So I realize it's been a while since I blogged, but oh well. I am contemplating deleting my blog in general, but for now, I will share some highlights of my trip to Denver as I just moved my sister to her new humble abode!
1) truck stops- We spent about 45 min to an hour sitting at a truck stop trying to figure out why the moving truck's check engine light was on. I sat and read for my online class...other than that it was pretty uneventful. Moral of the story: TRUCK STOPS ARE BORING!
2)shaved cats- My aunt and uncle got their cats groomed for the summer and they literally shaved everything but their heads and feet. They looked like little lions with Ugg boots! haha so cute. Moral of the story: CATS SHOULD KEEP THEIR FUR
3) Ralph Snooze Coffee Guy- There was this really good looking guy at this delicious breakfast restaurant called snooze. He was wearing a Ralph Lauren shirt and I accidentally cut in front of him in the coffee line. You know me though, I have to have my coffee or I don't function, and clearly I don't notice when people are in line....that's ok, he was nice and let me go anyway. Moral of the Story: COFFEE ALWAYS WINS!
4)rain: Rain is cool! Me and my sister rode bikes to downtown Denver on 4th of July and walked around 16th street mall. Then, the skies opened up and rain started to fall (name that movie quote). As everyone rushed from the streets into the covered stores nearby, I was perfectly content standing on the bridge we were on, looking at the beautiful city, in my sister's borrowed camoflage tee and letting the water hit me. As I would look up at the sky, I could see the drops coming right towards me (and eventually hit my eyes, not the best idea), and I was perfectly content. Moral of the story: LIFE ISN'T ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORM TO PASS, IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN :)
5) Surrey bikes- Rode around Washington park on a surrey bike, you know the ones that hold like 6 people? So much fun, we felt like we were on display. Moral of the story: ANYONE CAN BE COOL IF THEY HAVE A SURREY ;)
6)Biff it- Both my sister and I totally biffed it off of my Aunt's bike that we borrowed. We literally just fell like a tree being cut down, like plop on the ground out of nowhere haha... Moral of the story: SENSITIVE BREAKS + FEET STRAPS ON THE PEDALS= KERRR---PLOP!!
7)Scenic drives with my Uncle- Moral of the story: COLORADO IS BEAUTIFUL!
8) British accents are cool- So, my chain broke on my bike, and as me and my sister were stranded trying to fix it, a nice couple with British accents walked up! They were really from New Zealand, but they were the nicest couple ever! The man helped us get the chain back on, and the lady was prepared with hand wipes so we could wash the nasty black stuff off our hands. They were so cute, visiting their son and his "wee baby" (said with an accent). Moral of the story: BRITISH ACCENTS REALLY ARE THE COOLEST, AND THE PEOPLE ARE COOL TOO :)
9)Early flights suck- So I booked a 6am flight home thinking, Oh yes I can get home and still be able to work. Clearly it did not register that I would be getting up and leaving by 4:15 am to get to the airport....well I look at my phone when I wake up and it's 5am! One hour before my flight left and it took 30min to get to the airport. So I rush to the airport with 25min til my flight left...Sadly, even though I already checked in, they wouldn't print my boarding pass. Even if I did have my boarding pass, there's no way I would have made it through security in time...So they put me on stand-by. So here I am, sitting in the airport waiting and hoping that somebody goes through my exact situation so I can get on the full flight home. Ironic huh? Moral of the story: NO EARLY FLIGHTS, NO MATTER HOW INVINSIBLE YOU THINK YOU ARE, YOU WILL ALWAYS SLEEP TOO LATE!
Anyways, those are the highlights of my trip. All in all, it was a good one, and as much as I am excited for my sister starting her life, I will miss her terribly! I love you, sister and wish you best of luck in CO :)
