Hello! How was your weekend? I did one of my favorite things this weekend…
Jimmy and I went ice skating! I love, love, love ice skating. People in my life who are close to me think it’s funny that I like ice skating because I dislike being cold and I usually hate moving at fast speeds (in vehicles, etc.), but I love ice skating super fast like a speedskater.
Jimmy even tied my skates for me. What a gem.
I also attended Pittsburgh World of Wheels this weekend. Jimmy loves cars as much as I love ice skating, so we both had an enjoyable weekend. Some of the cars from the Batman movie were at the show because parts of the movie were filmed in Pittsburgh. 
I just had to take some pictures of Pittsburgh because the view from the convention center was nice. This photo was taken on my iPhone with a fisheye lens. I love photography.

Sorry I haven’t been blogging as much. Life is just busy lately!
School is pretty tough this semester, but it’s a good tough. I’m in a lot of classes for my specific major (journalism), so I have been learning about things that will hopefully apply to my future career… whatever that will be.. haha.
I have been spending a lot of time studying, learning, snacking, running, and stretching. I have found that running is such a stress reliever from school work. I love to just zone out on a run and think of nothing and everything at the same time.

So, life is busy, but it may become even more busy because today I have an interview for a possible internship that I’m really, really excited about.
I’ve been praying about it–not that I will get the internship–but that I will be happy with whatever is in God’s plan for me.
Sometimes I think about all of the things I have to do, and it really makes me miss the calmness of winter break, but it makes me think about Ecclesiastes 3, and how there is a season for everything in life. That chapter in the Bible really comforts me!

Well, I’m going to get started on some homework and hope that the ice covering the streets of Pittsburgh has melted by the time I have to leave for school!!
Have a great day!
Living My Full Life 
Ah I love ice skating!
Running is a great stress reliever. A lot of people don’t believe me but don’t knock it until you try it!
Love that picture of the city.. Love that place for sure! and jealous of the batman car! Best wishes with the internship 🙂
Glad you were able to go ice skating. I like it a lot too (which is surprising considering I’m so clumsy). Life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I enjoy your updates but I love that you are enjoying life and the semester more. Are you training for anything right now with your running or running for the pure enjoyment? (I am enjoying the latter myself right now…pure awesome).
I’m not training for anything now… just keeping up my base! It’s just so cold that I don’t even want to think about races haha. I am loving the pure enjoyment as well. Hopefully I’ll be fresh for some spring 5ks/10ks/halfs!
Love to hear that!
“it’s funny that I like ice skating because I dislike being cold and I usually hate moving at fast speeds”
ha! I’m the same way….except I don’t like ice skating! In addition to disliking the cold and fast speeds, I also dislike falling down 😛
Did you skate at PPG? I haven’t been ice skating in awhile, but when I do, I’m always so paranoid I’m going to break a bone or something (I fall down A LOT, haha). But I always end up having a great time though! I’m glad to hear you and Jimmy had a great weekend!
P.S. I hope the roads were clear for your drive to school. Can’t it just be spring already?!?!
No, I didn’t skate at PPG… I wish! It’s so fun there! I totally thought I was going to break my arm yesterday. I was like, “Jimmy… I just have this feeling I will break my arm today. He was like, “Don’t say that!!” Haha.
I leave for campus at 3p.m., so hopefully the roads will be clear. It’s been warming up a little! When are you flying to your dad’s?!
Haha, that sounds just like me before I go skating! I am flying in on Thursday…I’m crossing my fingers that the higher temps will stick around for awhile!
Studying and stretching… two things I never do but really should. I’m so jealous you went ice skating! And running- obviously you know my feelings on that haha
I love your blog because you are so down to earth. You are such a great Christian and I really admire that. I too agree that God has a plan for everything and everyone. And rather than worrying about what’s going to happen, trusting in God will always comfort you. 🙂
Very nice. 🙂
Awww, you just made my day!! Thank you for the sweet comment! ❤
How have the stomach issue been Allie?! Hope they’re all resolved for you!
Ah the tummy troubles… I’m going to have to do a post on that soon!
i haven’t gone ice skating in ages, so jealous! I bet you guys had a blast.
I haven’t been ice-skating in ‘forever’ but I used to love doing it!!! 🙂 And you’re right… you never know what God has in store for you, when it comes to the internship or even when it comes to the career that follows! But if you wait for His guidance and direction, you can be sure that it will be amazing!! 🙂
Good luck on your interview!
I used to love ice skating when I was a kid – it was even a birthday party one year! I used to go to North Park – have you been? Haven’t gone in ages.
I used to LOVE ice skating. Maybe I’ll go do that next weekend…
Good luck in the interview!
Good luck! Oh nevermind you need no luck. You just need to show up and Go with God.
Yay Pittsburgh view photo!!! Love that city of yours 😀
My husband would LOVE to go to a car event like that.
I’ve been meaning to go skating lately! Such a good idea for a date night.
I love ice skating too! We went a few years ago for Valentine’s Day but haven’t done it since!
Aww, ice skating is such fun! Glad you got to go! 🙂
I haven’t been ice skating in forever! And nice Batmobile photos!
