This week was a little different. I was given a lot of little projects to do which were cool because I thought they were kinda fun. First my supervisor asked if I could color code the status of businesses in our community on a map of all 5 neighborhoods. Each map has little boxes called […]

Today was a bit of an interesting day, to say the least: I talked to the police and exercised some knowledge from our IGR seminar. First, the police. Nothing major happened and I am 100% okay, in case anyone was worried. No, it was a minor security alarm mishap. After my meeting with one of

After seminar on Monday, Jerry and I whent out to the brand new Whole Foods market on Woodward. I don’t know what took me so late in the game to get out there, but it was a locavore’s oasis! Michigan Products were clearly labeled, and so were Organic ones. When I was hovering around the

Thank goodness 4th of July was this week, because I needed the day off. Week five might have been one of my least favorite weeks. I was not feeling too well and my left shoulder was extremely sore. I mostly typed papers for 90% of my office time. Although it was extremely tedious and boring,
This is my second blog post for Week Four, since I’m unfortunately wordy. This one has pictures, though! On Thursday, I also decided to take a longer way into work, at the recommendation of Pastor Kirstin. M-85 (also known as Fort Street) runs from Detroit all the way down into Southgate (in fact, Peace Lutheran

My fourth week has been just as packed and interesting as the last few weeks have been! It’s crazy to me that we’re almost halfway done with the program. I feel like I just got started a week ago; I’m not sure how the time has raced by. Also, this blog post was originally going

I’m starting to feel quite comfortable at Nortown. Not only am I familiar with the office and our close partners now, I feel connected to some of the other people in umbrella non-proft orgs and people we don’t see as often but have had collaborations with. I finally have a clear understanding of everything that
