Study Break Adventure!
Sometimes all you need is a little snow, and a peppermint mocha to make everything seem alright. We are smack into the middle of finals week (or month the way it's dragging on) and I have been tired of studying since day one so tonight, after having a semi productive day, I decided to take a walk downtown with a friend to go work on my mothers Christmas gift (another post for another day). It was the best thing I have done in a while.The temperature was perfect, snow was falling from the sky, the roads were still and there was the occasional Christmas decoration. It was like the world belonged to us for this night. It was as close to perfect as Fredericton can ever get! it was a great chance to refocus and be ready for a few more hours of productivity before bed!

one of those nights
I was having one of those nights where you just feel like nothing is going right and you are alone in the world (although we won our first mixed curling match, that was nice) and I decided to look back on my old blog posts. Man I am a weird person haha. It actually helped me a lot tonight to see how much change has happened over the past year or so. I have learned so much, discovered so many things about myself and those around me. It hasn't always been happy stepping, dark waters rolled by, but I lived. And I will continue to live.
One of the things that struck me was how I could remember certain events. Like the one night I was biking home from curling and I almost lost a hand because I forgot a glove. Or the day I walk outside and fall on ice. Or the specific canoe ride I had this summer. The words of those memories brought me back to a time when I could feel the pain, or the peace, the frustration, the adventure. It's crazy the power words have on us.
There really was no point to this post, I think I just wrote it for myself, for the next time I am going through a rough patch that I can look here and know everything will be just fine!
Until then,
Britt
