San Diego: Part One




Spring Break this year was fabulous! I went to San Diego with some wonderful people and it was just lovely. These are all just from the first day we were there!! We drove down in one day, and got in late Sunday night. Monday morning we got up, and headed down to Seaport Village and the pier! I was in heaven! I fell in love with the ocean this past week and want to spend every waking moment there! After the pier (where we saw the huge statute and also there was this guy with all these birds and I held one on my shoulder, which if you know me is a big deal...I hate birds!) we went to La Jolla Cove and saw the sweet sea lions on the beach! There was the funniest guy who ignored the signs and rope and just let his kids run around next to the sea lions...the one little girl had on a cinderella costume...it was all too comical to me. After that we headed down to La Jolla beach and I stood in the ocean for the very first time! Like I said earlier, I am in love! The only downside was that a seagull stole my lunch on the beach. Sad day. That night we met up with some guys that one of my roommates knows and had dinner with them. They were all such gems! After dinner (fish and chips next to the ocean, you cant beat that!) we explored downtown S.D. and it was so fun! Overall I loved it. Which is probably how the rest of my posts will go because I pretty much just soaked in everything like a sponge. It was pretty dang fantastic.

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

16 Things I Learned In 2016

Here it is. I cant believe that it is already New Year's Eve. This year has gone so fast and so slow. It has been happy and hard and different than I ever imagined it would be. This time last year, I was at my parent's house in Texas. So much has changed since I rung in the new year with little brothers and 60 degree weather, and as I have spent the day with just two cute puppies and my thoughts I have been overwhelmed with all that the last year has given me. So here it is, in no particular order...16 things that I learned in 2016. 16. Travel Often. Across the ocean or just a few hours away, take the time to see new places. It is ALWAYS worth it. 15. It's okay to say no. Sometimes, you can only give how much your heart will allow. You must take care of yourself before you can take care of others. I learned this through my job, but it is a lesson that I have needed to apply to my entire life for a very long time. ...

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday".  Someday when I have more money, or...
