1. I am in love with Beach House all over again. “Teen Dream” is such an amazing album. Every song is unique and amazing in itself yet listening to the whole album makes each song so much more special and interesting. “Norway” is one of my favorites! I love everything about that song.

2. I’ve realized I am so lucky because I have such an amazing job that I love so much. Sometimes I’m afraid to admit it because I’m afraid I will jinx it all. I hold onto my happiness and brush it off like it’s nothing. But it is something! It’s time to appreciate it all because it’s something that I’m really grateful for. I am so so so happy about where I am and what I’ve learned and I am eternally grateful to all of the people at the school who’ve taken a chance on me.

3. I need to work on my serious face. My default reaction to everything is smiling and laughing at stuff. Sometimes I even smile at laugh at the most inappropriate/awkward moments…making those moments 10x exponentially worse. The kids are starting to ask me, “Why are you smiling?” when I tell them to stop or when I reprimand them for doing something wrong. So yeah…I need to work on that.

4. I seriously love Aveeno body wash. It’s the one thing I look forward to smelling first thing in the morning. The fig one and the lavender are my favorites. I’m obsessed.

5. I like taking Toby on runs. He is super cute and hot shirtless guys smile at him and at me when we are running. :)
