I use this space for discovering and honing my passion for writing and sharing the best moments of my life. I'm a sister, a best friend, a roommate, a girlfriend, a writer. I'm a dreamer, a chocolate eater, a runner, a giver, a shopper. A reader and a hopeless romantic. I write when I can, I sleep when I can and love purple. Come share in my special moments and new adventures as life and love unfold for this twenty-something optimist.

Back in USSR

After a rough night of sleep stressing over Spanish, I have a long day ahead. But my presentation and surprise quiz went well. And to help my mood, I wore my bright blue "Hound of the Baskervilles" t-shirt (as it is t-shirt weather!) and my bright yellow sneakers. Hard not to smile in these colors.

Now I'm sitting at Mill Mountain sipping on fresh Colombian coffee with The Beatles playing over the speakers. I just started my article on the baseball team and I think, "This day couldn't be better." The chocolate chip scone doesn't hurt things either.

This week sure is a hectic one with several papers, a presentation (done!) and many other responsibilities but I really like it when I can sit down and think about not only what I have already accomplished and plan still to do but that *most* of these things are really things I actually enjoy.  That's how I know I'm at the right school in the right major. Of course, when I do my writing after graduation, I can't imagine I'll be lucky enough to enjoy real coffee and my favorite band while I do it. But that'll come....

Well back to work, if I can even call it that :)

  3. You can enjoy those things in the real world too, Mags. I enjoyed a fresh cup of coffee this morning while listening to ... Veggie Tales. ;)
