Happy Sunday, friends!
Peaks and Pits of the Week
Peak: I’m back in my Boulder home, which feels amazing. Don’t get me wrong, I love spending time with my family and traveling to new places. But there’s just something so rejuvenating about sleeping in your own bed and having a bowl of cereal from your own fridge. Do you know what I mean? Getting back into a routine again feels so good.
Pit: Being back in Boulder also means having responsibilities at work and school again. #gradstudentlife
