I got a Pocket full of Nothing

I got a Pocket full of Nothing

This week started like any other week filled with school on school. Although it would be a short week due to the holidays it would be a great week. My hiking shoes came in the mail just in time for my weekend of hiking the great Alps. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday came and went. But Thursday night was spent on the town with the girls. Going to a Jazz concert and talking over a candle lit dinner of sweet potato fries. How typical of me right?  On Friday Shannon, Brynn, and I flew out for out wilderness wanderlust adventure in Switzerland. Switzerland more like a BOUJEELAND. Everything was super expensive, for example train station Chinese food appetizers of four spring rolls cost 20 franks which changes to 20 dollars. We were in over our heads for the expenses to come. Although we were going hiking which is usually a cheap and fun activity for all. For us it was just another hit to the wallet, bank account and savings. Nothing in this world is ever free, but one day it might. But Good Golly Miss MOLLY!! It cost 80 euro for a day trip with in Zurich.  Then we found out that the ticket we bought didn’t even cover the whole mountain. We ended up just eating lunch meats and cheese for every meal. Then we spent the next day buying less expensive tickets because we learned our lesson. We walked in snow up to our knees, and hiked till our feet fell off. I wouldn’t trade my 2018 Easter break for anything in the world. It was nice to recenter our life before the finals and all the goodbyes to come the following weeks. As my lovely mother reminded me that it was April and my European adventures coming to an end. Did I mention all the cows!! There were so many, and it was beautiful. I Have learned that I love cows so much but this fascination just recently started. MOO-VVEEE over my herd and I are coming through. We are Udderly adorable so don’t flake on us. Alright I am done now, Im all out of puns and my pockets are longer filled with money….Because I am broke.

XOXO,
