Livin' on a prayer

I'm itching to go on an adventure. I don't even care what kind. It can be as simple as when we hiked up to "the rock" in the mud during a tornado watch last week. Okay, I made that sound misleadingly exciting. The weather was just fine, despite the tornado watch, and we didn't know about the watch until we had already decided to go. Still, I loved hiking in the bluffs and getting muddy. I really want to go on a road trip, even a day trip, to someplace random. I really want to go explore some place I've never been. I feel like there aren't many opportunities for adventures when I'm back home.

I keep getting more and more excited about the idea of spending a year in Europe after graduation. I should really check on that scholarship ASAP. I still might decide to do some volunteering after that too. It'd be a really great opportunity for new experiences, and I might as well do as many different things as I can before really getting out there in the "real world."

Annnnnyway. I'm not sure if I mentioned it yet, but I reached one of my running goals for the summer! I ran 10 miles last Sunday. :) I can't wait for Kaja's grad party to be out of the way so I have more time to run.

I need to find new running routes too...
