I'm Back?

Well. It certainly has been a while, hasn't it?

The last time I blogged was on December 19 - and that post wasn't even a real one, just a fun little Fill In the Blank Friday.

Tonight, for the first time in over a month, I have had time to sit and mull over my thoughts. I'm not going to lie to you - there's nothing very deep going on in my head right now. I've exhausted my brain over the past few hours with Spanish papers, copyediting assignments and grammar studies...and now I'm sitting and listening to music, snuggled up in a blanket, feeling very peaceful and very happy that it's the weekend.

Life has been so busy lately. Brief recap - my sister got engaged recently (I am the maid-of-honor and am in full wedding planning mode as of late), I got myself a nice boyfriend (he' definitely a keeper), I'm working to keep my decent GPA (3.53 cumulative, which is pretty good for college, if you ask me), I'm working hard at work, and I'm readying myself to go to Spain in March (passport arrived in the mail a few weeks ago so it's starting to sink in that I'm actually leaving).

Between all of these things, I haven't had much time for myself.

Not that I'm complaining - I like to stay busy. I get restless when I'm not doing something. Just the other day the instructor of my Cardio Combo class gave us extra stretching time and walked us through some yoga...it was definitely not relaxing for me. Instead of focusing on my breathing or letting myself relax, I felt as if I were wasting time. I even felt a little guilty lying there when I had so many other things I needed to do.

I think I have a problem.

But even though my doing nothing involves doing something (reading, writing, watching Friends or Gilmore Girls, cleaning), I think that's okay - because that's what I need.

I'm going to try to ease back into this whole blogging world...I've missed it! I don't know what, if anything, I have to say...but if I come up with anything, you all will be the first to know!

And now I'm off to relax...aka organize my closet. Hey, to each her own, right?
