Happy Friday!

Fridays are the greatest. Especially when it's been such a long week (I think it's like a requirement or something for the week after spring break to be exceptionally long). This Friday was great because i got to spend some much needed quality time with some of my girls (shoutout to Kelly, Emily, and Chan: love y'all to the moon!!). And although I was really hoping that I would get to sleep in tomorrow, instead I will be getting up at the crack of dawn to work at the Rumpshaker 5k race. Yes, that's it's real name. And I get why it's called that because it's for colon cancer research...I'm just not quite sure how I feel about wearing a t-shirt that says "Rumpshaker" on it with a picture of a butt. But it's for a good cause, right? In other news, I'm planning on FINALLY seeing The Hunger Games tomorrow. I think that I might be the only person on the face of the earth who hasn't yet seen this movie. How hipster of me. But i have been DYING to see it and hope that it lives up to my (high) expectations. And here are two reasons why I'm super pumped: 

 

Love them. I have to admit, I am Team Peeta, but Liam Hemsworth...well, enough said. 

Some other happenings in my life right now:
52 days til graduation
88 more days til SOUTH AFRICA
EEEEEEEEPPP I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MYSELF.   
 So many fun things are coming up in the near future, and while I'm so excited about this summer and heading off to college, I really don't want to wish away my last 7 weeks of high school (oh my word. can't believe I just said that. 7 weeks. Craziness. I am absolutely ecstatic about being a Demon Deacon, but I definitely want to enjoy every moment. Cliche, I know. But true. 

Well, that is all for tonight. Peace out, girl scouts (and boy scouts too..I don't discriminate).

Here Goes Nothing...

It’s official: I have entered the blogging world. Or is it the blog world? Yikes! looks like i’m already struggling. Needless to say, constructive criticism is much appreciated.

     Anywho.. I once heard that people tend to be most creative late at night, so in an attempt to get my creative juices flowing last night, I made a blog. We’ll see how this works out. In other news, I am currently suffering from senioritis (if anyone knows the cure, call me maybe definitely). Oh and I’m also currently listening to “Call Me Maybe” on repeat. I’m just a wee bit obsessed with that song at the moment. A few other obsessions I currently have: 
 1. hiking
 2. the Fun. pandora station
 3. sea foam green nail polish
 4. chocolate covered blueberries
 5. just dance 3

Random list, I know. This is what happens when I’m struggling to create a first blog post. Now for an explanation of the blog title. Here’s a hint: it’s really nerdy. STILL haven't guessed it after that helpful hint? Ok, I'll tell you...It’s from a quote by the one and only Thomas Jefferson:

But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.”

I just love this quote because it’s about two of my favorite things: friends and sunshine! Oh, and I’m also a little bit of a history nerd (therefore, Thomas Jefferson=historical figure=awesomeness). Well, enough about the blog title. You get the picture. I’m thinking that’s enough for my first blog post. More to come..maybe?

Peace & blessins,
Sarah (a baby blogger)
