Jump from a plane?

Today I went to lunch with a friend and he asked me a very good question... He said 'would you jump from a plane just because you were afraid that it could blow up?!' Seriously that has made me think a lot today.  I definitely would classify myself as a girl who worries too much, is scared to take chances, and might possibly be irrational from time to time. And I have left many good things because I was afraid of what could possibly happen, that usually doesn't!!! So today I am taking the trip.  The whole way.  Embracing the possibilities of failure, of it blowing up in my face.  And I'm going to enjoy it.  Worry free and everything! I mean life is about adventures right? Lets see how it goes.

comfort food

I was dying for some comfort food today.  Homemade Macaroni and Cheese, well bowties and cheese, will definitely hit the spot on a chilly November day. I don't know why but I have been in a mood to cook lately.  I'm thinking of making some thai food for my family this week. Which I'm very excited about. Seriously there is nothing better than GOOD FOOD!!! Mmm... I love it.

pizza, acrobats, ice cream, and tandem bikes

Sometimes I really do live a whimsical life.  Last night was one of them. A friend called me up, asked how my week was, and some what honestly admitted that I had had a boring week.  So he made some calls and then I was onto a whimsy night.  We had a quick bite of pizza, while chatting about our favorite composers.  Then hurried to this Chinese acrobatic show.  Which was incredible by the way.  I was completely awe struck especially when a young Asian boy balanced himself by one hand on top of seven chairs. Then, almost home, we decided to grab some ice cream.   We discussed our colored personalities and he suggested that we take a ride on a tandem bike.  I didn't know that he had access to one and I told him no it was definitely too cold... Wow where was  my spontaneity?! I guess he convinced me because next thing I knew we were in his bike shop.  Which at that moment I just had to stop and laugh. I was standing in this some what warehouse, full of old bikes, smelling like grease and having tunes of Regina Spektor and Fun running through my mind. How could life get any better. Thankfully they had a monstrous coat for me to wear on this late November, night, tandem bike ride through campus. But I can't even tell you how I felt. I love nights like that... That keep you up replaying everything. Cheers to whimsy nights.
