The whole BC group on our last day of work.
Me using the circ saw. I'm basically a professional now
My arm is still a little sore from hammering so much :)
Me and the other Elena from Northeastern University putting up a support beam for the roof over the porch
Me with some new friends I made. Coincidentally, we all wore the same shirt one day. The other schools were amazed by how much BC apparel and gear we all had--from hats to sweatpants to water bottles to flip flops. We have a lot of school pride!!! :)
Just handed the keys to their new houses. so happy.
