The Countdown Continues

It turns out that the kind lady that offered me a place to stay, Kristen, owns cats. This creates a problem because I am very allergic to cats. There may be a possibility of getting an apartment or renting a trailer.

I'm suddenly becoming very aware of how expensive this is going to be and that my college fund is being used to support me during this time. I'm concerned about what will happen when the money runs out and I'm not finished with college. The salary of a teacher is not going to pay off loans any time soon.

Registration is 14-18. So I'm planning on leaving right before then. I have all of the supplies I need except for a warm winter coat which has proven to be hard to find in the middle of the summer.

The Calm before the Storm

Hello. I am so happy that you stopped by. For the next two years this blog will be documenting my thoughts and perceptions on the progress of the Standing Rock Reservation. If you have any comments or encouragement please feel free to say something. I would love to hear from you.
