WEEK NINE: SNOW DAYS, SURPRISES AND SLEEPING BABIES

Dear Reader,

What do I say week after week? Focus on the good. Always. Focus. On. The good. And this week, I’ve got to say, some pretty good things happened.

Starting with Thursday: I had an amazing dinner at Boulangerie

received this snap from my friend at UC who decided to look up my house on Google Maps, which I thought was hilariously random, but also weirdly heartwarming

got a text that made my day

and discovered a dress that ruined it

I still don’t see it.

I also took my bed apart because I wanted to switched up the room and realized I had made a HUGE MISTAKE. But, luckily, I had some good friends who helped me put it back together when I realized I couldn’t do it alone.

Life is full of crazy metaphors when you want to find them.

Then on Friday I FINALLY got to meet my niece!

And I went home for Sarah’s dance competition, which I had to wake up for at 5:30 in the morning.

But yay for roadtrips and pretty sunrises and sister bonding.

Sarah also killed it with her dance team, if anyone was wondering.

We also got Mr. Freeze, a local ice cream shop that indicates the nearing of summer!!!

And I went to the talent show with Kennedy and we saw the DUFF with Sarah afterwards (sidenote: would recommend)

Oh and more snow! WHICH I STILL LOVE AND I DON’T CARE IF YOU DISAGREE.

On Sunday I was welcomed to this notification

which meant the start of big/little week,

full of serenades

and embarrassing facebook pictures

As if this week couldn’t get any better, I had THE BEST day with Kassara and Desii at Pfeffer park.

I had to make a video for my Intro to Video Production class (which I might just post on here later) so we went sledding, played in the park, blew snow around, and found a pretty cool ice cave/fort/thing.

Prime selfie lighting, by the way.

In other news of this week: I got this bomb smoothie because they made too much and filled it ALL THE WAY to the top (rare for King Cafe)

IMG_0649

and I cried my eyes out watched S3E14 of Scrubs and the most heartbreaking scene of Big Hero 6 again. No picture, but sometimes you just need a good tug at your heart strings, you know?

So that was my week–all the good minus the bad and the ugly.

It’s amazing how helpful an optimistic perspective can be. 🙂

Sincerely,

Sammy
