Case of the Mondays'

It is so hard to return to school when you spent the weekend in the sun, at the beach. Sometimes I forget how amazing the sunsets are at ocean beach and I got to see two of them this weekend. Call me the luckiest girl in the sunset...

All I want to do right now is go down to the beach and sit in the black sand and feel it on my bare feet. I would love to be at Golden Gate Park sitting in the sun that seems to be hiding behind some fog right now. But its Monday... :(

Just gotta make it through the week before yet another weekend!

I've got dreams to remember you...

What started as an amazing week, ended with an AMAZING weekend.

Bella and Taylor came back to the city on friday, because Bella left her debit card in my wallet from St. Patty's day. We planned on just a quick lunch, but of course, we had to make it an adventure. I took the girls up on the roof for a little bit of scenic relaxation before lunch, and then we set sale for Squatt and Gobble.
After staring at the insanely extensive menu for what felt like an hour, the girls decided on what they were going to grub on, wait for it... in Golden Gate Park. It was a beautiful day and we simply could not pass it up. We drove to the very spot that made me love the park so much just a few weeks ago and spread out a towel.

Words cannot describe how AMAZING it was to be in one of my favorite places with two of my favorite people, on such a beautiful day in San Francisco. The adventure did not end there. We pack up our things and began exploring the park on foot, it is quite a maze.

Eventually we made it back to the car and then we thought it would be nice to go to Candybar, that little desert bar that I wrote about before, needless to say the girls LOVED IT!!!

After we were uncomfortably full, we went back to my house and then ran down to the beach to try and catch the sunset. We missed it, but it was still fun just sitting in the dunes with my best friends laughing till we were crying.

This was when the girls made their decision, THEY ARE GOING TO MOVE TO SF!!! I love that my passion for this city is infecting others. After a quick beach photo shoot, we floated to the land of drugs and bums, Haight and Ashbury, for a little bit of mischief.

After Haight, we returned to my house for some more best friend bonding on the roof, just looking at the lights of the city and listening to the sound of muni.

God, I love this city.

No night at TStreet and 21st would be complete without a little trip to the Shannon to visit my man Johnny, but the girls and I were soo tired, so after a few drinks, we cut out early and went back to the house.

The night could not have been better. We conquered the city. Just the tree of us. I am sooo looking forward to more adventures in this amazing city with these girls!!

And ladies... Dirty Rich will ALWAYS ALWAYS do us dirty!!!!

Nothing but Sunshine

I'm sitting under the blue sky.

Yes blue, it happens sometimes in the wonderful city, and we have been blessed with three AMAZING days in a row. It seems so wrong to go to class on a day like this, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

I just want to take a nice nap on the green grass, but I fear that I would fail to wake up for Anthro. If I could just put my academic life on hold just while the weather is beautiful, I want nothing more than to be in Golden Gate Park right now with the people I love. I don't want the rain to come back, at least not until the winter returns.

The last few days have been some of my best in San Francisco. Saturday night Jessielyn and I celebrated St. Patty's day a little early at the Shannon. The St. Patty's Day Parade, which always occurs the closest Saturday to the 17th, is really just another excuse for the Irish to get wasted before the sun goes down... GOTTA LOVE THEM!!!

Emmett blamed my 7 Gin and Tonic's, and 3 beers, but I blame all the green for my blurred vision. Either way, blurred vision and all, I found a little pot of gold in the shape of Seniore's Hot wings!! YUM!!!!

Looking forward to St. Patty's day on Wednesday... Always a grand time...

The Sunshine Guideline

So, as promised, I am doing my best to write a guideline to living the best life possible in San Francisco. Possibly the MOST important guideline is taking FULL advantage of the sunny days in this AMAZING city.

Yesterday, I had tons of Latin Translations and plenty of Philosophy homework, but I decided to spend the day in the beautiful Golden Gate Park with my beautiful roommates. The Sun was shining and it was impossible to keep a smile off my face. It was a perfect day to lay out in the sun, under the trees, smoking a little green and laughing about nothing. It is those days that I will always remember.

After the sun started to go down, the grumble in our tummies led us to Japantown for some delicious sushi... and a crazy black man who we thought had a gun, but that is a different story.

After sushi, there was a little scream from our our sweet tooth. It said "Ice Cream" so we all pulled out our smart phones and found the nearest shop that could give us what we were craving.

By the time we got home, it was dark and cold, and sure enough, I woke up this morning to rain on my window, so I am thanking the San Francisco Sun gods for blessing me and my city with the day of beauty!!!

Ciao
