Happy June! : My Train of Thoughts

It's finally June! I can't believe it and the first week of June is winding down. I have been enjoying my time in PA by attending my cousin's softball games and catching up with friends. I have been waiting to hear about an internship and have not decided what my back-up plan is. I have been trying to think different and learn how to relax and really start to enjoy my life!!! I have been enjoying the deep conversations and life lessons that I learn from my friends daily. It is still kind of weird when I hear about a lot people I grew up that are engaged or buying houses. I am in such a different place than some people. Don't get me wrong, I am happy for everyone but I am just not ready for any of that. I want to travel and see the world and have a career and then think about a partner or buying a house. I think I just have a different outlook and plan for my life and that is totally fine!

In other news...My newest idea and daily reminder is to Celebrate the small successes. I have been reminding myself how blessed I am by having obtained a college degree, having a place to crash (thanks Mom!) and how many amazing people I have in my life that are so supportive! I really need to remember that life is so short and I want to be happy. I think that the small things make my life pretty sweet and enjoyable. I really want to continue to do this daily.

This week has been busy. I have had my time on the couch full of relaxing and watching some reality shows. I have also been hanging out with a lot of different friends and just trying to help my Mom around the house. I haven't lived home this long in quite some time. I usually only come home one a year, but I like living home. My Mom is great and I missed her while I was at school. I did find out that I still have a habit of calling or texting my Mom and telling her where I am. I forget that I'm an adult and that I do not need to let her know where I am at all times. I have just gotten used to it that I like to keep her in the loop.

Weekend Plans??? I'm super excited for the weekend because I am going CAMPING! I hope the weather is warmer than it was today because I wore old winter boots out tonight! I haven't been camping since my freshman year of college. I loved it because it was such a refreshing and energizing experience. I was able to get away from TV and all of that and had time to reflect on my life and relax. I hope that this weekend gives me the same type of experience! I will definitely blog about my weekend when I get back.

Before I head out of town on Friday I am hoping that I will catch up with an old high school friend. I love seeing how our lives have evolved over the past 4 months and the past few years. It's so interesting!


I haven't played my guitar which I think I will be naming Declan from the movie "Leap Year," which was brilliant, but that is up for debate :) I need to get into a routine now. I want to talk to a guitar teacher and ask him or her where do I even begin. I'm super excited for my guitar adventure and can't wait until I can play others' songs and write and play my own!


As I continue to grow and learn during this transition period of my life, I am laughing, crying, and reminding myself how blessed I have been and am! I love my life and want to live it to the fullest. Thanks to everyone who has touched my life and vice versa.
