Happy New Year from the North Pole!


Well I have finally settled into my apartment and I am ready to begin the new year in a new place!! My new year's resolutions for this year are: Worry less. Live more. Be happy. 2016 was filled with new adventures and major changes. I started 2017 by leaving home and starting college. I was so sad to leave but being here now has helped me realize my pure excitement to be here. I have lived in such a small corner of the universe my whole life and it was the hardest thing I have ever looked forward to doing. I really want to take advantage of this amazing opportunity that has been placed before me and give it my all. So far this place has been beautiful but it sure has been cold. Like 4 degrees outside when I woke up this morning cold. Being from the Oregon "wetlands" I am not used to this icy weather but boy I sure love the beauty of it. I hope everyone had the happiest of holidays. No matter where this year takes you, look at it as opportunity to seek adventure, learn more about yourself and grow as a person.  Not everything in life has to be perfect for you to be happy. Perfect is overrated. I wish you all a very happy 2017! Catch ya next week for another dose of Vitamin "C"!

When life gives you (sour) lemons...

This week started out very difficult. My dad was having health problems, my work days felt longer than ever before and on top of that I locked my keys in my car....and it was only Tuesday! Since then I have been determined to turn it all around. Yesterday morning I got up and I said I am going to have a great day. I really did. This week I really learned what Hannah Montana meant when she said "Life's what you make it, so let's make it rock" The last few days held little victories for myself and others who I surrounded me. I got most of my college stuff figured out, all of my housing plans have been finalized and one of my students finally got off the bus by herself today! The sweet moments in my life have balanced out the sour ones and have put a better taste in my mouth as the week comes to a close. Make sure you always have sugar and water on hand because when life gives you some of it's sour lemons, through time, patience and a little hard work, your lemona...
