Favorite things


    1. Running.  If you haven't ever heard me complaining about my after school hobby then chances are we've never spoken.  Running is a sport in which the majority of participants will admit their fondness to love to hate it.  Although the cons may frequently seem to outweigh the pros, I dare you to find a cheaper, more effective form of therapy.  The quote, "find your happy pace" could not describe my opinion towards running any more effectively.  Running is my go to stress reliever, and I can't picture solving daily dilemmas without it.
     2. Clothes.  The level of comfort that are a result of yoga pants will never compare to the feeling of picking out an outfit I'm proud to wear. The meager act of walking into Urban Outfitters, or a similar store, is enough to plaster a smile on my face for the remaining time period I stay in the store.  Some people say all you can expect in life is taxes and death;  The only thing I can be sure about in my future, is that my closet will never be complete.
     3. Reading.  Nothing keeps me up later at night more than a good book.  Reading transports the reader to a safe environment in which they can temporarily experience the emotions and experiences of the characters in the book.  It takes every bit of will power to discontinue reading my book every night, and not read it from cover to cover.  Books have given me the ability to experience time periods and locations I wouldn't otherwise be able to, and to understands perspectives unlike my own.
