Easter bunnies

Hellooo...I am exhausted today. This weekend flew by and was far too fast for my liking. On Friday I hopped on a plane to NY to go home for Easter. I got home around 8:30, grabbed some food, then went out for a night on the town with some friends. I had a lot of fun but drank way too many bud lights. Luckily I avoided 4 am Taco Bell, but it was a close one.

On Saturday I woke up bright and early and grabbed breakfast with a few of my girlfriends. Afterwards I went to the movies with my sisters to see the Hunger Games. The movie was great, but I don't really get all the hype. I read the Hunger Games (quickly) last year and was excited about the movie, but didn't rush to see it. The series doesn't compare to Harry Potter or even Twilight (which I'm not a fan of), and I just don't get the big deal. It's not like people read the first book and were anxiously awaiting the second and third. Every single person I know read all 3 books at once, in a matter of like two weeks. I don't know why this is annoying me but it just is lately.

After the movies we came home and had some chinese food for dinner. I ate wayyyy too much. Then we colored eggs! I love Easter and have missed it the past 2 years. Here's a before and after shot:



Next we made these adorable cupcakes. How cute are they!?


The next day started early with opening baskets and an egg hunt! There were 4 of us (ages 15, 23, 25 and 28 mind you) and it got pretty competitive! I did not win :(

We had the family over to my house and had some delicious food, which I forgot to take pictures of. I still feel full from this weekend.

I took an 11pm flight back to Boston and am now sitting at work like a zombie. I'm so tiredddddddd ah!!!

This short and quick weekend at home did not quench my homesickness. Even though Boston isn't THAT far from New York, it's still hard not being close to my family. It's really making me think about my future and where I want to be. I'm so torn. My little sister will be going to college soon and I feel like I've missed a lot. For now I'm just going to start making visiting home a priority. When I go home only for holidays I find that I struggle the whole time to balance between friends and family. If I just went home more often I wouldn't feel so desperate to squeeze everyone in. So that's that.

I have the B.A.A 5k this weekend and it's going to suck. I am going to a beer summit the day before and will probably be exhausted and hungover, great.

I'm quite the debbie downer today, lo siento.
