Happy Sunday!
This week has been really exciting for me. From trying new restaurants downtown to exploring the city that I’ll be living in starting next month, I haven’t had too much time to just sit back and relax. On a good note, my lack of internet access over the last few days has forced me to sit down and read more, including a book on Paul Durand-Ruel that my dad got for me after attending an exhibition in honor of the Impressionist art collector while he was in London (thanks dad!).
Post-grad life hasn’t been too much of a struggle so far. Mostly because I’ve just been catching up on TV and hanging out with my family, but next week I actually have “real person” plans to go apartment hunting and then I start working in early July. But for now I’m living in my little bubble on the couch happily watching Investigation Discovery and going out for runs every once in a while.
Another week has already gone by! I had a few papers and an exam this week but I survived many a late night in the library and am happy to be on the other side. And, as you’ll see, most of my “happy” moments from this week revolve around food which shouldn’t be too surprised… Anyways I hope that everyone has had an amazing Easter weekend and even if you don’t celebrate Easter, I hope that you enjoyed the long weekend.
It’s crazy to think that at this time just last week I was lounging by the pool in Cancun with a piña colada in my hand. Although going to classes can’t really compare, it’s been nice to be back on campus with all of my friends and back to my normal routine. And since spring has officially begun I’m excited for the temperatures to start warming up and for the trees to grow back their leaves. Fingers crossed it happens sooner rather than later!
I totally forgot to post one of these last weeks, what with Christmas celebrations and getting ready for my trip to South Florida, the week came and went. But I’m back in full force this week and I’m happy to announce that the first week of 2015 has been filled with laughs and sunshine for me! I only got to spend three and a half days in Florida but I’m so glad that I had the opportunity to visit my childhood stomping grounds and we made sure to keep busy while down there.
Can y’all believe that there’s only four more days until Christmas?! I’ve gotten all of my shopping done and now all I have to do is wrap and put the gifts under the tree. It hasn’t been cold enough down here but it snowed yesterday in Winston-Salem, so I can only imagine what the rest of winter has in store for us when school starts again!
