Spring Break

Greetings!

It's been so long since I've blogged! I thought I'd do a quick update before returning to mid-term studies :(

Busy, busy few weeks. Andrew and I went to Arizona for Spring Break and had a wonderful time with his family. We were feeling a bit spontaneous so we rented a car and drove to Vegas! Took about 4-4.5 hours to get there with gorgeous scenery the entire way. I was lucky to have great company....and honestly so is he! ;) HOWEVER, the BEST part of the trip, undoubtedly, was hanging with my buddies Katie & Tyler. TJ is interning with the UCLA football team until July-ish so it was awesome spending time with him and hearing about his exciting experience. I'm really looking forward to our friend's wedding this summer so we can all be together again!

Back home means back to work at Thomson! Not much to update here--work is work and I'm happy I have a job. Nothing to complain about!

Although working 20 hours a week and going to school full-time is anything but relaxing, I wouldn't change it for anything at this point. I'm determined to be successful in law school and in my professional life. Learning to balance my professional life with my personal life is a struggle, but I'm very lucky to have the BEST family, a funny/awesome/loving/caring/supportive boyfriend, and the most fantastic, wonderful, talented friends I could ever ask for! Life is very good right now. I'm not worrying about things I can't control anymore. As a very wise college coach once told me: "Control the controllables." That's my plan!

Special shout out this week to one of my closest friends and relative, Allison Micheletti: I'm so proud of you!
--Big few months coming up for this girl and she needs all the support she can get. If you have time, go to Facebook and 'like' "Allison Micheletti Golf". Help her get sponsored! :) :)

Things I'm REALLY excited about:

1) Babysitting baby dubs tomorrow night
2) Whenever Kapps decides he's finally taking me to Hunger Games :)
3) FINISHING the 3rd Hunger Games book
4) My favorite activity on my birthday.........bowling!
5) FINALS TO BE OVER
6) Hawaiian Ryan's return, whenever that might be :) --side note: Pray a little extra tonight for Ryan's G-Pa, please!
7) Cabin time
8) Grass in my front yard

Okay, back to studying! (I'm determined to blog tomorrow night with my niece, hopefully!)
