To start

Well teaching ending last Friday. the weekend was fun, hanging with friends. No crazy parties or pats on the back/hugs goodbye.  It was more a 'see you soon' serenade and quite frankly i was fine with that. Granted the only child in me wanted cake and presents, i knew better, i have such a long journey ahead-little celebrations last much longer-as do bits of cake:) 
   I have begun this self exploration with the purchase of some suggested reading- 'the Artist's Way' by julia cameron. Although it sounds a little hokey, it seems to resonate well with me regardless of some of its spiritual connotations.  It is designed as a creativity workshop, to help the reader allow themselves to open up and 'be'.  Perhaps be more accepting of oneself, ones hopes or plans, or be more willing to explore life and self simultaneously. 
   regardless ill give it a shot. It involves writing, which as time goes on is something i am really starting to enjoy again.
   Ooo and i bought a book called 'skinny bitch'. a 'no nonsense guide for girls who want to stop eating crap and start looking fabulous' HA! im so psyched for it! a new mind and body here i come!  no really, just thought it was interesting and it has some great research backed points about not eating meat and dairy. Im up for anything as long as you can convince my stubborn self its worth it:) 
    So good luck to me as i start this new endeavor!

where to go


Driving across the country is something i have always wanted to experience.  I think doing it alone will be an amazing opportunity to meet new people and try some new things. 
Thank you to everyone who has helped me to get to this point.  I am ready to head out into the great unknown! 

Its the journey, not the destination.
