Once again, I really don't have much to write about so I guess I'll just talk about my week and how it's been. This week was considerably better than last week, school-wise at least. I learned something new: that for the majority of my life I have been spelling tomorrow wrong. Thanks to Ansari and his mastery of the English language I now know that it is NOT spelled tomarrow....even though it sounds that way. I am also at the halfway mark of Lent. I had been doing very well until this week. Sadly, I messed up and ate a donut, which turns out, does have milk in it. Next week will be better though.
This weekend, Anisah has a bunch of friends coming here, and Lynsey has Raj over. We all went together to Belle Isle to watch the sunset. It was so pretty! I love the river, actually I just love water in general. I like the sound it makes and the way it moves over rocks in a river, or when the waves crash onto the shores of the beach. It's hypnotizing.
I remember during my second to last week in Costa Rica I decided to travel solo to see some of the country and ended up staying at this lodge in the rain forest at Corcovado. I only stayed for 2 days but it was amazing! I had met some people the first day, but on the second day I was by myself so I decided to go down to the beach (this is it, on the left). I had the entire thing to myself! You'd think it'd be boring with no one around, but I loved it. I felt like I was reconnecting with myself and with nature. I didn't have to worry about other people and if they were enjoying themselves, or if they wanted to do something else. I could just relax, be myself and enjoy God's creation. I sat for hours, just watching the waves crash onto the shore. It was nice to be able to get away from everything, even if only for a day.
Speaking of traveling, somehow while driving back from Best Buy, Audrey and I ended up on the road to the Richmond Airport. Every time I drive past an airport, it makes me want to go somewhere really bad...reallyyyyy bad. It's been about 9 months since I've gone somewhere, and I'm starting to get itchy feet.
Awww :) I love itt. I really enjoy the water, too. It's so cool that you got to be on that beach by yourself. I completely understand that feeling.
ReplyDeleteI'm so ready to leave, too.
Hahahaha TOMARROW
ReplyDeleteHey, best of luck with the rest of lent, you know its the intentions that count right
I get the same feeling of driving near the airport, its one of my favourite places, we lived right next one in Holland when I was very young so you could see the planes landing and flying away!
Anisah: Girl, we should go somewhere lol. Road trip!!!
ReplyDeleteAnsari: lol, it still makes me laugh!
Thanks :) Yeah, I know. Messing up is ok, sometimes I forget that. What counts is that your heart is in the right place.
I love the airport too! I think what I like most is that feeling that you get, knowing that your about to go somewhere new. I didn't know you lived in Holland!?!? When did you live there?
