A Review: July 2018

In July, the summer continues.

The 4th of July!

The fourth of July is always a fun day! This past year I worked and had a great time! The night before we decorated the pool which was so much fun! The day of we held small events and competitions and even face painting!

That night my family and I saw fireworks which were beautiful, but so were the dark clouds on the horizon. It also rained a bit, so my family and I put a blanket on to cover us all which was funny!

Our amazing face paint work!

Pool Party

Once again I had so much fun working! More pool stories are to come!

Paddle Boarding

During the summer, a friend and I went paddle boarding! Paddle boarding is always so much fun because you get to float on top of the water, see the boats, and jump off into the lake! This particular time as my friend and I were renting out paddle boards the attendants warned us about the e.coli in the water, great, so ultimately we couldn't jump in. It was kind of a bummer, but I still stuck my legs in because it was so cold! We saw some weird animal pop it's head up out of the water. I don't know if I remembered what it was, but it was interesting. We also saw some fishermen. It was a very quiet day on the lake which was fine. We headed back to shore and on the way back I stood and paddled which is kinda scary because you could lose your balance, which could be fun to fall, but I didn't.

My friend and I stopped for lunch and afterwards, as she was driving, a good Samaritan alerted us a tire was deflated, so we pulled over. She put more and more air in it, but to no avail did it work. Eventually, we went to the mechanic and they looked at it while we went shopping. Everything ended up being fine, it got fixed and we went home.

The day was very fun and filled with surprises!

I heart e.coli!

July was filled with much more memories, all incredible!

God Bless!

20 Activities for 20 year Olds

Good Morning Family and Friends! Recently I have been incredibly bored, hopefully my online classes will entertain me more. I have previously stated that I wasn’t practicing social distancing or whatever, however my mom has been making me stay inside more often and now Colorado is on lockdown. I looked up activities for 20 year olds and didn’t find anything, I guess people make these lists for stay at home moms with young children. So, I decided to make my own list for you, the audience, if you’re bored (which if you’re reading this you probably are) and looking for something to do. Read Woah, how original...read. I don’t read for pleasure often. In the summer I read The Great Gatsby and I usually read one of Father Greg Boyle’s books some other time in the year. I also read my Vogue magazines. Two books and a magazine isn’t that much. However, since there is more time to do stuff, I figured I could read more. My brother gave me The Princess Bride to read, I’ve read a lit...

Major Life Advice

Recently during class I was giving an acquaintance/friend advice after being asked "How am I so happy?" and another acquaintance/friend wanted me to begin as she thought this was very important. Today I want to share part of a book (google doc) that I've been writing throughout the years that is full of advice I have received and found. Today is the Best Day of My Life This may sound crazy, but it's true, everyday is the best day of your life because you never know when life will end. I learned this from my dad who even thought it was crazy when he heard it from his friend. This advice has helped me look at the positive in every day things. For example in high school I didn't enjoy waking up around 4 am for swim practice, but when I dad told me this advice, I started thinking about it began enjoying early mornings. How lucky was I to do what I love, be awake before anyone else, talk to my friends, and laugh endlessly before the sun rose? So lucky and as ...

What I've Learned in College: End of Freshman Year Fun part 2

Continued from Part 1 8.Cowboys are Real Cowboys are typically seen as people who used to live in the Wild West years and years ago. I honestly think that my grandfather was one of the last American cowboys. While, I wills till continue to this this, I have learned that cowboys are still real! Every once in a while, I will see an old man sporting leather cowboy boots, a blue pair of Wrangler jeans, a button down shirt, a weathered, leather belt, a leather vest, a cowboy hat, a grown out beard, and skin weathered and tan like the leather. I didn’t think people still dressed like this besides for show! This is someone’s real life outfit! I am always astonished to see people like this because I don’t see them regularly. They look like their straight off a horse in ye old west! Students even wear cowboy boots daily! It’s something else. 9. People still pressure you. I don't drink for multiple reasons, and I was under the impression that people don't pressure people i...
