volume down

so i've figured out the volume on my music in the morning usually correlates to how excited i am to go to work. loud volume = don't want to go or i'm on my way home (i just want to be home). quiet volume = i feel like i can handle it and i want to talk to all the bus drivers, etc.

today was surprisingly a low volume day.

i'm really not sure why.
maybe because it's jean friday?
maybe because the sun's out? i walked to bus #1 with the sun on me and i actually said out loud, "thank you sun, for shining today."
maybe because i'm finishing another book?
maybe it's because i get to teach a mission specialist a new cart at work?
maybe it's because i have something to do at work?

whatever it is it's definitely not because it's 0 degrees outside. this is not an exaggeration, unfortunately. i looked at the school, which has the temp up all the time on my walk home from the gym and it said 02°. brrrrrrrr!

as i dreaded emerging from the red line i looked around to see the entire entrance to the el decorated for valentine's day. i noticed some in the little box for the worker earlier, but now it's all over the entry thingys too. i laughed a little bit. i've never been a big supporter of valentine's day, but i like that this person is =)

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike

I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
