This is just an inspiring video to get me through that last stretch before spring break. I am in this video too!Tee hee. A couple of shots here and there while I went white water kayaking last summer.
Most importantly is the message behind this video.
Live life to the fullest, time is precious and if you want to do something, then go and do that great adventure. Don't not go and do something because you are scared of the unknown. (like move to a brand new city and start teaching...)
Currently listening to: "What's My Age Again" by Blink 182
This week has been so crazy, but wonderful. I turned 23! Last year on my birthday I was in Suzhou,
and so I thought it would be pretty hard to top. Well this year was pretty fantastic! Direct quote from mum: "23 does make you an adult whether you want to be or not." Whoah. Sometimes I think I should grow up and act more mature, and then I think "mhmmm... betta not." (name that movie)
My roommate Sarah made my birthday so special! She woke up freakishly early so I could have donuts from Krispy Kreme for breakfast, and got me the cutest mason jar mugs. And when the roommates and I went out to Red Robin,Sarah told them it was my birthday and so I got free ice cream. She did it all sneaky though so I had no idea until they came out. It was fabulous. I then went to the temple, which was packed full but also fantastic. Then I came home and watched Steel Magnolias, because let's face it: its one of the greatest movies of all time.
I got a birthday package from my momma! It was so nice to get fun mail. These cracked me up, and I also got St Pattie's Day earrings though I hadn't put them on at this point.
I GOT TO SEE DAN + SHAY IN CONCERT FOR MY BIRTHDAY! Seriously, they are just so so fantastic. I love everything country, and they had some fun covers thrown in there. Such a good show, I fully recommend them!
Aren't they beautiful?
The opening act was Canaan Smith. While he isn't super well known, he is one of my favorites to listen to these days. Essssspecially this song.
It was one of those nights where I thought "Yeah. I live in Vegas. It's pretty great."
Signing off for now- I have to go prepare lessons so I can enjoy my Spring Break in Texas with some family! Woot Woot!
My nose is sun-burnt, my knees are aching, and I have a grin on my face. Yes, I had a fantastic weekend. I went hiking at Zion National Park!
Feelin' on top of the world
I am so happy to say that I finally have a May 2nd! For a long time I didn't know what I was doing with my life after student teaching, but now I sort of have one! I will go home for a few weeks, then head back to good ol' Zion to work for the summer! I am so excited, I have barely scratched the surface of this beautiful place!
