Spring Break~
So, I guess my spring break wasn't really all that exciting this year. I didn't go anywhere-no Florida/Mexico/anywhere warm trips for me. Just good 'ole Indiana. haha. But you know what, going home wasn't that bad. Since I wasn't expecting or planning on going anywhere, it didn't really upset me that much that I wasn't on the beach. Yeah, it would have been nice to enjoy 80 degree weather instead of the "warm" 55 degree days in Indiana, but going home and relaxing still felt like a nice and much-needed break. Although, I am kind of upset that the rest of my family is going on a sweet vacation to Disney World without me on their spring break in two weeks! :( So, anyway, I pretty much just hung out with friends and my family, watched movies and did lots of shopping. The first night of spring break was really fun because I celebrated one of my really good friend's 18th birthday. :) Then I chilled at home for a few days, and then I drove up to South Bend in the middle of the week to visit one of my good friends from Purdue. This is when the low point of my week occurred- I got a speeding ticket on the way to visit my friend. :( I was driving North on 31, a long 3 hour drive, and trying to make good time, I was going 80 in a 60. It just so happened that there are a lot of cops on that road, unfortunetely. And this cop was a jerk! I have a perfect driving record (but not because of perfect drivng lol), I've never even been pulled over before, so you'd think he'd give me a warning or at least mark the ticket down a little, but no- he charged me with the full speed. (This is gonna cut into my bank account a little). So you would think that after getting charged with a $135 speeding ticket, I would be a little reluctant to spend money. On the contrary, I used shopping as therapy. :) We did some shopping up in the South Bend area, including an outlet mall where I got some amazing deals! :) Then, she came home with me, and we did some shopping in Indianapolis. So, overall, besides the ticket, it was a pretty good spring break.

I didn't go anywhere for break either! That totally stinks that you got a speeding ticket! I absolutely love driving on the highway and I get a thrill driving past 60 mph. It's probably why my mother is scared of me driving and hardly lets me drive her car. I think it's funny how getting a $135 speeding ticket didn't stop you from shopping. Whenever I feel sad/mad I use shopping as the solution. I totally agree that shopping = good therapy!
I was glad to be home sweet home in Zionsville too! My family is going on a vacation without me too. Yeah, they're going to Canada to ski and apparently the place has a mall with clothes shipped from Paris. That sucks about the ticket! You've survived the ZPD and now's when you get caught.
I stayed at home for break it was great just catching up with old friends and visiting family....
