goin' up to cripple creek

   i have been such a busy bee this whole week! which being busy is nice, but also can get stressful! i've been catching up on homework assignments, stocking up on things i needed at home, found a new place for my internship, interviewing for a seasonal job at a kitchen/home store, designing my own business cards for my blog, and getting over a cold.. did i say anything about school? yes, midterm is right around the corner and that's when all students seem to more focused than at the beginning of the semester/catching up on things. i am so thankful the weekend is here (after 12:30pm for me!), so i can have time to do some course work, relax, go to missouri town, and do a few diy's i have been saving. i am also dog-sitting for my aunt and uncle this weekend. they have two cute, little dogs and i plan on staying at their house all weekend. i think it will be nice to stay somewhere else for just a weekend, they have a wonderful backyard i can sit and read in. 
   this was a park that i used to go to when i was younger. there is a huge creek and lovely views. it's nice to be out in nature, considering i live in the heart of my city now, and it's so peaceful. it is getting chilly here in kansas city, and it's so great. i wish the fall lasted all year around! 
annnnd my hair is extremely dark! just in time for the season.
