Phoenix!

Good evening fellow bloggers and welcome back to my page! What a weekend it has been and we have a lot of things to cover so here it goes. Well, first off I spent the weekend in Phoenix with my boyfriend, Jaycee. The weather was so nice and I finally got to bust out my flip slops, tank tops, and shorts while all my winter clothing gear got left at home. It was so nice to be in the valley of the sun! We started the weekend by going to watch a softball game where the ASU Sun Devils took on Central Connecticut, and let me tell you it’s always nice to watch ASU softball dominate on the field. The next day Jaycee took me to one of his track meets and after that we hit up the mall and shopped till we dropped. Later on that night after some a delicious dinner at Olive Garden, Jaycee and I went to his aunt’s house to play some prize bingo. I’ll just say the next time I play bingo, I’m hitting up the casino because I was on fire! We won so many prizes ranging from a liter of mountain dew to some bubbles, and even nail polish! Was a fun night with him and his family.

Then on Sunday, after a nice breakfast with my mom and dad, Jaycee took me to his old neighborhood where he used to live. As we were heading to the housing complex I noticed a really nice fountain that decorated the entrance into the neighborhood. As I looked at it I couldn’t help but think “How can people in other countries be so desperate for clean water just so they can live, while over here we just have water fountains anywhere and just use water for show.” I feel like we take the simple freedom of having water anytime we want for granted. People in other countries have to travel far to get clean water and probably can only get a few gallons at a time. Maybe in some countries, they aren’t even allowed to get water because of their race or political belief, yet we take it all for granted and act so naïve sometimes about simple things. It made me very thankful for the freedoms we have and what we are allowed to do. We are very lucky to have water whenever we want. It’s weird how a simple thing like access to water can lead to such a serious topic. I just think that we should be more thankful about all the freedoms and opportunity we are allowed to have here. I’ll end this blog here on this note. The next time you just go swimming or maybe just go out for a fun night to hang with friends, just be appreciative of everything we’re allowed to do and have. With that until next time KB signing out!
