Saturday Day in the Life // Grocery Haul + Bake with me!

TEP Blog Takeover (Week 9 Day 1)

Saturday March 23, 2019

Today I got to sleep in for the first time in a while. I went to Kimball because my sister is a freshman at Holy Cross at she has guest swipes. We both got omelets! My favorite omelet has feta cheese, tomato, spinach, and onion in it. I have not been to Kimball in months so it was fun to catch up with my sister and spend the morning together.

My dad and brother were in Worcester today and surprised my sister and I with Starbucks coffee. It was so sweet of them!

Love my little sis!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To do lists are a must for a busy day.

Then, I went back to my apartment and did some laundry. I like doing my laundry on the weekends because it makes the rest of the week so much easier. My friends and I did some homework in a study room in our apartment. I was super productive and got everything but two things done on my to do list. 

 

The views from my apartment are the best.
They were so fluffy and delicious 🙂

I baked these gluten free chocolate chip muffins for a special day that I will blog about tomorrow! The secret ingredient is coconut oil instead of butter.

 

 

 

 

My friends all met up at 6:30 PM at Chipotle. I got a bowl with lettuce, brown and white rice, cheese, mild salsa, and sour cream. So yummy!

We also went grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s.
I got all of this stuff for $40! Talk about a bargain.

The last thing I did today was meal prep for this week. I love making my salads and washing all of my fruit ahead of time because it saves me so much time in the mornings.

Meal prepping is my favorite!

People who have inspired me!

Jailene’s third blog!

As mentioned in my previous blog, I am extremely lucky to have such amazing people in my life. Every person that I have interacted with in my life has impacted my life in a certain way. So, for today, I wanted to talk a bit about the people who have influenced me the most!

My sissy!

My sister, Dayannara, has influenced my life in hundreds of different ways. She is just a couple years older than me and has graduated from MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), graduated from Air Force ROTC, and has competed in several body building competitions! She is currently living in Arizona working as an airplane mechanic, getting her masters from Columbia University, as well as continuing her journey in the body building world!

I get to look up to such an extraordinary person who has already accomplished so much. She is so much more than just a sister; she is my biggest supporter, my best friend, and my idol. In my education experience, she always encouraged me to try my best and to never give up (sappy, but true!). I am grateful for the amount of love and encouragement that my sister provides.

Always there for me <3
Graduating from Air Force!
Nationals!

 

The rest of my family!

I have the most incredible and supportive family. Everyone has taught me something different that I have carried with me through my educational experience!

Love you guys! (Dad, mom, sister, me, and brother)
My dad is the funniest person I know. He has taught me to always smile and not take life so seriously (this is our Belichick face)
Being the youngest sister is the best, I get to look up to two incredible women!

Besides family…

I have had amazing teachers in my experience at Worcester Public Schools. At first, I thought I was just inspired to do well in school. However, they actually inspired me to be just like them and become a teacher!

Be thankful for those people in your life who encourage you to go above and beyond! You are NEVER alone.

Who is someone that has inspired your life?
