Who knew a facebook status could be so insightful?
I read a friend's Facebook status the other day and it has stuck with me.
"Any strength when overdone becomes a weakness"
How perfect is that? Some of the things I pride myself on the most might actually be my weaknesses.
My best example is friendship. You can be such a good friend to someone that you become a doormat. Have you ever been too good of a friend to someone that they take you for granted? In the past few months my life has significantly changed because of the end of a friendship? (I'm not sure what to call it) with someone that I considered to be one of my best friends. With the understanding that everyone makes mistakes, I can look back and say that overall I was a great friend. I was thoughtful, caring, respectful, fun to be around, loyal and honest. What else could you ask for? The friendship ended because I felt that I was being mistreated.
This quote made me think that maybe I was too good of a friend. Maybe I was too much of each of these things that my friendship lost its value. That this person thought they could be as mean and hurtful as they wanted and there would be no consequences. Now when I meet new people and start to form friendships, I am hesitant to give 100% in fear that I am giving too much. I want friendship to be one of my strengths and never a weakness.

Bucket List
I made a countdown and I have three months left of college. What the hell? Looking back, I feel that have done a lot of exploring in the past four years. I spent most of my time in college with some Northern California natives that showed me the ropes. Even better, one of them was a Penngrove native so he really knows his way around the area. After many day trips to San Francisco, Sacramento, Santa Cruz, and other random cities I have made a bucket list. My bucket list consists of all the things I have wanted to do since I moved here from Southern California and have yet to accomplish. My roommates and I are making it our mission to cross each thing off the list.
Bucket List:
1. Climb Mt. Tamalpais
2. Spend the night/ go dancing in San Francisco
3. Wine Tasting
4. Take the larkspur ferry to a Giants game
5.Walk the Golden Gate
6.Drive down Lombard

Day #2
Cass taught me how to make cake balls. They are delicious and I wouldn't be surprised if they became the new cupcake. We made chocolate covered balls too!
Directions
- Prepare the cake mix according to package directions using any of the recommended pan sizes. When cake is done, crumble while warm into a large bowl, and stir in the frosting until well blended.
- Use a melon baller or small scoop to form balls of the cake mixture. Place in freezer for two hours.
- Melt chocolate coating in a glass bowl in the microwave, or in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
- Dip the balls in chocolate using a toothpick or fork to hold them. Place on waxed paper to set.
- Decorate and freeze for an additional two hours!
