Famous Last Words: Oh The Places You'll Go

"Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting so... get on your way! Kid, YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS" (Dr. Seuss)

Spring break, y'all. That was a MUCH needed rest. I hope everyone had as wonderful and peaceful and adventurous time as I did. I got to see the Grand Canyon for the first time in my life, and let me tell you, I was NOT disappointed. It was so beautiful and big and wondrous. Everyone should take the time to see this magnificent work of creation at least once in their lives.

I spent most of Spring Break in Phoenix, watching baseball, hiking, and reading books by the pool. I probably should have spent a little time on schoolwork, but alas I didn't even check my email that week. One of the funnest things me and my friends got to do was run in a race dressed as giant sausages at a Milwaukee Brewers spring training game. The Famous Racing Sausages  are a trademark of the Brewers, and it was so fun getting to experience what it's like to be a 10ft chorizo sausage.

Getting back to Oklahoma and realizing all of the work I have was NOT fun. I graduate in seven weeks (yikes!) and I am not at all ready. Yesterday I was feeling VERY overwhelmed with all of my upcoming projects, but a conversation with a girl at work made me remember that there's always a reason to feel stressed, but there's also always a reason to be at peace. I know that I have a lot to do, but I know that I can do it. And if I can't, oh well. That doesn't make me less of a person or less valuable or less purposeful. I'm excited to make every moment count and do everything with excellence.
