Despite where you live, I think it is important to take little "trips" every once in a while. It can be a day trip to a city you've never been to or a store you always wanted to go but it's too far. It can be an over-night or weekend trip to St. Louis or like me, U of I. No matter where it is, just go! Get out of the bubble that you live in day-to-day and smell some new air and see some new things. To me, the only way to appreciate where you are is leaving and being able to call a place "home". You gotta shake things up a bit, especially after the brutal winter we had here in the Midwest.
So whether it be a college visit, a spontaneous road trip through corn fields, or trying a new restaurant 30 minutes away; just get out and enjoy.
I appreciate your sentiment in this post. I'll admit that over the course of this long winter I've begun to get a little stir crazy. I know that getting out for a drive, or walk, or anything outside of the house helps me to clear my head and relax. Also, and this may seem like kind of a silly question to ask, but what is "Unofficial"?
ReplyDeleteIt is "Unofficial St. Patrick's Day" at U of I. Basically an excuse for everyone there to day drink lol
