Senior Ball, Sunshine, and Signs

So this week has been filled with a lot of drama but in the midst of it, I've had a really good time as well. When things get rough, have fun to get your mind off things. I've been working really hard also but I've been enjoying the sun that has basked the bay area lately.

My seniors had senior ball on saturday night and last year, i didn't go and regretted it. I decided to go this year because I know a LOT of seniors and never had been. It was also an excuse to dress up and curl my hair. I went to the mall on Friday and got hot pink shoes to match my dress- how random- i know- but it was a lot of fun looking for such a random pair of heels. My co-worker and I went to dinner and then went to Senior Ball. At my high school, we combined both juniors and seniors but at this school, there are separate ones for each. I had an awesome prom and it was really fun to see my students all dressed up and really excited to be there. I was an instant mini-celebrity- where kids want to take pics with you, you get a lot of hugs, and a lot of introductions to dates. We also got to take professional pics... we were only there for an hour- but it was a blast just reminescing and seeing my students so happy and grown up looking.

I also got to go to Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz this weekend- it was soo relaxing not having too much work to do since I worked all week and didn't have much to do. The sun was shining and I got to go on a mini-hike, go wine tasting, and visit a friend in the process. It was just one of those weekends that I would love to repeat week after week but with my schedule, it doesn't happen for a long time.

Another thing that happened to me was I saw someone's car that I knew- not a big deal right? well, I haven't talked to them in a while and I freaked out. It ended up not being their car(the interior was different)- but same color car, same license plate, same car- you would freak out too. It was crazy... but it was a sign that I need to be grateful for what i have...

ok, hope everyone is doing well...
