For the past three years, Northwestern Michigan College’s computer information technology department has hosted an event called the IT Academy Olympics. High school students attending career tech programs come to NMC for the all day event. They are assigned teams and rotate through various challenges, with the highest scoring teams taking home some fun (and usually geeky) prizes.
I’ve been their photographer for the past two years, and even though I’m on my feet all day, it’s a lot of fun and time just flies by. I do wish I had a more recent camera (still using a Canon Rebel t3i), just so my indoor ISO wouldn’t be so grainy, but that’s something to worry about in the future. Here are some of my favorite images from this year’s event.

It Takes Two by Jenny Holiday
My Rating: 
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 26, 2018
Formats: eBook ($6), Paperback ($6)
I didn’t read the first book in the Bridesmaids Behaving Badly series, and don’t think I missed much by not doing so. Though there’s a progression to this group of friends finding their true loves, the prior couple was in the current book enough to not make me feel left out of the story. It can be read as a standalone, but I’m guessing it’ll be stronger as a whole series.
Wendy Liu and Noah Denning have known each other for a very long time, as Noah is her best friend’s older brother. At some point, their feelings evolved but neither admitted it to the other. An “incident” occurred during their teenage years that caused Wendy to reject the notion of a committed relationship and hold onto years and years worth of a grudge toward Noah.
Now her best friend is getting married, and Wendy and Noah are thrust together as the wedding draws near. The two have obvious chemistry, but Wendy continues to hold onto a grudge that Noah doesn’t even realize exists.
