Day 24: Mission Completed

Nina Myers: You're lying.
Jack Bauer: Yes, I am. But you're still going to have to trust me. (Day 1: 12:00am-1:00am)
Quote from 24.

A full week has past with the challenge set down by Alec with the use of no repeated clothing or accessory items, no scarfs or hats, and a different pair of shoes everyday. I was 100% successful and I am very proud of that fact.

Today was almost a failure because of my irrational sleeping habits. Completely worth it though! There is nothing more that I love other than watching one of my favorite movies of ALL time, The Boondock Saints, with three lovely people, Reuben, Danielle, and Kieran until 3:00am in the morning. Waking up at 7:15 was my choice which I still find very odd... But running and yoga is good for the soul.

So is volunteering which is something else I did with my day! The Outback is a wonderful area of campus that ever student should visit and be a part of. It is all about sustainability and community, two things that I find very important. Highlights from this event include:
1. The girl who showed up wearing a t-shirt that had construction stripes on it.
2. The boy who randomly decided to join us that was smoking a spliff in the garden.
3. That people in Bellingham think Toms are good gardening shoes. (In all fairness I guess I am in the wrong too because I think Toms are appropriate for climbing down the side of a mountain in Africa and hiking to a rope swing.)

The outfit of the day included the dress worn in tunic form, blue-jeans from Gap, purple wool lace-up Toms, and a cream cover-up from Nordstrom. I also wore my Semester At Sea sweatshirt at some point but... that wasn't really the outfit for the day.

The fall location for the day was going to be in the Outback but I forgot to ask someone to photograph me so... that will be another day. Instead it is a warm indoor area because there is few things better than wrapping up in a blanket in a warm house with a big cup of tea and blogging.

I am going to commission Fiona to take photos more often and I plan on sleeping in very much tomorrow morning. Sleep will have to remain a distant thought as I have three and a half more hours of nannying and a "Choir-Childs" party to go to. (That is not the name at all... Just my personal description of choice.)
