Summary #1

After reading through my blogs, I can say that I truly value my leisure time even though there are some constraints that prevent me from enjoying it on a regular basis. Especially with my conflicting school and work schedule, i rarely get to do the things I enjoy. School is the biggest constraint right now because of all the work and readings I have to do, but whenever I think I have a day off, I usually get scheduled to work. I am grateful that these are my only constaints right now, because when I get older, I know that my career, family, and my children will somehow get in the way; therefore I enjoy myself and travel as much as I can before life gets too hectic. I can now say that I understand what events are considered leisure, example: my trip to Punta Cana. Every single move I made during that week-long trip was freely chosen, everything made me very happy, and I returned back home feeling completely satisfied.

My weekend!!!!!!

I would just like to share with you what I did this weekend...Don't get too excited, it was nothing spectacular at all! But the best part was that I WENT SHOPPING!! I absolutely love to shop! Some might even say that is my favorite leisure activity! (haha im a nerd i know!) I found the nicest pair of black high-top converse shoes and i've been looking for them everywhere so i'm extremely happy about that! I probably should have been outside enjoying the gorgeous weather while it lasts, but that plan totally went down the drain... I also went to the Habs practice this morning which was pretty cool! I never really got a good look at Kurt Muller but I did today and he is very good looking!!!! So ya, I had a pretty sweet weekend, and i got a haircut too which is always fun!! :)

My vacation!

This past week I went on my first all inclusive vacation. I went to Punta Cana, Dominican Repulbic and had an amazing time! We got really lucky weather wise, we just missed Hurricane Ike, and left before the next hurricane was scheduled to hit. We got to go shopping and drive through the town to see how these people really live when they are not on the resort. It was a real eye-opener since I have never been to a country like this before. The most exciting part of this trip was that I got to swim with dolphins!!! Even though it was only for a few minutes, it was worth it!
