After seemingly endless grueling weeks leading up to spring break, it is finally here. Thank goodness! My life has seemed like a fairytale, full of diamond rings, fantastic food, great friends, and sleeping till I feel like it. Cheesy as it sounds, teaching is definitely my true calling that I am thrilled to have found. But can we talk about the perks? After this 9 days off, I have a few months and then I get off for an entire summer. So fairytale life, by all means, please continue!

Durham, meet the young and fresh.

Seedlings I am nurturing along for my kids. Dedication.

Cafe Arancia. Scratch Bakery. Orangey delight.

Clearly I’m delighted. 80 degree weather. Slight sunburn. H&M deals. Good day.

photo op? cue sassy face.

Real World: I am truly sorry you do not get spring and summer breaks. Play hookey. Enjoy the day. The world of sunshine and doughnut muffins with gingham wearing friends is out there waiting for you. All you have to do is SKIP. THAT. JOB.

I highly recommend it.
