Graduation is in less than a week, and what I mourn most are all the days I spent just trying to get by.

I really wish it hadn't taken me the whole four years to realize how truly blessed I am.

Butterfly Reserves

Yesterday I went to the Monarch Butterfly Reserve with my friend. Every year hundreds of Monarch butterflies migrate here to stay warm during the winter months. I didn't get many pictures of butterflies as they were too high up, but the entire area was beautiful!

                                      

Cotton Candy Skies

The sunsets lately have been too pretty for words. Almost makes me feel like I'm on a strange, alien planet. I can't get enough. 

This guy promptly face planted after I took this photo, priceless.
(He was fine, got right back up after)

Rain rain go away...

The roofs leaking, my mom's car wont start up (batteries fine, we're towing it to a mechanic), it's been pouring rain for the past week, and my roommates' and my fish is going a bit mental and keeps slamming his head against the walls of his tank.

I'm ready for the sky to stop leaking now.

All my rain gear is sitting comfortably in my closet in Santa Barbara

Home :)

I feel really blessed to get to fall asleep to the sound of waves at night. Once you master the art of blocking out drunk people yells it's really quite nice.

Backyard =]  

Fuzzy bumblebee on a tree right outside my door. I'm lucky it didn't go after my face next.
