High Five for Friday

So I'm a day late but here are my highlights from this week...  1. Being left with so much inspiration, motivation and dreams after finishing Paris Letters. Stocked up on my art supplies, made my list of strategies to save money, and "decided to start living the life I imagined," from the words of Wordle Myrtle Leslie. (Check her out. She's awesome. And maybe she'll start writing more if she gets more views and people pestering her. Readyyy GO!)     2. Getting my feet running on the sand again. 3. The ab-working, eyes-tearing laughing session my coworkers and I had last night. We went from talking about our dreams and aspirations to hookers on houseboats (me referring to this Netherlands story ), to me thanking Daniel for improving my odds keeping me off the streets. Daniel... "Improving the odds for kids... And staff."  4. Roomie and my trilingual/Spanglish/Danglish conversations during our afternoon bike ride. Practicing pick up lin

Music Mention: Dawn and Hawkes

          Mentioned in this post , here's the band I fell in love with from the CPH Listening Room. They're really great singer/songwriters from Austin, TX. Their songs are just so real, genuine, and unique! Check em out and buy their songs here!  No one steal this for your wedding. It's mine! ;) Just kidding. But if you do, don't tell me.

St. Patty's Day, Padres, and Traveling Love Bugs

I haven't been writing much lately because there's nothing too out of the ordinary happening lately. I did have an awesome St. Patrick's Day filled with Lindsay Love and Leslie Boo, meeting new friends, a guy with this bike who was unfortunately too drunk to ride it but fortunately sober enough to realize this fact, sneaking Fireball on the streets,  and entertaining live music at the Riverside Street Party.   I've enjoyed some awesome balcony chilling in Leslie's lovely, high-rise apartment, with an unbelievable view, had some super silly, girly dance parties (for the neighbors to luckily see), hot tub hoppin with a cute boy, and front porch chillin. I was also blessed with a quick visit from Amy and her boo the other weekend.   Last weekend, I had a great time with the padres coming to visit. We biked over to lunch at Beachside Seafood for a surprisingly delicious meal. We enjoyed the beautiful weather on the beach, laid out discussing the ridiculousness of

High Five for MONDAY

Forget the case of the Mondays. This Monday was AWESOME.  1. It started off with a memorable visit from Dad. We biked to lunch, cruised around, enjoyed the ocean view from a (closed) rooftop bar, and learned some of dad's tricks on the guitar. Great father-daughter time.  2. I officially started my online TESOL class. Woop woop! 3. Then read on the beach in the perfect weather.  4. And did a yoga class that seriously kicked my butt. 30 days unlimited yoga? Bring it on!  5. Then I was rewarded with some nice recouping time before biking home (necessary to avoid fainting or crashing) outside a cafe in the cool air, and got to skype with that cute boy across the pond... Awesome night to end this lovely day.  Oh and this happened.  Can someone lend me their normal cat for a day or two to teach this goofball some things?  I hope everyone else had a great Monday too!
