Might Be A Quarter Life Crisis

This whole spur of the moment thing seems to be a trend these days. Last week, Vegas, this week....DENVER!

I have been thinking a lot about how everyone chooses to live their lives in different ways. Everyone has the times when they just need to break from the norm and live it up! I choose to "live it up" by being spontaneous.

Trip to Thailand
2 different trips to Vegas with 5 minutes notice
Trip to Denver with a few hours notice
....seems to be a trend here right?

Luckily, being spontaneous and dropping your life for the sake of an adventure is not the only way to live it up. Some people choose eating an extra piece of cake, some choose the all rebellious not doing a reading assignment, some choose a dance party in their kitchen. There are so many ways to let go for a bit and just live life how you want to! All of them are fun, all are personal and individual, and all are important. If everyone chose the same tactic in doing this, well lets just say there would have been a lot of people driving to Denver last night, or there would be a froyo shortage in all the world. Everyone is willing to go to various lengths to add some variation in their life. I guess I choose spontaneous travel, but not everyone has to to that!

I think this just might be my quarter life crisis. I figure I have lived 20 years, at least 15 of those have involved going to school, so why not branch out a few weekends to mix things up.

I only have so much to show for my 20 years of life. Now at least, I know when I look back on it i'll have no regrets. School and reality will always be there when I get back. But when else in my life can I drop everything and peace out for a weekend?!

So everyone, go live it up today! Whatever that means to you. If it means adding an extra mile on your run for the feel of adrenaline...do it! If it means making a delicious cake, do it and save me a piece :) ! If it means being adventurous and meeting a new person, tell them I say hello. If it means a dance party, turn on your ipod and don't hold back. The options are endless. You just gotta do it!
