New Discovery: I don't like blogging! Uh oh!

So I realized this month that I hate blogging!  I promised people I would write more than once a month but have not done so in the previous months and obviously have not done so this month.... however, I do have a challenge this month.  Well I did and I already accomplished it!

I moved out of my parents’ house!  While I love them to death and am so grateful for being able to live there as long as I did, it was time to move out.  For those of you that didn’t know, I turned 28 this month and thought it was due time to get out on my own.

I moved in with my friend, Michelle.  We met in my San Marcos kickball league!  Our third roommate is super nice and I am excited to get to know her and Michelle, more.

While still at my parents’ house, I had bought three frames that I knew I was going to put over my bed.  I never hung them because it was my way of declaring, I was going to be moving out soon.  They are now hanging above my bed and they look better than I could imagine...especially on the gray and white striped wall my dad and brother-in-law painted!
I put my Italy pictures in the frames!

Something else that I had never done in my room at my parents’ was put pictures around the room.  That one was never intentional; I just didn’t have any updated pics.  I made ordering pictures one of the first items on my list for my new room.  I just finished my wall tonight and LOVE it!  I have a few shelves I need to hang up as well and once those are in, my room will be complete!  I can’t wait. 
The loves in my life!

Like I said, I loved living with my parents and I do miss them, probably more than they even know, but I feel like this was the step I needed to make.  I feel like a lot of changes are coming my way and this was the spark that started it all!

Since it was my birthday this month also, I will give a little blurb on that as well.

The night before my actual birthday, my mom and dad took my out to dinner!  On the day of, my students made the day special by singing to me.  After tutoring, : P, my friend Karen treated me to dinner!  Even though she literally had a day to recoup between trips, she came to spend her evening with me! After dinner, I had Growth Group.  This is a new group and I only really know a few of the girls from the semester before.  I knew they were going to do something but it meant a lot when I received cards and got to "blow out" candles.  I say that in quotes because I didn't actually blow them out...unfortunately, I was sick and I didn't want to get everyone else sick.  However, I wouldn't have minded have the cream puff cake all to myself!

Later that weekend, I got to celebrate with sushi.  I was so blessed by everyone who came!  I felt so loved on my birthday which made turning 28 not so bad!


Update on every other challenge:

I have run ONCE since my half...way to go me.  Apparently I need to sign up for another one!

I have not studied Vietnamese but I really do want to start again.



And shocker...I haven’t practiced my photography either but I can’t keep my nice, fancy camera in the corner can I?
