Corning meets Cleveland

This past weekend I met up with two of my friends who interned with me at Corning last summer-Jason and Jaclyn. I saw Jason in September when I made a trip out to New Jersey and NYC and actually just spent Easter with Jaclyn and two other Corning interns in Boston. Regardless, it was really good to see both of them, especially since they are just graduated and headed off on their own adventures. We packed a lot into the weekend-a nice dinner, comedy club, the Cleveland zoo, shopping, a brew pub, dancing, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame- but it was a lot of fun! We shared some laughs, caught up on our lives, and really just enjoyed each others company! Here are some pictures from the weekend:

Cleveland really is a beautiful city. Jac and I ran to this park Saturday morning and had to go back to take pictures!
A good quote for two girls who want to change the world!

I have been lucky enough to meet so many great people on all of my life's adventures. Last summer in Corning I became friends with people that I hope remain in my life for many years to come. It is a priceless moment with friends, when you are reunited after much time away from each other, and it feels as though you haven't missed a second and with Jac and Jason it was as if we were still in Corning hanging out every single day. From these two friends I have been able to explore more of life on our adventures, to learn more about myself and the world, and have been lucky enough to learn from them to become a better person who is more engaged in the world around me. And when we are all together laughter is never in short supply :-)

I am a lucky girl to have such good friends. Even if they are scattered all over the world.
