My first edition of my every week!!! I love sharing random thoughts & updates about my week and life and thought it’d be fun to start a new weekly post about everything on my heart & mind. Some of it might be deep, some of it might be downright silly, some of it might be the most random thing ever. But, hey, I guess that is kind of how I am in real life, too (lol). Without further a due…
- Lately I am OBSESSED with morning workouts. I used to be more of an afternoon/evening worker-outer (is that a word?) but the past few weeks I have been so into getting up early and starting my day with a workout. I have been reading up a ton on the benefits of working out in the morning and have felt all of them: clear mind, increased energy, better mood, ALL. OF. IT. Guys, if you can even squeeze in a thirty minute walk in the mornings, I promise it’ll feel so good and start your day on the right foot. Also, I feel like I am 100000% more creative when I workout in the mornings… not sure why, but I get a lot of great ideas while power walking on the treadmill (4.0 speed, 6.0 incline).
- Do you ever think about people living in the teeny tiny villages on remote islands? What their life is like, what they eat, what their daily routine looks like, etc. Welcome to a peek into my brain. It is always so crazy to me that this world has over 7 billion people and some of us have only ever lived in one place their whole life and some of us have traveled to a bajillion places and yet we are all human and all live in this world.
- Last week was big/little reveal week for my sorority and oh my gosh, IT WAS SO FUN. We delivered baskets for three days filled with alllll the fun treats & t-shirts & lil gifts and then on the 4th day, we have a big reveal. We decorated my big’s car with tons of pink heart balloons (typical me hehe) and Maddie (my LITTLE!!) ran out and we took tons of pics and were soooo happy & then we went to dinner at HG SPLY Co. (one of my faves in Fort Worth). It was the best. My sweet little is absolutely amazing and I am so blessed. It is so fun to build a relationship amongst your sorority fam and have someone from a different stage of college get to pour into you & love you and then you get to pour into & love each of them. Ugh I just love it. <3
- Quest Cookie Dough bars. I love them. That is all.
- I am trying to do something for personal development everyday, whether it is reading or listening to a podcast or just actively writing out my intentions for my life & day. I firmly believe that God has given us gifts & abilities and has an incredible plan for us, but we have to choose to follow it.
Always,
Elle
P.S.– Here’s me & my sweet Carla in Nicaragua. I miss this precious angel so much. <3
