Week 2 - Success!

I've been living life like it's already freakin SUMMER and it feels amazing (despite the fact that I'm slacking off in school :X but I made the choice to slack off this quarter so I actually don't feel that bad).

After reflecting on this week, I realized I spent good quality time with people who have helped shape me one way or another throughout college, and people who I know I'll keep in touch with until I'm old and senile and can't remember them anymore. I feel like I made really good use of my time this week! (And right now, making good use of my time means making new memories with people I care about while it's still easy, since we haven't graduated yet.)

Some highlights:
1. Mimosas on the beach
2. RA happy hour
3. I found a new interest in shuffle ball (At the goat! It's so much fun)
4. WS Crew Thursdays
5. Flashing people from a hotel balcony
6. HARDSOFT part 2
7. Making balloon toys/animals - I can make you a giraffe!

There are amazing people in my life right now and I can't complain about anything. Thank you to everyone who smiled and laughed with me this week!

update?

Life has been interesting. Fast. Very fast. Let me make a list of thoughts because I like lists-

1. Please keep Alicia Bailey in your prayers. I'm praying for your recovery EVERY DAY, love. Be strong<3
2. DR.KIM --> made my initial seminar experience a ball of STRESS! But things are looking better now that Jenny and I stood our ground.
3. LSATS? Law school? Who cares, I don't care!
4. My sister got into vet school and is moving back here in JULY<3333
5. ONE WORD: SPOP

The last one definitely needs more explanation! But let me just say for now....I'm so grateful for this experience. I've been having major highs and lows the past couple weeks and this 4 letter word has been pushing me to keep going, and reminding me what I want to put my time and energy into this last quarter/summer. My heart just melted today doing the easter egg hunt with my spfams....watching the connections that are just beginning to form and will continue to grow as the experience moves forward...it's a perspective that makes me feel so humble and blessed.

Ack, time to go, but stay tuned for more!

alicia bailey

i can still hear your voice over the phone, you have such a pretty voice. and your laugh.....we were ALWAYS laughing. i don't think you had an ounce of evil in your heart. you were everyone's friend! and you were one of my best friends. all the crazy memories i have with you that we remember and sometimes don't remember, i will take them with me forever.






every day you wake up in the morning is a blessing. every BREATH you take is a blessing - never forget this. cherish EVERY MOMENT you have with the people in your life right now. i can't stress this enough. we never know when it's our time to go, or when we'll lose a loved one.

alicia, things won't be the same without you. i miss you so much...and i'm praying for the day that we get to laugh together again. love you forever
