Something to Look Forward To

I love fridays because that means that the weekend is just around the corner, wooohooo!!!! This weekend is supposed to be sunny and warm, unfortunately I'm going to be stuck studying for finals. However, seeing as how it is going to be sunny and warm, I think that I'm going to enjoy the nice weather and study in my backyard for a while. I can enjoy the sounds of nature. I always like sitting in my backyard, it's a place for quiet, a place of solitude, somewhere in which the world just slows down. We live in such a fast-pace world that never slows down, and if you don't keep up then you get left behind, having a place to just enjoy the quiet and the calm is much needed, there are no expectations when it is calm and that can be very refreshing. Maybe some time in the quiet outdoors is just the motivation I need to finish out the quarter strong! So this weekend I am looking forward to the nice weather and enjoying some quiet, peaceful time outdoors.

Once finals are over I think I'm going to take advantage of the beautiful weather and drive to the beach. While I love the peace and quiet in my backyard, there is nothing that compares to the peace and calming feeling that come from hearing the tide crash against the rock, the murmur of the waves, the smell of the air, and the refreshing feel of the wind against your face. Ah! Just thinking about it makes me feel calm already!
