a longer update

I havent really talked about my new job or school...

I started a new job a couple weeks ago with Buffalo Energy (www.buffalo-energy.com)
and it has been super great. I have gone on a couple audits in some neat buildings and learned a lot about building science and efficiency that i didnt know before!
On Friday I got to go into the new converted lafeyette school that is now some super fancy apartments. How neat! It would be fun to live there. AND because they did a comprehensive energy audit, the tenants gas and electric bills only total 100 bucks a month! CHEAP!

So work is awesome.

School is stressful... I am taking 6 classes. I am pretty sure I have had homework in each class so far which is down right crazy. Its going to be one crazy semester. BUT then I will graduate with my B.S. of Urban Planning and Regional Analysis!

I am also applying to go to Malaysia for the summer with school. I am excited because I will be working on a historical preservation project with the University of Malaysia. How cool!

Other updates include: I am working on my three presentations for NESEA in March. I want those done so I don't have to stress about them later. I am also working on the student design competition for fundraising... which has been fun. JOe is awesome. Lynne is doing well. My friends are amazing and I love everyone/everything in my life right now.

Love,
Bernice

Of course the night started at our place drinking wine and cheap beer...

We also went to an amazing vegan chili cookoff yesterday at sugar
city! Pat found Tom van deusens old zine and I took a picture and
posted it on toms Facebook. I bet Tom loved it because he moved to
Seattle and misses buffalo and his buffalo buds so much!

We then went to north bar. What an amazing place! Their food is super
tasty and we controlled the music all night.

Blog readers!

Hey everyone! Lynne ( sister) just showed me how I can track and see
readership stats. How cool!
Looks like I get a lot of hits from google searches. Even someone from
malaysia read it! Neat!

Anyhow, love that you're reading about my life! I plan on doing this
for ten years, everyday.

Love,

Bernice
