my loving parents half invited me to go with them to Glacier National Park and i accepted. it was awesome seeing the night sky, wildlife, and natural scenery but the best part was seeing my parents go somewhere they’ve always wanted to. Glacier was filled with people nearing death - there was a sea of white hair on all the easy trails and in the lodge lobbies. i did have to sneak into many hotels and campsites and sleep on the ground but that only added to the experience of witnessing a bunch of old people live their lives.

It’s sooo cute and fun and feels just like when you were a kid but better because you are old enough to drive your own jet ski 🥹 also makes your parents happy 😭

six friends and i hiked this triple waterfall gem the day before graduation and it will be a memory i cherish forever!!
highlights:
- met the cutest pomeranian named kai who loved belly rubs
- sat on a log and smoked with our feet in the water (fire water and air, youre literally becoming the elements)
- we saw a rainbow which i think meant something
- the sun was OUT
- got pizza and ice cream after in this small in between town
- the drive back home was fragrant with rain and we got to see a double rainbow!!
lowlights:
- drove through a massive butterfly zone and killed SO MANY BUTTERFLIES. butterfly massacre
- wore the wrong shoes (sandals bc i forgot to swap shoes before)
- almost lost my shoes in the waterfall
- right thigh has been sore for days (i’m not sure what i did to it)
- 3/7 of us remembered to bring water for this ~3 mile hike
- had to scrub bathroom walls and pack up my room when i got home

and every family trip growing was always centered around intense hiking and it was frustrating for me as a teen girl who just wanted to like be normal. I definitely appreciate it now that I’m older but I’m kind of more of a gentle nature walk person these days

the crisp bubbles help me stay awake? and healthier than soda? there’s no science to back this just my own experience.

i lived in the mission for a year and sometimes i forget that! Ty for reminding me.
- taking a stroll at crissy fields. preferably on a sunny day. the view of the bay and bridge is awesome and really sells the im in san francisco
- if you want to splurge on eats please go to Zuni Cafe! It’s classy California chic. order a martini and a pile of french fries if you’re not up for a full meal
- for a fun drink there’s true laurel and any drink pairs with their patty melt (would also recommend just the patty melt🤓)
- my old dive haunt was the 500 club + they have a photo booth
- garden creamery has a rotational / seasonal ice cream menu that’s always yummy. grab a scoop and walk to dolores park
- the tea leaf salad!! at Burma Superstar
- catch a movie at the Roxie they have awesome programming
- don’t be afraid to walk up some hills. some random neighborhoods can have epic views
i hope you have a great trip 🫶
