Little Bit of Everything

My lip is healing slowly but surely! I don’t like to talk much cause every time I move my mouth it hurts and I feel like Im ripping off the scap. It also looks nasty when I open my mouth :P

In other island news, last night I got off of work early and Ty, Amber and I met up with some of Ty’s friends to head to the north side of the island (We live on the east end). It was an adventure on steep windy roads to get to Hull bay. We listened to music, drank cheap beer and Ty and I also were able to take a walk along the beach.

The music was pretty good actually. Sax, piano and some clarinet to dance to. I love how the locals here love to just have a good time listening to music and drinking. Its entertaining. 


Today was my first day off since last weekend! So I woke up this morning, Amber and I went into Red Hook to take care of some things (poop…) and then I got dropped off at the national park dock so I could do some yoga while looking out at the bay. It was a beautiful morning, not too hot, not super windy. It was nice to spend some time on my own working out. Ive been doing really well at my yoga practice. I can do mermaid on one side now!!


Also, good news, Ty and I get to house sit for one of his friends this week! This means I can cook healthy food, do laundry and sleep in a bed that doesn't move! Woohoo! It really is the little things in life. 

Loving work, not hating the boat, enjoying being on the island with Ty and Amber and its awesome not being cold :)

Bio Bay, PR positives

The coolest part of our trip to Puerto Rico was definitely the Bioluminescent Bay in Vieques [side note, bioluminescence is a big word, mostly it just means stuff that lights up but scientifically it means 'bio'-life, 'lumin'-light, 'escence'-to put forth. So, life that puts forth light!] It was an experience that I cannot easily put into words. The night started out a bit strange. We got picked up at our hostel at 9pm, along with 5 other girls, by a thirty-something, long-haired gentleman. He walked us about a block to the van that would transport us to the bio-bay. The van was, well, to put it nicely, a fixer-upper. It had bench seats which were collapsing, the roof fabric was falling down, it puttered around and squeaked during turns. Ty and I joked that we were paying 40 bucks to get murdered in this van especially when we turned down a dirt, side street that was full of pot holes. We slowly lumbered along this road for a few minutes until we made it to our ...

Eating Like Crap is Crap

Im trying really hard not to spend money on food as there is so much food here at camp. Its not horrible food but its definitely not the best. So, with me trying not to spend money on food, I haven't been eating the greatest. I don't know if its because of other reasons, but Ive been feeling like shit lately and Im attributing it to lack of nutrients. I dont know how people eat crap all the time and survive. It must be a skill. I was eating alright about two weeks ago but this last week it hasn't been very pretty. Ive been a scavenger and theres been a lot of bread and fake meat and here is how I feel: Im tired ALL the time. No matter how many naps I take or hours I sleep a night, Im always exhausted by mid-day and just want to lay around, sleep and do nothing. Ive also been starting to get weak headaches throughout the day. Or having sore muscles from doing minimal exercise. That also makes me just want to do nothing. My stomach is also crazy. It hurts if I eat som...

Summerfest Day 1

Amazing. I was just going tonight to hang and  see some bands, no expectations, but SFest delivered on its first day. My friend Alex and I got there a bit early so we walked around the shops and the smaller stages. We stumbled upon Five Knives which were like a hip-hop-y Ke$ha. If you know me at all you'd know that I probably loved it. They were pretty fun. Then a bit later when we were sitting watching a local sax band play, the fireworks started. I never NEED to see the big bang but its always a pleasure when I see it. I got great seats by accident sitting on a table. I always have a smile on my face when I watch colorful explosions in the sky. Then, the white out, massive explosion that is the epic finale. I couldn't see anything for at least a minute afterwards. I love when the loudness is felt in your heart and there is so much going on that its just a colorful mess. Most excellent. Then we went to find Bastille. As soon as they came on I was extremely impressed. H...
