Spring,please!
Can someone cut me a slice of spontaneity, place it on a platter of uncertainty and serve it to me warm, please? For the love of canned spam, I have had enough of organizers, worksheets, and downloadable checklists. I am officially boycotting all things structured this week. (except for class because I seriously need to graduate!) No more weekly budget worksheets and Susie Orman rhetoric, you bet I’m saying no to cover letter editing for the night, and yes, I’m definitely giving the caterer a call back tomorrow! Spring break “anti concern” syndrome is in full effect!
‘Twas another great weekend with my marcus that came and went too fast. You can never have enough of those impromptu weekend rendezvous, something our schedules don’t usually permit.

Now, it’s back to studying for midterms, and writing papers.
Sixty-nine degrees today and the only thing to capture my attention for longer than ten minutes is spring. Yes, my latest craze is the weather. I heard a guy yell out today, “It is waaarrrmmmm, and I am haaaapppyyyyy!” Yes, I too know the feeling. I just can’t wait to say it every day. Who doesn’t love the spring time? I find it hard to pass up the warm sun, barefoot walks through mossy grass, that cool breeze that sweeps through a cracked window, and of course, time for some amateur gardening.
Flowers + free time = my new passion. I’m realizing more and more each day that you don’t have to go out and buy a Prius just to become environmentally conscious, you can start by installing an extra surge protector or two, purchase organic or locally produced food, switch to fluorescent light bulbs and maybe, lay off the accelerator.
So what is it about spring that I am most looking forward to? Hmm, let’s see, maybe its finally learning to ride that bike I should have done when I was [I don’t know] six, testing out a new recipe, or not running from building to building afraid to speak to people in fear of my tongue falling off from arctic frost. Spring also means one step closer to 05.17.08 :)
