ANGELA B. PAN

So theres no hope for any of these, huh? So weird to have such a warm Christmas this year. 73 degrees! This must be what it’s like to have Christmas down under, eh?

I’ve been waking up for sunrise for years. So much so that it’s hard for me to sleep in anymore. I remember back in college I used to wake up at noon and it’d be the best ever. Now I can’t even sleep past 8a if I tried. Sunday morning was no exception. I actually woke up 10 minutes prior to the time I’d usually wake up for sunrise because I had to go to the bathroom. I looked at the time and was like, “if I’m up anyways, I might as well go take some pictures”. Glad this day didn’t disappoint 🙂

If you have a choice to fly in and out of an airport in the DC area, Id say Reagan National.

First of it is gorgeous. I remember when I was younger and there was only terminal A. Its this old, small building that was not fun at all. However terminal B is soo nice. I love walking through the hallway of windows and getting excited by all the planes that are parked outside.

Second reason to fly out of Reagan, the awesome views at take off and landing. Theres no other way to get an ariel view of the DC area so you might as well as take advantage of the awesomely located airport.

Last reason to fly out of Reagan National- better food options. ‘Nuff said.

It’s so fun to concentrate on the small things. Things you’d normally just walk past or most likely never notice. This little grasshopper guy was just hanging out on this flower stem, drinking water and minding it’s own business. It was pretty cool because he didn’t hop away and just stayed there posing for me.

I have to be honest. I’ve already started hibernating for the winter. It’s been so cold out lately. I hardly want to go outside and get the mail, let alone take Frankie out on a walk. Anyone else experiencing the same?

I picked up a new hobby over the weekend! Actually it’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while now. I’m going to learn how to skateboard 🙂 I had so much fun wakeboarding over the summer but I was not good. Pretty bad actually. But it was a total BLAST. I figured skateboarding could help me get better at it.

So I was over at my brother’s house (like I am every weekend) and noticed my nephews had skatebaords. I asked if I could try and my nephew, Brennan told me that “Skateboarding is sooo 90s”. I told him that I didn’t care and I was going to do it anyways! It was so much fun. Towards the end I was getting too excited by my progress that I fell and hit my elbow and head pretty hard. I just rolled up my sleeves and tried again.

After I left I immediately purchased a skateboard (and helmet) that should be arriving tonight! So excited. More updates on my need for speed soon…
