Hi, I'm Shanti. Sassafras, foodie, social media junkie, twentysomething who loves Jesus, people, life, causing trouble and laughing too loud. I've come to the realization that for a girl who lives in technicolor, I sure wear a lot of black. follow me on twitter @shantimedina.

I woke up with that feeling. The “i know today is going to be challenging” feeling, but I couldn’t gear myself up to deal with any sort of challenge. So I fell a little short, which lead to me having constant internal battles until 1 p.m.

My afternoon was lovely. Yes, lovely. I took a half day, changed into a t-shirt, jeans and the new hat, stopped denying my craving for a prosciutto and brie sandwich and drove over to my favorite coffee shop in all of long beach with books and a journal in my bag. As if an iced americano, a divine sandwich combination, a good book and a warm sunny day wasn’t good enough, the extremely attractive, hilarious and witty coffee shop guy flirted with me. Nothing serious, nothing worth pursuing, just a few playful comments and compliments, just enough to make me blush. There is more than one reason why it is my favorite coffee shop in long beach, friends. Then I got my hair cut while my hair dresser, who is so cute it kills me, and i talked about baked goods the entire time.

And in a few minutes I am going to go lay in my comfortable bed and go to sleep with the “tomorrow is going to be less challenging more fantastic and this time next week i’ll be in chicago” feeling.
