A few things

I've been lying in bed all day, literally. These last few hours have been torture and I suddenly had the urge to write something down (which never happens), especially since I haven't posted for a while. 

I return home in a mere 3 weeks! I have learned that time is one of the most precious things in life and we must soak up every moment of it while we can because it flees past us before we have a chance to realize that a moment once lingered with us.

I thought I'd share a few things that I've been thinking about and a few things that I'm thankful for seeing as I've been sitting all day in bed doing absolutely nothing...well I did a minuscule amount of homework before rushing back into the warmth of my sheets, but let's be serious, that hardly counts right?

1. I started a tumblr a while ago but have recently become addicted. It is my new inspiration board and in my humble opinion, way better than Pinterest. If you care to take a peek follow this link. Piece of my Life

2. I am generally pretty independent but this experience has made me realize how important it is to live close to my family and my love. In fact, I didn't even make it 5 minutes walking into the SeaTac airport without crying. I also cried myself to sleep the entire week I was staying in London. I'm a baby I know.



3. I am really, really excited to come home and whip up my more than 50 pumpkin recipes that I have either pinned or bookmarked on my computer. It's a ridiculous obsession I know, but also an important part of Fall that Spain does not partake in. 


4. Lastly I miss the comfort of drinking a nice grande Starbuck's coffee. It's sad and first-worldly I know, but Spain's coffee consists of tiny coffee mugs with one shot of espresso and a little milk. I have already decided that as soon as I walk off that plane in Seattle I am walking straight to Starbuck's before I rush down to baggage claim to meet my family. 


I am sorely missing all of you. One essay and two exams to go and I will be off to Madrid and heading home.
