PICTURES PICTURES AND MORE PICTURES

Hola!!! Margarite here again updating the blog. Let me start off by saying that my placement is at Our Saviour's Emergency Shelter where I work as a full time case manager.. who at this point and time has 16 residents that I manage. However, I do not want to spend time on this blog post to talk about my placement and the many aspects of what I do.. But rather an entry that when my LVC year is over and I'm sitting in law school wanting to take a minute away from reading cases I can reflect on some of the fun times that I had during my LVC year! So... Here is goes:

In this picture is the adventure of painting my room.. this was about a good three week process to get both coats of paint on the wall! (well kinda still going on cause I haven't gotten all the tape off the wall)

As Sarah mentioned in a previous entry the squirrels around here are INSANE! This is what they did to my package my aunt sent me... (ironically today I learned that our maintenance man actually kills the squirrels around here

Reuben made a friend that is doing another volunteer organization and they gave us free tickets to the Minnesota Gopher football game.. it was a lot of fun... although it was kind of a bummer because it was a reminder that I am not a college student anymore... I'm an old lady now.. :(

This is Sarah in her renaissance get up!! she gets a new piece each year.. Its pretty cool she's the first person that I've ever met that participated in this even.. and I kinda want to go next year to see what its about.

WE ARE A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY!!!  Sarah, Michelle, Allie and I participated in the neighborhood clean up. Reuben and Lindsay were out of town.. and we got some free shirts!! Who doesn't love a free t-shirt

THE COOLEST THING THUS FAR!!! ZOMBIE PUB CRAWL!!!! Reuben and Lindsay still out of town at this point but the rest of us went to the pub crawl AND broke a world record for the largest zombie gathering! the night ended in quite and adventure... getting shuttles to take up home... deep cleaning of the couch... etc.. lol

Here is Allie and Michelle as Zombies... yes... we were LVC zombies

the first LVC house party gathering for the  October birthdays was at the Imani house and the theme was drag! So of course we had a blast dressing Reuben up in all of our clothes.. He had a piece from us all on!! lol it was great..he was such a good sport about it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!!!! ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!!!!!!!
Sarah b-day dinner with her family!! It was every one's first time experiencing Hot Pot!

 

Also for Sarah's Birthday we visited an apple orchard and had fun in the corn maze!

Well that is about it for this update!! way part my bed time I have a 12 hour shift tomorrow and I just finished a 10 hour one!
