life’s not a paragraph

so far my spring break has been awesome. halfway through and i have absolutely no complaints.

i got back to boston from visiting home on monday evening. being home was nice. my sister has the same break as me, so we were just able to be together as a family. per usual, i bought too much stuff (but for the record, most of it was necessities like shampoo and mascara!). but it was really nice to just hang out, go to bed early and not really have anything to do in the morning. i am so thankful that it’s been so nice out. on monday, my sister and i were able to go for a run on the rail trail, a paved path through the woods that used to be a railroad. it was gorgeous out, so we were looking for any excuse to be outside.

i didn’t spend much time in boston when i got back because yesterday afternoon a bunch of my friends and i went down to foxwoods for the night. one of our friends nikole got an amazing deal, so we were able to go down there for really cheap and celebrate spring break and my roommate hope’s birthday! it was so much fun! i’d never been to a casino and, come to find out, i am awful at gambling so i probably won’t be back any time soon, but i had an awesome time roaming the place with my friends. there are actually a few dance clubs in the place (who knew? they had bowling too…?) and so hope and i got to dance for awhile, which is one of my favorite things. overall, it was pretty darn perfect.

… and now, as a complete shock to me, i am going to miami tomorrow morning! wooo! just a few days ago– literally, it was sunday– my boyfriend christian’s mom offered to use her points to get us tickets down there!! it’s so generous of her!! i am very excited!! i have never been to miami before so i am pumped for some sun, some beach and tons of cuban food. haha we are staying with some of christian’s friends who live down there so they will tell us where are the great places to go are and they will show us around! gah! i am so excited! don’t worry– i’ll post some photos when i get back! 🙂
