Melancholy. That sort of seems like my job description, hah! >_< Oh I love emoticons.
I'm currently a few days into my NC trip (#2, with Leah again!). WE just got back from a very snazzy Italian restaurant called Vivace, where we had sparkling Rose' and affogato, among other (pricey) delicacies ;) My oh my, my peanut butter toast kinda diet at home did not prepare my belly very well for this!!! What a great idea affogato is, though! (ice cream "drowned" in espresso ;) )
The "kids" ( hahaha- L, C, & L ) are currently outside playing cornhole. I'm not super interested because I already got 4 humungous bug bites today during my outdoor yoga, and I really just don't care about corn hole. But I'm glad they are playing for Chris' sake, since he seems to get a kick out of it ;)
Well, I deleted both insta AND Facebook from my phone this time. I don't really see any problem with checking them sometimes when I'm on the computer, but... UGH I just hate the idea of them controlling my life. I can't do anything enjoyable without feeling the need to post about it. It's almost as if I'm not sure if it was good or not until somebody else likes it, too. Oh how very superficial. Mind you these are words for MYSELF and not for others. We all know our own hearts... not everyone needs approval from others like a drug, as I do. So please keep these apps on your phone without guilt lol... unless you're like me, and you kinda need a purge.
Hmm I wonder how I can better use my time without these apps :) Maybe I can FINALLY go back to learning Arabic, do more with Italian and kindle, and make use of Yoga/workout apps! I so enjoyed getting to go to Zumba yesterday here in Raleigh, using Larua's guest pass for the YMCA. Plus I've done my own yoga outside 2 days in a row. Not that it's something to brag about- it's just kind of funny how now-a-days I can't survive without movin' and groovin'. I feel antsy and BLECH without it.
It's sort of strange how, though I am on vacation and AT my cousin's house, I almost thrive on the things I am able to do, JUST ME. My solo yoga, journaling, getting shtuff done... at home, I feel like I can't survive without people!! Apparently on vacation I LOVE my me time, and at home I crawl out of my own skin if I'm alone too long. What a weirdo I am! Much love though cause yeah, God made me the way He intended to. <3 nbsp="" p="">
