Row 16 was where the adventure started. To my right was a girl who looked pretty normal so I initiated a conversation with her. After the first hello, conversation over airplane Dr. Pepper, and successfully making everyone around us feel awkward, I met one pretty awesome person. The guy to our left had 'beats' on for half of the flight but after asking him what he was listening to he took them off and joined in on our conversation about the latest Cosmo that I had picked up in the gift shop. Needless to say, even in the most terrifying situations (since it was the first time I was flying alone) fun was going to be had. My two new friends heard all about my trip and the blog that I was going to be keeping and they wrote these sweet messages in my notebook. Lesson number one: talk to strangers, because everyone really does have an interesting story to be told.
This morning I woke up to two little cuties jumping on my bed. I can't even believe how much Sarah and Carolyn have grown! I went to Sarah's assembly at her school this morning where she had her very own part, I was one very proud Aunt :)
I took off this afternoon and went exploring the area and did a little job searching. After walking into a Mercedes Benz dealership, an hour later I landed myself a job as a receptionist. Like, can someone pinch me? This has to be a dream!
Tonight I went to my first hot yoga class with Diana, and even though I almost died because of the temperature and lack of oxygen from the elevation, I told them to sign me up for 6 more weeks of Crossfit and Yoga!
24 hours exactly has gone by since I landed in Colorado Springs and already great things are beginning to unfold.
Stepping outside of your comfort zone really does lead to so many opportunities and so far, a hell of an adventure. Can't wait to see what's next.
