Currently: Round 2

I know I have already completed a "currently" survey, but the beauty of writing about what you are currently loving is that it changes daily. At least that's the way it works for me. So, please enjoy reading about what I am currently enjoying!

Eating: Black beans and corn with salsa. It's a strange addiction, but I am currently loving it! Really, anything with salsa gets two thumbs up from this girl.


Drinking: Water. Always water. I'm probably the most boring human being in terms of what I like to drink. Maybe I have never the reason why the only thing that I really like to drink is water, so here it goes. When I was little, I was obsessed with apple juice. Warm apple juice, to be specific (trust me, I know that's gross). Anyway, I asked my mom to bring me some apple juice, but she accidentally brought me some warm Coke instead. When you are expecting apple juice, Coke is not a pleasant taste. And from there on out, I was the awkward girl asking for water at birthday parties, receiving strange looks from my friends, as well as from any parents who were present.

Feeling: Thankful, free, and joyful. I know I am more than capable of feeling this way in the midst of a crazy school year, but there is something about summertime that tends to leave a permanent smile on my face, and permanent joy in my heart. Yes, I have some commitments this summer, but I am feeling very thankful for the friends and the experiences that I have already had this summer, and I am very excited for all that is still to come.

Doing: Working, working, working. I am finishing up my first week of work at SRD, and I finally feel like I am getting back into the desk groove. I have had to brush up on the answers to some frequently asked questions, but I have loved being back at my home away from home.

I also had a little too much fun drawing this
Thinking: About how great of a summer this has already been, and how much more fun there is to be had. Almost everyday, I find myself thinking about my Europe trip last summer, and how incredible that experience was. I miss everything about my European summer, but this summer is certainly shaping up to be a great one, too.


Reading: Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt. I am not going to lie and say that it is the easiest read I've ever picked up, but I guess it's good for me to keep my mind stimulated, right? I've found it very interesting so far, but I am only a couple of chapters into it. I am also reading Come Home by Lisa Scottoline. I recently finished two of her other books, and I really liked them. This one is also turning out to be a very promising read.

Watching: I'm actually not watching anything at the current moment. I still have one episode of Pretty Little Liars season 2 left, and I actually just received an email from Netflix informing me that season 3 is currently available. I am hoping to finish more books than television series this summer, though, so help keep me accountable for that one!

Listening: Daniel Crawford's new album Home. I have known his family since I was four years old, so not only is the album awesome, but he's also a pretty cool guy. Give it a listen - he's on both iTunes and Spotify!

Learning: How to be content no matter the circumstance.

Loving: Sunshine. We have enjoyed some absolutely beautiful summer days here in Texas, and I have loved being able to spend a lot of them just playing outside - hammocking, picnicking, swimming - I just love being outdoors.
