No More November

Can't believe it's already the last day of November! That's ridiculous. Where did it go? Well it ended up being pretty swell. Learned a lot, did a lot, worked a lot... what more could I ask for? I had a fantastic Thanksgiving day.. I hope you did too! I stuffed myself with food, that happens with two sides of the family and two Thanksgivings! Haha. I had a great time playing Super Smash Brothers and Mario Kart at my Grandma's. Then playing Cranium and Catch Phrase at my sister... sooo much fun! I had to work the rest of the weekend though, so I didn't get as much home time as I would have like, but oh well! Here are some pictures of me and the family, and the twin sister. I couldn't be more grateful for the amazing family I have.



I have much more to share about the past week, so I should be posting more soon!
Have a great night,
Alex

Laugh Out Loud

I hope this makes you laugh as much as it made me. I seriously have never laughed so hard at a website. I spent hours on it Sunday, that was part of the reason I got nothing done. But it was worth it! Put a smile on and bundle up, it's freezing in Arizona.. I can't even imagine the east coast! It's almost Turkey Day... yay!

Happy Tuesday!

Lazy Sunday

A long work day turned into a perfectly lazy day. I got off early from work because of the rainy weather and the IronMan triathlon that made renting boats kind of impossible. So I took the long way on my bike enjoying the overcast day and beautiful Tempe scenery. What could have been a productive homework day turned into me lounging in my PJ's and doing what I feel like I haven't done in a while... nothing. Cloudy days always make me want to snuggle up and just unwind, and I got to do exactly that. Definitely just what I needed. I made these monstrous pancakes a couple days ago and they were absolutely scrumptious. I might just make breakfast for dinner tonight, but I'm out of milk. Bummer. I could really eat pancakes anytime, who couldn't? Haha. Well have a great night and I hope you have some time to unwind today... or soon!
xoxo,
Alex.

Sleepyhead.

Listening to Passion Pit, feeling accomplished. Getting homework done, going to work, eating dinner, it's been a great day... and this website made it a little bit better. It seriously cracked me up. Put a smile on and have a fantastic night :]

Dear Blank, Please Blank.

Headed to get some delicious chai tea, maybe catch some good music, then taking the light rail.
See ya,
Alex

Music Monday.

I heard one song by these guys and fell in love. It's the perfect mixture of chill music and lyrics you can sing along to. I love finding new music!

Fair Love.

The State Fair is always nostalgic, and always a filling time... stomach and heart-wise.


Wonderful photo by my awesome brother.
I absolutely love it.


Good night,
Alex

Late-Night Sunday

I clearly can't handle caffeine.

I DON'T WANT AN END.
Not 'The End.' Not a slow end to the texting. Not an end of the semester, see you never again. I want to be more and I wish I knew how you felt, because you have me all kinds of mixed up and I shouldn't have messed things up that one late night when I just wanted to see you.


November be good to me.
Take Care,
Alex

Bewildered Time Traveler

I just went on about a three mile run to clear my head. I was driving myself crazy with thoughts and just needed to move, and get out in the fresh air. Especially right now, the weather in Arizona is absolutely perfect. So I turned on some John Mayer and hit the pavement and just moved and breathed. I'm feeling a little better. I get to go to New Mexico for the Green Chile Fest Ultimate Frisbee competition. Super excited! I didn't know if I was going to be able to go because I just got a new job (Tempe Boat Rentals on Tempe Town Lake!) and was iffy about asking it off. Turns out my boss plays ultimate to, very nice coincidence. Anyways, that's why have been so absent on this blog, school and work all piled up, especially with midterms. So now I can breathe and write a little. Well, this is how I feel right now.
Can't believe it's November, but I'm loving the weather!



Here's a pumpkin cake that me and my twin sister made for Halloween. We're bound to be on the Food Network someday. Well I hope you all take a second to breathe and enjoy the beautiful fall weather, and remember that everything happens for a reason and it'll all work out how it's supposed to. Okay, so maybe that advice is mostly for me... but feel free to take it!
