sea turtles & more

Just got back from my vacation in Barbados! It was sooooo nice to just be able to chillax with the family (ya know, I have been sooo stressed in Europe & all, haha). The best part was the nice naps on the beach, naps on the boat, & naps on the bus!

sea turtles!! the reason I went to barbados!!! there were so many, but it was really hard to take pictures of them since I spent a lot of time trying to chase after them to touch them, lol


getting searched by the Barbados security people (only one in our group) bc I'm a shady girl


Can't believe I'm heading to Atx tomorrow already, but I'm sooo excited to go back. I bought a nice new "executive office chair" for my desk, I have maps/pictures to decorate my place, planning to buy some speakers... it will feel just like home, but better. School, what?? Psha. I'm planning to live it up this semester. Last semester of coursework before rotations!!!

Love,

what up H-town

Just got back from an amazing time in Houston. I stayed with Amelia for 2 days: we ate, ate, ate, went shopping, ate, ate, and ate some more! Everything was so delicious and I couldn't stop myself even though I was constantly full.

After a full day of eating (no joke) on Friday, I headed into central Houston to see my undergrad ladies from Southwestern. Apparently, after graduating from SU, everyone went to H-town! It was so fun to catch up with everyone and to go out with the ladies again. Saturday afternoon, after a delicious lunch, I convinced the girls to take me to Herman Park. It was such a beautiful day outside and Herman Park is quite beautiful. The best part of the day was all the able girls (Cody just got ACL surgery) decided to roll down the hill, which, apparently, is on the Texan bucket list!


walking up the hill- love this pic

prepping- I obviously didn't know what to do


rolling


LOL- somehow we piled onto one another after awhile!


we started to roll again, but not sure how Roshni is perpendicular to us!


posed picture so Cody can have a picture of her "rolling"


After a nice lunch with the ladies at Dena's house, I managed to leave Houston this afternoon and arrived in snowy Dallas just in time for dinner. After one load of laundry, lots of folding & crazy packing, I'm ready for Barbados. Sea turtles- here I cooooooome!


Love & peace,
