It is the middle of week 5 and the first week back in person! The past week and half have been full of stressful times, but meeting up for LCS has consistently been the highlight of my week. Some of my classmates presented their Oral History Projects last week, and to say that my heart was full of warmth and love by the end of the class is an understatement. I was so touched by the stories of each individual. I loved learning about everyone’s EP, and can’t wait until next week to hear more stories. The Oral History Project allowed me to view life in a different light. Everyone has their own unique stories that make up parts of their lives. Although we may not think about our life events on a daily basis, the project helped me to realize that reflection is quite important for understanding your own life course. For our first in person get-together, we visited the Gary and Mary West Senior Wellness Center! I was extremely impressed with the many activities that were offered at the wellness center. My favorite part was getting to have some conversations with the seniors. Although some conversations were short, I found it fun getting to meet some of the seniors and hearing them tell stories. The visit made me excited for the event we are hosting next week! I can’t wait to see all the seniors do all the activities we have planned. It is nice to finally be able to work with everyone in person, and I am super excited for the rest of the quarter.
