New Beginings

The past few months have been quite eventful, as I made the move out of Philadelphia and began my southbound road trip throughout late July and August, finally making my way to Florida. I've been in grad school for just about three weeks now! I keep telling myself that I am going to keep up more regularly with blog posts now that I'm settled, but for now, I'll leave a few snapshots of my journey out of Philadelphia down to Florida!

As of lately...

I think I am really going to get back to writing more regularly soon, but as for now...

Eating-- Vegetarian Chili from the Healthy Grocery Girl Nutrition Plan. This is not the exact recipe, but it is a twist on the original. Even though it is crazy hot, this was super easy to make and made a TON of food!

Listening-- Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness (Previously of Jack's Mannequin and Something Corporate). Jack's Mannequin is one of my all time favorite bands and their song "Swim" is pretty much my anthem.

Drinking-- Water, water and more water. Have I mentioned it is hot here?

Thinking-- About cyberbullying and how it doesn't necessarily get better once you become an adult (more to come on that later)

Wasting-- time watching "Royal Pains" on Netflix #obsessed

Dreaming-- Weird dreams that somehow take place at the Louvre and Disney World at the same time #lifegoals #wanderlust #happiestplaceonearth

Eyeing-- Tory Burch Riding Boots from Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Laughing-- At my coworkers and their ridiculous stories. They keep me sane :D

Reading-- Grace for the Good Girl by Emily P. Freeman. I just started it so I haven't formulated an opinion/review of the book. The topic, though, hits right on point.

Wishing-- I had air conditioning or a tropical beach. But at least it isn't winter....

As of lately

This spring has flown by.

I think the combination of being happy that it is no longer winter (#praiseHim), being so busy at work and traveling so much has made this time go fast. It has been incredibly full and here is a little round-up:

Easter trip to California to visit my best friend and her husband! Spent the day in Santa Monica

We surprised one of my co-workers and  took her to sky zone for her birthday!

My college friend is leaving the area to start PA school, so we went to Painting with a Twist to celebrate!

My brother graduated college in Boston over Mothwr's Day weekend. Naturally, a photo shoot ensued.

Gurlz weekend celebrating a wedding in NC.

Being a super tourist

Happy Easter from Beverly Hills

Quick weekend trip to NYC with the parents to see a few shows and visit the WTC memorial 

Hiking in the NC mountains for Memorial Day weekend!

Work is winding down a bit and my extensive travels will be calming for a bit over the summer, so hopefully blogging will get back on my radar!
