This weekend was easily one of the best weekends I've had in my entire life. Not because I drove to Vegas, blew copious amounts of money, lost my friend who was supposed to be getting married in three days and got wasted on roofies, no, none of that, in fact, that was the plot from The Hangover. My weekend was amazing because I was surrounded by friends who are so genuine, intelligent and charismatic that you can't help but feel like you're on cloud 9 with them.
It takes a lot to get me in a shitty mood, but alas, I definitely was in one while the evening approached on Saturday night, not even Rebecca Black's Grammy winning single could bring my spirits up. It's unfortunate that sometimes it takes a shitty friend to make you realize how much you should be appreciating your stellar ones. In and of itself, I guess that's what I'm doing, taking the time to tell my friends I appreciate them.
It's the end of spring break and I'm sure tons of people who went on holiday (that's what the Brits and other foreigners call vacation... I'm totally adopting it) met some people and partied with them but will never talk to them again. I'm fortunate enough to have access to my friends whenever I want them and I truly am grateful for that. So friends, cheers to you! Champagne for my real friends and real pain for my sham friends!!!

Remember Your Roots
Everyone has heard the saying "You can never know where you're going until you understand where you came from" or some form of the saying. Conversely, you can never really know where you're going if you're stuck in where you are. As of late, I've felt completely and utterly stagnant to the point where ANY vacation would be a good one.
There are times in our lives where we just need to get away from it all, don't we owe ourselves that? Hasn't the monotony of everyday life gotten to be too much to deal with? Certainly a small break is MORE than deserved for a couple of days. Of course it is. Whether it's a spa day, a road trip, or a vacation overseas. We all need those little getaways to keep us sane. As the saying goes, all work and no play makes for a dull boy. No one likes to be dull, it's all about looking sharp and living smart!
