Life List 2010: Frederik Meijer Gardens (CHECK!)
I was so productive yesterday that I’ve slacked off already today. I’ve really enjoyed waking up early but today I didn’t even come to consciousness until about 10:30am. Haha. Figures. I will say, however, that yesterday was a great day! This is how it started: I got a phone call from a friend telling me…

Don't Just Because You Can.
There’s something to be said about living with purpose. This spans several topics of conversation and areas of life. Don’t do something just because you can. It isn’t enough. Don’t act to act or speak to speak. Act to achieve and speak to inform. If you don’t have the desire, don’t play the game. If…

Bold Brews. Bold Thoughts.
Last night, I got to share conversation with a dear friend of mine. He’s the friend that I met with months ago who inspired me to move to Grand Rapids first and look for things to fall into place second, the friend who believes that visualizing your goals leads to achieving them. We sat down…

Life List 2010: See a Bald Eagle in Nature (CHECK!)

Past Influences and Parties
Fact: I feel sexiest when driving in my car, windows down, music up, night air, wind in my hair. I drove from Grand Rapids to my parents’ home today. I arrived home just in time to catch my mom and her friends mid-celebration for one of my high school teachers; it was her retirement party. Not only do I…

Time to be Strong.
Timing is everything. Sometimes it’s time to be strong. Time to take what you want to hear and scrutinize it. Break it down. Find out whether or not it means what you want it to. Do you still want it to?

Greater Grand Rapids & Four-Leafed Clovers.
Aside from four small bags and one box, I’m moved in. My room is tidy and I fully intend on keeping it that way. It’s peaceful here and I think utilizing my futon for a bed was a good choice; open spaces are cleansing. I feel like a lot has happened this week, more things…

Condensed Soup.
My day (condensed): Internal clock. Good morning! 8am. Wake the house. Let’s go to breakfast. Sing with me and my classic rock CD. Bank run. Real Food Cafe. Cash only. World Cup. Call from friend. Reunion! MadCap coffee. Grand Rapids list. Introductions. Sunshine. New friends. Parking ticket. Cerise Cherry. Drive east. Dinnertime. Hugs for grandma…
