Colorado Film

Film makes me nostalgic for a time I never even lived in.

A tearful end to tutoring

This week was my last as a tutor. Over the past school year I have made lesson plans, relearned math (thanks common core...), spent countless hours on trains to park slope and greenpoint, prayed my students would do well on their exams and came to absolutely adore two amazing girls.  Daily I was reminded to live in the present, fulfill my potential and see the good in myself.

I hope they remember that not only are they smart but that they are capable of more than they know.

That last day coming home, I cried on the G train. Sure a lot of people cry on the G train, but for me those tears were a mix of love, exhaustion, sadness in endings and joy that in over the past 10 months I made new friends, learned a lot and helped two girls see how smart and amazing they are.  I will miss you both dearly but look forward to hearing about your future accomplishments.

love,
Miss Camille

2 Year Anniversary in the HAMPTONS!

The day before our 2 year anniversary Ken told me to have the weekend free. Clueless as to what he had planned I was a little anxious for what was going to happen but really excited. This would be our first anniversary celebration because last year on april 26th we were busy graduating from college! Not a bad way to spend the 1 year mark but definitely not romantic or private as we were surrounded by family and friends all day. Oh- and the fact that we were moving the next day and selling all of our furniture and cars.

This year I craved some quiet down time but I did not expect for Kenneth to show up at the subway station where I transfer from work with bags packed. As we took a bus to the airport I started to doubt my previous guesses. Turns out the airport was just to throw me off as he picked up a rental car to drive us out to the Hamptons.

The following weekend was filled with lighthouses, peaceful drives (you forget how fun those are when you don't have a car), vintage stores and my favorite activity: House Hunting!! Although we are far from buying a home and we are very very far from buying a home in the Hamptons it is always fun to window shop.

My favorite house is this little cottage gem. Kind of like the one Aurora from Sleeping beauty stayed in with the fairy godmothers.
