A weekend of diversions.

While my weekend at home did not provide any revelations in regard to my academic or career path, I did manage to divorce myself from the ball and chain that is my life at Point Park University.

It was refreshing to be around my family and go out with friends. Although I'm not originally from York, Pa and hate that I call such a backward county home, there is something comforting about being home (a.k.a. with my family and friends).

I enjoyed talking about everything but school with my friends. I don't like talking about school or what I do as a community facilitator with people outside of Point Park University because most people don't really get it. I usually end up telling my friends I go to school and I'm kind of like an RA.

Over the weekend, I went to two Halloween parties and spent a lot of time with my parents. This weekend was definitely a chance to let my hair down.

I was a Hooters zombie for Halloween.  Ps- Its my younger sisters old Hooters uniform .  My mom took this picture. Haha.

Upon my younger sister's suggestion, I decided to wear her old Hooters uniform and be a Hooter's zombie. It's pretty awful. Even worse, my mother took pictures.

As I had hoped my parents spoiled me (over fed me) and were understanding about my academic slump. The more time I spend away from home, the more my parents and I appreciate one another. I actually have a good time with my parents. When I first arrived we stayed up talking until almost 3a.m.

Maybe I didn't get any sleep this past weekend or realization but I certainly had a much needed reprieve from responsibility.
