There's gotta be more than this...

So it has been about 10 days since I returned from Hawaii and I still want to go back. Or just be anywhere than where I am now. This is not a new feeling for me, I often get this restless, 'I want to change my life' feeling after I go visit some place new. It happened after New Orleans, Denver, and now, Honolulu. It just reaffirms my desire to move and venture out into the world, as scary as that can be for me to think about.

Part of what I am missing...

I hate that I feel this way about where I am right now in life. Maybe it's my quarter-life crisis or I guess maybe I am just ready for a change and it can't come soon enough. I just want to be happy with where I am and feel like I am doing something productive to live the life I want and desire.

But on the upside, life is not so terribly bad. Despite my restlessness, I have a lot to be appreciative about. Especially, my new niece. She is wonderful and adorable, even though she isn't even a week old. I am excited to see her grow and to be a part of her life. I can't wait to see how she views the world and I will hopefully have positive influence on her. I want to be that fun aunt that comes to visit and brings the most awesome gifts and is admired. I just want to be there for her if she ever needs me.

Overall, winter break was good to me and probably one of the best times of my life. I got to see and experience so many new things. So even though I am back in my dull and monotonous life, every now and then a great opportunity comes by and and I am always ready to jump on and enjoy the ride.
