so i've never really been one to do what is expected of me. i try to go with the flow, but it usually just ends up being a little part of me and then i find my own way. aoii is a pretty good example of this. with that said, i have never had a stereotypical spring break...until now. and i would like to say, that there may have been a few upsets and some rocky conversations and some questionable decisions, but i don't regret any of them because at the end of the day, it will be the good stuff that i'll remember. I haven't gone anywhere simply to relax since i was 15. FIFTEEEEEEENNNN. that is ridiculous. I completely forgot about everything and the blows that did come from reality were almost muted. and my general calmness reflected back into the parts of reality that did come find me.

First, disneyland. well, i am incredibly sorry to say, and i'm sacred to write this down or say it out loud, but Disneyland has officially lost it's magic for me. i was not giddy OR excited and it kinda blew. except that i was there with hilarious epic amazing people. there were NO FIGHTS. WHICH IS UNREAL. and we just had a blast! it was kindof low key but also just, great. i'm so glad that i hung with the people that i did. I'm pretty sure it was fate. we were so great together. the fact that me and #1 had 17 fast passes at the end of the day was, i'll sound like my dad and say taht it was one for the books. how many did we use? we used them until the magic was gone and we were bored lol. i can't even count. nobody else would have stuck with it as long as we did either. it felt like we were squeezing the Disney sponge in all it's glory. and Bug's world was GREAT!!! I'M SO GLAD THAT EVERYONE ENJOYED IT AND THAT I GOT TO DO IT WITH two of the greeeeeatest girls ever. also being pseudo engaged was possibly the highlight of the trip. i've got to say that bc deciding that everyone we were with was our wedding party was perfect since they are all wonderful and that would be a dream for all of them to still be around whenever that happens. we got our own little gtc wedding which was perfect. Also lp's family was amazing and her dog is great! i wish my dog still had that much energy. I also happen to know a large portion of the OC freeways just as well as i do the LA freeways now, thank you parents needing 40000 car movements over the weekend.

after dland it was off to palm springs with the little! i thought i would be exhausted and not have the energy to make decisions or give imput, which ended up working out fine because we were with so many wonderfully opinionated girls :) so they were able to do most of the deciding and i was able to do mostof the riding along :) I spent three days sitting by the pool glistening (like that one?) while i stared at snow capped mountains and ate gold fish and drank icy things.

For now that is all. but it was really an incredibly epic spring break. no regrets, things happen, and i forgot how much i love heated pools :)
