Happy Friday, everyone! In my current unemployed existence, Friday doesn’t really mean anything to me, but I’m still happy it’s the weekend!Review of May Goals 1. Volunteer 20 hours I kind of did this, but not really. What I have been doing is more along the lines of watching, and less actual doing. Hopefully, over […]
#MDW [in pictures]
Hi! It’s been a long and exciting weekend that has both flown by and gone by slowly! I guess that’s because I spent a lot of time with friends, my family, grilling, hanging out, having fun, and soaking up the beautiful weather over Memorial Day Weekend– all things to help acknowledge the freedom that we […]
Washington D.C., Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum and Holocaust Museum
Hi, friends! We got home a lot later tonight than we had anticipated, so I’m going to make this snappy and hit the hay. Today was yet another bright and early day, starting with a (very) quick workout. The cardio machines were being used, so I completed one minute of various cardiovascular exercises for 6 […]
Washington D.C., National Museum of Crime and Punishment
Hola! Today has been such a long day, filled with lots of sight-seeing, some good food, and a ton of learning about crime and punishment in the United States over the centuries! I woke up bright and early to start the day with a quick workout in the hotel’s gym. I completed 10 minutes on […]
My First Day of Freedom!
Good Evening! Summer has officially been in full swing for over 24 hours and those 24 hours have been incredible. When I woke up this morning and realized that I was in my bed at home, I literally breathed out a sigh of relief that I had nowhere to be, nothing to study for and no work […]
Happy Mother’s Day Mom
Dear Mom, Since I am completely swamped in work for finals week, I wanted to take a moment a recognize you and how much you mean to me! Of course, I wish I could come home and spend the day with you, but Mother’s Day is inconveniently the weekend before finals week. I want to […]
Broad Street Run!
Today is the day that I have been looking forward to for months! A few months back, I caught the running bug and decided that 5K runs were no longer going to cut it and that I wanted to try some longer distances, so Russ and I registered for the Broad Street Ten Mile Run, did […]
April Goals Reviewed and May Goals
Hi Everyone! Time goes by faster and faster, and once again I’m looking at the calendar and wondering where the month went! Wasn’t it just March? Wasn’t it just my mom’s birthday? Didn’t the semester just start? I guess I’m just having so much fun that time is flying! 😉 April Goals 1. Drink at […]
Philly Run Wild 5K
After running cross country in high school, I have continued to run because I enjoy it and while I am now looking to take part in some longer distance races (Broad Street Run next Sunday!), I still love participating in 5K races, especially when they’re to raise money for a good cause, and even more […]
Tummy Troubles; Week One!
It has been a little under a week since I began a low FODMAPs diet, so I thought I would do a quick review of how I have been feeling, and even more importantly, what I’ve been eating! I started on Monday morning, and it didn’t take me long to realize that I literally have […]
