Friday...and a Busy Weekend Ahead!

This week has gone by much faster than the previous two weeks have - not sure why, but Im really not going to complain about it :) It's Friday and that's awesome!

I just got back from having some delicious pizza and an incredibly yummy chocolate cookie sundae...let's just say that the cookie was cooked about 1/2 way (and they cooked it in the pizza oven/fire!!!). I'm adjusting into my afternoon working, and am looking forward to the end of the day.

I have a busy weekend ahead of me, too. Tonight we have practice (nationals is next week!) from 7-930pm, which isn't too late - hooray! Then tomorrow I'm getting my skates sharpened, probably watching the hockey game, and going to a friends beer and cheese pairing party - one that probably ends w/ a good session of rockband. I'm sure I'll squeak a nap in there somewhere - I usually do.

Sunday is pretty full, too. I am going to go watch another little team in the area's send-off for nationals. It's the same organization that I skated for when I was younger, so I like to go back and support them - this is also the first time in like 12 years that a team from the organization has qualified for nationals, which is just super exciting!

Then Sunday evening we have our own send-off for family and friends - followed by practice. My mom should be coming to watch, and is either dragging along my brother or my dad...we'll see.

Why the Name?

I'm guessing that it is going to take me a little while to get into the groove of posting 'interesting' memes here. I'm currently trying to think of something worthwhile, but I seem to be coming up short. I suppose I can discuss why my space is called 'Life is Change'.


The phrase originated, in my life anyway, from one of my skating coaches back in middle school or very early high school. We had a skating program that was consistently changed and modified from the beginning of the season to the end. Every time we'd question why we were having all these changes, she'd respond with 'Life is Change'. It sort of became that teams mantra. One day she surprised the entire team with t-shirts with our logo and that phrase on it. It was cherished by all.


I'm not sure where that shirt is today, but I do vividly remember it and it's little catchphrase. I am currently a twenty-something who is about to experience some change of my own, and while thinking of a blog title or 'name' I thought it was fitting. I hope to express some of lifes little changes here on my blog, and hopefully it'll begin to take on a life of it's own. No guarantees.


I'm going to have to learn how to format and make it my own, but until then, it's good enough.

I found this photo one day while google searching 'June'. It adds a dash of color. I hope to start getting some of my own photos up here...appears to be very easy.

Hello There

Welcome to my space!
I have tried my hands many times at blogging, but have never seen a blog past more than a month or two. I really want to make this work, but we'll see how it goes. I have a lot of good concepts in my head, yet sometimes I just get too busy or lazy to translate them to 'print'.

So, C'mon, Let's Go!
