*snow

It's amazing how something as simple as a "snow day" can make a twenty-something college student revert back to a kid again.

I spent a good portion of last night wasting away with friends, something I don't do often. The past two years of my undergraduate college career has made me a little jaded, made me hate school just a little bit. I have spent a great majority of my time with my nose in the text books. I have been called a motivational freak, stuck in a motivational bubble. I don't always feel that way, but I certainly try to embody it. I pride myself in my work ethic. I wish that some people found it in them to attempt to do the same, while I envy others for getting by just fine without needing to.

I'm writing this as a reminder to myself that it's okay to let loose once in awhile; in fact, necessary in order to keep sane. I lost my mind a little bit last November because I didn't allow myself the time to breathe. That's not healthy. We need to breathe. I was drowning. I don't think you have to stop and smell the roses, but why not slow down and grab one for yourself to smell as you keep on walking by.

The snow looks beautiful. I will upload some photos.
