Snow Days and Lazy Days

It's a snow day today in North Carolina. I woke up this morning to a bright white ground and decided that I would have a vacation in my bed for the whole day. Productivity? Not so much. Watching movies, reading, and catching up on my general mental health well-being? Yes. Part of me missed living on campus because all of my lovely friends had a fun snowball fight on the soccer field, but it was nice hanging out with my roommate and hanging out with my boyfriend...pillow for the day.

I'm beginning to really love twenty-ten. I've been hanging out with people who were once quasi-friends and acquaintances and I have to say, getting to know them more and hang out with them more has been incredibly rewarding. For example:

This is Sheryl. I've known her since I was a freshman and she was a sophomore. We've done theatre together and hung out in major groups, but I had never really sat down and had a conversation with her. But lately I've been hanging out with her more, and she just amazes me. She is one of the strongest, smartest, and most inspirational people I know, right down to her funky tops and quick-as-a-whip hilarity. We've been bonding over our love for TOMS shoes, coffee, and our killer dance moves. She's amazing because she's so grounded and so determined to do great things through humanitarian work and go to places that aren't as fortunate as we are. Sheryl's one of those people who surprises you every day and makes you pretty grateful to know that you're friends. Hopefully we'll be having more coffee dates in the near future.

I hope everyone had a great snow day. Stay warm, y'all!
