february 5, 6, and 7

it hasn't really been that busy the past couple days, it has actually been quite the opposite, but I have been trying to enjoy my time off by being present with where I am, who I am with, and what I am doing. it has been a pretty great few days!

1. sleeping in on Sunday finally was very much needed
2. getting my paper finished and all typed up Sunday afternoon about a Toby Keith song, which made it all that much more fun
3. getting to just relax in the room and work on homework with Katie
4. taking a spontaneous trip home with Joshua and Jarv to watch the super bowl with our families
5. tacos for dinner, literally my favorite meal ever, i LOVE tacos
6. gettin to hang out with joules, mom, and dad for the night
7. the Valentines being so funny, i just love to listen to their hilarious stories and how they all need to add in something to the story even Jacob
8. singing loud to KLove on the trip back home

1. doing a seemingly easy workout on Monday [which i have now found out was not so easy by my sore legs and butt!] but sore is good and i know i was working my leg muscles with those free weights!
2. turning in my paper, taking an exam, and being done with all my stuff on Monday so I can enjoy the rest of the week
3. getting to talk on the phone for awhile with Sarah! i always know she is doing great because she loves Tufts and everything she is involved with there, but like she said there is nothing better than those catch up phone calls, it definitely made my day that much better!
4. finishing my chem homework and essay before I got to take a two hour nap before dinner, very accomplished!
5. picking up my new angel, Celeste, and another new girl, Erin, from their dorms and seeing how excited they were to eat at the house for the first time and attend their first chapter. it reminds me of my freshman year and everything that goes along with that!
6. watching the Bachelor with girls in the house, it always seems to be new girls who come down each Monday and I love just hanging out and laughing at all the weirdness that happens and getting so excited for what is to come for next week's episode

1. setting my alarm clock back twenty minutes because I realized I had time to shower later in the day
2. reading smoons blog and learning about LTFs [look forward to]
3. good conversation with people at lunch, just easy fun stuff but I love the little conversations that can make you feel so much closer with people
4. walking to the den with Josh before my class :)
5. leadership class always puts me in a good mood, i am learning so much about myself and other peoples leadership styles and its still so great to just be around BGR people, they keep me positive and excited
6. finished my Elmer patchwork animal and it looks so good! can't wait to give it to who i made it for ;)
7. yummy dinner eating at mom's table with all my friends, its fun to think about how we used to meet in earhart at dinner freshman year and now we are all juniors eating together at the house, time flies!
8. Meg Ryan is just so precious, and positive, she made my night!
9. feeling really good about my gamma chi interview, no matter what the result I feel confident with my answers and how I did, and it was fun to just talk about PNMs and about BGR and camp, all in one interview!
10. posting about these past few days has definitely just put me in a better mood :)
