Weekly Recap #29, 2021

camp-rainbow-gold-sibling-camp-childhood-cancer-nonprofit

This week’s recap looks a little different than usual because as I have previously mentioned, I spent the past seven days volunteering for a summer camp very close to my heart: Camp Rainbow Gold. Camp Rainbow Gold (CRG) is a nonprofit serving Idaho’s children with cancer and their families. What started as an oncology camp in the 1980s—a place that made it possible for ill children to participate in the fun activities of a normal summer camp—has expanded to include four camps each year, as well as scholarship programs, support groups, etc. I have volunteered at CRG in the past and was myself a camper for many years at their Sibling Camp.

Weekly Recap #28, 2021

It may be summer, but boy, this was a hectic week! My brother was in town, I went to Walla Walla for a night, and I had to pack/prepare for a week ‘off the grid’—that’s why I’m coming at you today instead of Sunday! I am heading out bright and early this morning to volunteer at a week-long summer camp, where I will not have (nor will I want) WiFi. I can’t wait for the much-needed break, and I’m excited to share more about the experience in next week’s recap! But for now, here are my recent OOTDs. I have a few items in my closet that are much shorter than the pieces I usually wear, and are therefore out of my comfort zone, but I’ve been trying to convince myself that it’s okay to wear short things. I’m young, and I should flaunt it when I can, right? Well, I don’t know. I wore lots of short items this week and am not sure how I feel about them… Continue reading “Weekly Recap #28, 2021”

Happy 4th of July! How cute is this ‘edible arrangement’ I made this morning? I found it on Pinterest years ago and made it for a 4th of July sleepover I hosted in grade school, but I thought it would be fun to make it again this year. I spent the first half of this week tackling my long to-do list and logging lots of hours for my research assistant position, but the second half of the week was jam-packed with fun. My mom finally got back into town, and my grandpa and other brother are visiting! It’s so nice to have the whole gang back together after nearly a year of not seeing my big bro. Now—onto the outfits! I noticed that I wore a lot of turquoise and orange this week, the slightly less popular alternative to the quintessential blue and red that’s so popular this weekend.
