Denver Road Trip - Spring Break 2018

-
Initially I thought I wouldn't be doing anything for spring break (pathetic, I know) but then I asked my friend if he wanted to take a road trip to Denver Colorado. Surprisingly he agreed, and so we left on the first Sunday of spring break. The ride there was absolutely amazing, except for Nebraska which is as flat a pancake. We got to Denver at roughly 10 AM on Monday. That was when our adventure started. We went downtown for most of Monday, which was absolutely amazing. Everything is so new there, and plus Denver is also the capital of Colorado, so obviously we got to see capitol hill. Tuesday we hit up most of the museums and even the botanic gardens. That day was just great. There were so many things to do and so little time. On Wednesday we finally went up to the Rockies. We went to Evergreen Colorado for lunch, which was delicious. After that, we got stuck in snow at nearly 10,000 feet on a dirt road with no cell service. That was such a fuuuun time. :) On our last day, Thursday, we went back up to the mountains and visited red rock amphitheater, which was just stunning. And to end off the trip we went to Boulder, Colorado. On Friday we got up at 5 am to leave. The sunrise was breathtaking. I actually tried not to cry when I saw the mountains getting smaller and smaller. It just felt right being there. All in all the trip was an amazing experience that I will never forget. Colorado is my home and I shall return. (And yes I took that picture :))

Yes Theory

I have been a fan of Yes Theory for some time now. They are a group of guys from around the world that do things that are uncomfortable. In fact, their motto is "Seek Discomfort" and it is absolutely brilliant. It has actually helped me with my social anxiety to an extent. Granted I still can't go up to a random person and spark up a conversation. Baby steps right? Anyways, so Yes Theory is a pretty popular YouTube channel that has gained a lot of ground in the past few months. In the video below, they ask totally random people if they want to go skydiving with them. Some people actually say Yes and go on an adventure with them, as complete strangers. I think I would instantly say Yes if they came up to me asking to do something crazy. I want to seek discomfort.

Country Music

Country Music, when you hear those two words you may think of cheesy repetitive songs that are annoying. But in my opinion you'd be wrong, because there's just something about it that just calls out to me, it's one of the reasons why Country is my most listened to genre. As you can see in the picture below my Top 5 Artists from 2017 are all Country, and I'm assuming for 2018 the trend will be the same, only with a lot more minutes of listen time. I've actually changed a lot of my friends minds about country, they use to hate it and now they surprisingly like it. I'd recommend at least trying it (start with my top artists) and if you like it then great, but if you don't then that's fine too.

Movie Review | Avengers: Infinity War

This movie is going to be hard to review without any spoilers but I will attempt to. Avengers: Infinity War starts out right where Thor: Ragnarok ended which is just awesome. The two movies connect so well, so if you haven't seen Thor: Ragnarok I recommend watching it because it has some important backstory to Avengers: Infinity War. The movie is very long but for obvious reasons, it has been 10 years in the making. It brought together most of the Marvel Cinematic Universe into one movie. It is an epic film that is worth multiple watches in the theatre. The cliffhanger at the end ties into a new Hero whose movie will come out March 6, 2019. The next Avengers movie will arrive in theatres on May 9th, 2019. I recommend watching this movie at least once while it's in theatres. My rating is 10/10.
