the details in a past blog but let it be known that it was not my most athletic look! We also went for a couple more hikes and were able to go with friends which is nice when sometimes you need a third opinion on which trail leads where. This whole experience has benefited me in more ways than one and it has prepared me and Meg for our post graduation journey into reality. We have learned the value of sticking to a bit of a schedule when we have a lot of time on our hands but also being able to be ok with switching it around to fit our priorities the best. On our adventure to balanced rock after we went about a mile of track,...
