Summer's Hair

Never really was one for good posing hahaha.

Me in my sweats and a sprained wrist last summer.

I'm starting to miss my long hair.

Summer Fun Climb

Just got back from a 2 day mountain climbing trip.

It was my first time and certainly won't be my last!

Grabbed a few pics from my friend, Yssa, since I decided

not to bring a camera. (booo!)

 These pictures won't even begin to describe how torturous

that 5-hour ascent to the camping site was during the first day.

It wasn't even 3 minutes in the climb that I was tempted

to ask if it wasn't too late to back out. haha!

 Played card and naughty "tell the truth" games during the night.

It was a laugh fest to say the least.

 Me in the far left trying to jump up and down

so I could shake the branch and scare the other girls.

haha! I'm mean. I know.

 The 2nd day was more fun and dangerous since we

trekked through the river and got to swim and dive

off cliffs when we got to the waterfalls. 

Heavy rain started to pour on us halfway through

the trek so walking got pretty slow and slippery.

I swear all that climbing on rocks, treading in rough rivers, and walking

 through forest-like trails made me feel like freakin' Katniss Everdeen

in the Hunger Games. It was fuuuuuuun.

And I found that the only thing that calmed me down and got me

through it was by rapping (out loud) the lyrics to Kanye West's song Stronger.

I don't know why that is. But it certainly helped.

So thank you Mr. West. Thank you for being there with me.

 

The muscles on my legs hurt like a mother and I think

I may need a wheelchair. I seriously cannot walk.

Daydream {052412}

“Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to a new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.” 

 

I just had the loveliest day.

Took Constance (my bike) out for a spin.

It was my first time biking around the city.

It was SCARY! But people were actually really nice

and supportive of how I was pushing those pedals

like my life depended on it. Random people in cars literally cheered me on.

It was humiliating..... and funny. My legs are now weak and wobbly.

But I survived! You may now call me Ms. LEGS OF STEEL!!!

After today, I think I deserve the title.

Here's to meeting new people who inspire you to live life to the fullest! :)
