San Francisco

It’s been well over two months since my last blog (I know, I know) and in that two months a lot has happened in the life of Jenna. Namely a long-term and rather intense interview process, culminating with a great offer and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

So with that being said, I should let you all know (if you don’t know already) that I’ll be leaving Seattle on the 3oth of January and moving to wonderful San Francisco. I’ve accepted an offer with Apple to be a Program Coordinator for their Campus Rep program, and I couldn’t be happier! It’s exactly what I want to be doing with myself right now, and everything so far has fallen together flawlessly! I received my official offer letter/packet a few days back and below are some photos. You have no idea how exciting it is to get a stark white folder in the mail, where the first page just says “Welcome to Apple.” It’s been a long-time coming, and I can’t wait to get down there and start throwing myself into my work! And I look forward to all of your visits, as well!

Moleskine City Notebooks

Everyone loves a Moleskine and now they’re giving us even more reason to love their products. Moleskine has recently come out with their City Notebooks, and they are legit cool. Each notebook comes with a Key Map that summarizes the layout of the city, as well as up to 36 zone maps for neighborhoods and metro systems, etc. It also comes with 76 blank pages for you to jot down notes, sketch, add tickets stubs– however you choose to document your trip. There’s also a 96 page personal archive that comes with pull tabs you can apply however you’d like to organize your book. Other features include loose sheets of paper and 12 translucent sticky sheets for tracing over maps and creating routes. Basically, this is a super dope way of archiving a trip and creating your own travel guidebook. The idea is that you can use it multiple times, add to it, give it to friends, or just use it as a way of journaling your travel adventures. Cities already in print include; Amsterdam, Berlin, Rome, Madrid, Barcelona, London, Paris, Prague– and many more. They’re adding cities every season, including Seattle in Fall 07, so keep an eye out if you’re planning on doing any traveling. Read more about these city notebooks here. They’ve also started an exhibit called Detour that includes city notebooks created by Architects, Designers, Artists and Writers. It’ll be on exhibit in NYC through the end of this month, so check it. Want to add your travel trips and share your expertise? Take part in the Moleskinecity blog community.
