Instead of New Year's resolutions, (which I honestly think are so socially constructed that they are bound to not be fulfilled, as silly as that sounds) I decided I would make summer resolutions! Mainly because I think I'll now actually have time to fulfill them...
They are the following:
1) Keep up on this blog
2) Work-out/be active outside for three hours a week
3) Learn my part of The First Lady for the Act II of the Magic Flute!
That's my starting point, but I'm bound to add to it.
So, as for my things I'm excited for...
Walking my dog! He's a great walk companion, and its a wonderful way to enjoy the sun/Gasworks Park/hiking.
High-waisted bikinis! They are so flattering to so many different body types, not to mention a great retro throwback. This particular one is from Anthropologie.

So happy to be home in the California sunshine!! After a severe case of S.A.D. from the beautiful (yet undeniably rainy) Pacific Northwest, I am so excited for summer to be here. It's been in the 70s the whole time I've been home so far, and I'm loving every minute of it. Some things I'm especially excited for are...
This bicycle that my boyfriend gave me. It folds up, so I can take it anywhere! And I'm beyond excited to be able to cruise around with him finally.
As far as fashion goes, I love summer for the shoes. Right now, I'm on a hunt for beautiful nude wedges or sandals like these from Seychelles. They're called "Purr". Mm, purrrrrrr indeed!
As far as I'm concerned, trees exist to be climbed and people exist to be loved. I will be doing both this summer and always. :)

Although I am settling into summer quite nicely I still have the occasional rush of anxiety that generally accompanies the school year :) Sitka has treated me to a few sunny, warm days, which I took advantage of by gardening in the backyard. A trip to the nursery resulted in 13 new plants for our hillside garden, as well as the beginnings of what will be our strawberry patch.
I have also been working away at the Sitka Fine Arts Camp, getting ready for the arrival of faculty, staff, counselors and students.
Here are a few things that I am looking forward to this summer:
Days like this spent in the warm Alaskan sun
SFAC
Being reunited with my whole family for my brother's wedding
Getting to travel to China with some of my very favorite people!
