Keeping myself busy....

I took a break from school... 6 whole weeks to do nothing but catch up on books I actually WANT to read, lay in the warm summer sun, eat cubes of watermelon from my cozy spot in my hammock and.... GO on vacation... to a remote little island, perhaps you have heard of it...

HAWAII!!!! That's right, I took a vacation from school to go on a romantic and luxurious and beautiful and amazing and deserved vacation with my best-friend SueAnn (*cue angry jealous eyes from everyone reading this...*)

(yummmm... I hope I never come back....OK...FOCUS!)

However... while I wouldn't complain one tiny little iota of a fraction about spending 6 weeks in Hawaii, I am only spending 10 days, and now had/have 4.5 weeks to fill the void.

After falling into a deep cavernous funk for a few weeks... I have finally started something productive and EXCITING!

SCUBA DIVING!

In an effort to work on my 30x30 list, I am tackaling scuba certification! Im currently half way thru, with 4 tests and 2 dives under my belt (who knew Id be taking tests and enjoying it with out even being in school! ) and I have a 2 dives and one major test left! This is something that I have always wanted to do, and have finnaly found the time, energy and a diving buddy to do it with! Its beautiful, peaceful and opens up a whole new world of adventure for me- and think about it... when have I ever turned down an adventure??
