Mondays Are Awesome 006

Well, I think it is suffice to say that this Monday has not been awesome. I just wanted to bang my head against the wall all day. So here's to looking at what might come this week!

1. Short Week!

Thankfully, though this week has started off poorly, it is a short week. On Friday I will get to hang out with my friends and discuss things and dress casually and not lesson plan or teach! It will be such a nice break for me.

2. Spring Break

And its only 2 weeks until spring break! THANK GOODNESS. A full week off! I can hardly wait. I shall sleep and eat and be merry and hang out with friends. Life can be good.

3. Cup of tea

Thankfully this will happen in about 5 minutes. No waiting for this one. Imma get it right now! 

Mondays Are Awesome 002

It's suffice to say that today actually is awesome. It's my reading week, so there is no school and I totally slept in! I have missed sleep. So, here is what I have been loving lately.

1. My classmates

I really loved my class this semester, and my classmates were kind of ridiculous, in a mostly good way. Though I am super stoked to be out teaching, I will miss the social studies camaraderie that we all shared.

2. My Costco blanket

Lately my house has been extra extra chilly and this blanket brings the heat! Literally! Most mornings (most mornings meaning this week) I wander around the house wrapped up in it. It's brown and cozy and I would imagine I sort of look like a potato. 

3. Moroccan Tea (and tea in general)

We even brought out the china to enjoy our Moroccan tea yesterday. Gorgeous, right? Nothing like china tea cups to make your tea drinking even more enjoyable. 

4. My new yellow sweater

I did think about taking a picture and modeling this for you but I just got back from yoga and the rest of my ensemble would be sweatpants and a weird looking ponytail. It deserves a better debut. 

5. stumbleupon

If you have no idea what this website is, go discover. It's wicked awesome and it zaps boredom like THAT. I have found some real gems lately.

However stumbleupon also gives you some straight up weird websites. Earlier today I 'stumbled' upon a website that detailed one person's shower routine...

Happy Monday!

need some tunes for christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
FELIZ NAVIDAD!

I was blessed by some fabulously thoughtful gifts today and some pretty incredible family. I hope you all were too!

But my big dilemma, I got like, 4 iTunes cards and have NO IDEA what to buy! I want to listen to some good tunes...

Other dilemma, how much chocolate is too much before turkey dinner?

And lastly, why do I keep asking for tea? I need to get my hydration on - so many yummy teas to drink.

Lastly, the challenge thing of the day is to include a screen shot but that seems boring... so as I tend to change all the ones that I don't like, here is a picture I took last night at my Grandma's house.

Sorry for the flash of light in the center, iPhone was feeling rebellious.

It's this german word that literally means "egg cracking and perforating device". And with a little bit of coaching, I managed to learn how to pronounce. Quiz me sometime.

rainy days.

good afternoon! I just wanted to exclaim to you all the joys of tea. It's incredible and is packed with healthiness. Hurray! I bought three boxes of tea yesterday and I'm so excited about them. I bought a peach oolong tea, an acai berry mango tea (trying it in approximately 3 minutes!) and some moroccan mint tea :)


Now Imma go get my antioxidant on.
