Lovely Lot :)

Hello ladies and gents!
The Lovely Lot. Loveliest of all, Joel in the highlighter jacket.



Lovely lot - a memorable description that my English tour guide used when he referred to the fifty American college students who were following him around like ducks. Joel, a wonderful man.

I spoke to one of my travel companions tonight. It has been a year and one month since we stepped off of a fourteen hour, or more, flight. We were discombobulated and what not in the Heathrow Airport, standing around looking at the strangers that surrounded us. Little did we know that we would create some of the best friendships of our life. 

We returned back home with friends all over the country, and memories that we will never forget. 

As I dream, and sink into a deep depression, about returning one day, I will be sharing some of the best memories from my trip. The memories are flooding back, and I NEED to write them down..

Locks of Love - Pont de Arts, Paris.
Have a lovely Thursday!

Cheers!

I do not know my place in this world, because I have not been everywhere just yet!

Do Unto Others...



Only ignorant people do unto others as they would have others do unto them. The selfish and hypocritical world that we live in today does not care about you.

Okay, okay, that seems a little harsh.
But I mean to challenge that statement. 

I have, some would say a curse, of seeing the better side of people. And when I really care about a person that is the only side I see. You might say this is naive. You might be right. 

But the person who believes that this world we live in is such a horrible place is just as naive as the person who believes no one will ever hurt them. 

So what is right? What is this world really all about?
Each to their own.

But for me, I am cursed, or blessed, with the ability to see the good things in people even if they do not intend to show me. Not all people are naturally mean. I find it easier to be happy. Happiness takes less effort than always doubting, hating, worrying, and depressing.

I'm in Maimi!

Everyday I am thankful for the wonderful and beautiful people that I met on my trip to Europe a little over one year ago. 
A few of my Europe friends live in Miami, so my best friend and I took a 10 hour drive to the tip of Florida for a mini vacation and to reunite with our friends. 










Note: I HATE THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE! $$$

Life's Lessons


Life's lessons are never ending. 
The day that we begin to think that we have even a little tiny part figured out, everything changes. 
So on this day, I realize that I will never know the outcome of any situation, and assuming only, well you know what assuming does. 
Realizing that you were wrong is simply a humbling experience that life gives you to keep you in your place, life is impossible to figure out so stop trying.

Each day is a chance for new beginnings, 
stop worrying,
stop stalling,
stop fearing, 
because today is only going to be here for 24 hours.

I don't have time for that, and neither do you!
Get out there and enjoy these 24 hours that we call July 5, 2013 because shortly it will only exist in memories.

Lunch in Panama City, Florida

Bayou Joe's is the cutest hole in the wall in Panama City.

 This stairway really caught my eye.

This view!

Now I must get back to reality, I have a final due today for Diverse Learners! 

Wish me luck!
