I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I love travel, spontaneity, adventure, trying new foods and things, meeting new people, overcoming fears. I'm a Georgia peach who has lived in two foreign countries and traveled (mostly solo) through many others. I love my family and am a loyal friend. I love Jesus Christ and want Him to be glorified by my life. I think it's important to realize that every day, mundane and eventful alike, is one more step in this wonderful, exciting, and very uncertain journey of life. I love the crazy, random things that happen when you least expect them.

the packing avoider

I’m going to be honest - I don’t feel like getting up at 6:30am and going on a trip. It’s true. I can’t deny it. And since I don’t want to go to work, I don’t reall...

Why I haven't been blogging

My laptop charger has ceased to charge so I have very limited access to the internet. I'm supposed to be getting a replacement (evidently my laptop is still under warranty - good to know) but it has y...

Yesterday I fell in love

With Burlington, VT. I had the pleasure of spending a night and most of a day there and discovered that it was a beautiful, charming little town. The weather was perfect (though I was told it's only t...

It's all about perspective

If you think Georgia is bad in the summer, just got to Louisiana. It's absolutely disgusting here. I just went for a little jaunt here in Lafayette. I wanted to go get sushi for lunch so  I looke...

Persistence

I just woke up from a lovely night's sleep. It's my last night in my bed for 3 so I figured I'd enjoy it as long as possible. I have to be at work at 1423 so I should probably get a move on if I want ...

This is what I do

When I can't decide what to do. I had a big day of lying (is that the right word) by the pool planned, but there seems to be thunder going on. I've spent the morning messing around online, going throu...

tomorrow

I'm going to be tired. At least it's only one leg home though. I've been lying here in bed for about 2 hours. Watched tv for part of it but have mostly just been lying here, rolling around, texting, t...

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Man, oh man... I'm having a crazy fun afternoon here in Alexandria, LA. It's a little easier to go to work knowing you only have one short flight and then you can do nothing for the rest of the day, b...

Oh what a beautiful morning...

This morning I woke up in my bed for the third morning in a row and it has been glorious. I had really bizarre dreams, but that seems to be a trend lately. I dreamed that Angela and Shaun were having ...

all kinds of stuff

I am finally home and loving it. I had high hopes for an exciting Saturday night, but my body seems to think otherwise. I am very full after eating my overcooked steak (which they ended up comping and...
