I arrived back in the States and was greeted with Showmars at the airport. My puppy was at home ready to greet me as well! Although, she didn't sleep with me that first night, since then she hasn't left my room.
On Sunday, I hung out with some friends and got some Extreme Pita for lunch, Corona Lights, and Mexican for dinner. Mmmmm...
On Monday, the parents and I took a day trip to Chapel Hill to see Julia and switch cars with her. We were also able to grab some brunch with her. When we got home, I ran some errands, stocked up on some more food I missed and then had taco salad for dinner! Yum!
On Tuesday, Mom and I went shopping pretty much all day and 13 shopping bags later.....
Mom made stuffed green peppers for dinner! There was more hurricane like conditions back on the island, but luckily it ended up just being rainy and windy.
Wednesday was more errands and went to visit a friend in the hospital that night. Glad you are doing ok sweetie! Ryan, a friend from Ross, then made one of his stops on his road trip here, so we went and grabbed some dinner and drinks.
Thursday, I was able to get brunch at my favorite brunch place. Then Ryan and I ventured uptown and walked around so he could see the city. We stopped for dinner at Va Piano, again another place I love. We checked out Alive After 5 as well and had a few drinks there. Since it was ladies night, I got a free glass of champagne! Yum! In true Charlotte fashion, I wore my comfortable heels uptown, but unfortunately since I have been wearing nothing but sandals, even my comfortable heels tore my feet up. They are covered in blisters and killing me right now! Anyone up for giving me a foot massage? :)
Friday, Ryan continued his road trip to DC and Kellen came to visit me! Bucca was for dinner, omg amazing! Sarah came over as well so we were able to catch up over a bottle, or two of wine.
Saturday we had lunch with Sarah and went to see her wedding dress! She looked amazing! For dinner, I got some of my mom's homemade Italian beef and dessert was apple pie and ice cream! Delicious! The rest of the night was movie night!
Kellen left on Sunday after another brunch at my favorite place, so I vegged and watched movies the rest of the day.
I knocked out some more of my To-Do list on Monday as well as more relaxing. Mom made Shish Kabobs that night for dinner! My fav!
On Tuesday, I started looking looking over and outlining my books for next semester to get a head start. Of course, I did a little bit more shopping too :)
Wednesday was full of more errands, a little bit of Christmas shopping (shhh) and an interview for the Global Entry Trusted Traveler Network. This will hopefully save me a lot of time standing in customs at the airports! For lunch: Qdoba! For dinner: Chinese!
Thursday I nursed the burn that I got on my neck last night from curling my hair...smart. I had dinner with friends to see them one last time before I left.
Friday was my final day in the US before I go back and I spent it relaxing outside by the pool, dinner with my parents at The Greek Isle (one last Yum!), and a movie.
Saturday was my flight back to the island....can't believe break is over already! Luckily, I just missed the Democratic National Convention which was starting later that day.
Sunday I just relaxed and got ready for the start of classes the next day! The September Photo Challenge List is up on Facebook too! I do plan on going the entire year, so I can cross that off my bucket list!
