Hey everyone! Happy Thursday! Yesterday was pretty awesome, I got the opportunity to go to an event and hear Colin Powell speak about leadership. I normally get pretty bored at these kinds of things (and he sure talked for a while) but honestly, I was captivated. He is a very intelligent man who really has a way with people and connecting to everyone. It was amazing to hear him speak and many of the tips that he had, and stories that he told from his own life!
His book is called It Worked For Me: In Life and Leadership, and I think I might see if it’s in the library!
But enough about Wednesday, today is Thursday, which means it’s time for some more Thursday Thoughts! Here we go:

1. Still looking for roommates for the Healthy Living Summit! I have one girl ready to go, so we’re hoping to find two more! Great way to save money AND make some awesome new friends. Send me an e-mail if you’re going to HLS and interested!
2. I’m seriously considering attempting to make some sort of sushi roll. It can’t be that hard… right? Knocking on wood right now…
3. How cute is this?!?!? Not something I’d do in the apartment I’m renting since I’ll be out of here in a year, but definitely something to keep in mind for the future. A great way to add a color pop to your ceiling!
4. I saw this and it totally made me laugh. I tend to sweat… a lot. And so now I know I’m not sweating, I’m just exuding liquid awesome!
5. How cute is this bracelet?!? I’m more of a gold person than silver, and I think this is so simple but pretty! Definitely my style.
6. Um, yes please?!? I’ve been craving quesadillas, unfortunately when I went to Whole Foods this weekend they were all out of the brown rice tortillas I get! Ahhhh upsetting.
7. I cannot find Zico’s chocolate coconut water. I have been wanting to try it FOREVER, but whenever I’m in a store that sells it they never seem to have the chocolate flavor! I’m pretty sure they have it at Trader Joes, I completely forgot to look on Sunday when I went (because it was crazy crowded…) so I’ll have to keep trying!
8. I KICKED BUTT on my run yesterday! It was 4 miles and supposed to be run at a 9:00 min/mile pace. I’d been running outside around 9:30 at best, so I was pretty nervous and doubted myself that I would be able to keep that pace without a treadmill. But guess what?! I’m sure you can guess… I killed that pace! I ran 4 miles with an average pace of 8:46 min.mile! I’m not going to say that last mile was pretty… but I was so proud of myself for pushing it! I miss that feeling!
9. Don’t forget to donate to my fundraising for Girls on the Run! You can read more about it here, or go to my donation website here. Even $5 would make a world of difference!
What food cravings have you been having lately?
Who is someone you were impressed with when you heard them speak?
