Today, and the rest of this week is my spring break.
Unfortunately, I did not realize this was happening until last week, so I failed to make any extraordinary plans. However, just the beauty of a week free from school,and mainly free of studying and other school related responsibilities is just so, so, so very nice. A lot of build up for a mediocre word, but really the freedom is just so nice. I still have work of course, but I don't have to bring any of that home with me.
I am just longing to spend time, real time, quality time with friends, I want to read, read, and oh yeah, read some more. I want to watch some movies I have been wanting to see for awhile, and I want to finally get that pedicure...and maybe a haircut, and maybe some extra sleep (oh i feel so greedy). I want to take long walks with no time limit. How life seems so romantic when not under pressure with deadlines. I love my education, I do. I love what I am pursuing. But for now, the freedom is nice.
And I am so, so, thankful for all of it :)
So for some fun stuff...
Music for Monday:
And let's watch this Movie and finish this Book, and really hoping it doesn't rain again, so a late afternoon walk is possible.
Oh, I am feeling so selfish, but the freedom it's just so nice :)

We're alike. I love cats, Starbucks, Sylvia Plath and Emily Dickinson. I'll be back. Take care.
