Make a good day!

Scrolling though old posts on the blog Mark and Angel Hack Life: Practical Tips for Productive Living today. I came across this post about ways to make today a good day. It inspired me to write out one of my own ways to have a good day by incorporating the thoughts and ideas impressed upon me by some of those meaningful people who stir me on to do great things! 

One of my friends has always said "Make a great day!" instead of "Have a great day!" This plays of another idea floating around in my brain from school. As we like to say in the COMM world, "reframe" it - which basically means (as it best relates to the aforementioned idea) to change your perspective; or look at your life, circumstance, challenge, etc. in a different way. When a researcher is engaging in reframing that person is figuratively (or even literally) taking a step back and then looking at the same with a different way. In reframing, we call these different viewpoints lens. In reframing, we call these different viewpoints lens. One example could be by using different theories or types of criticisms to investigate the same communication interaction. 

So my point here is that another way make today a good day is to step back and look at the contents of your day with a different light (or lens, tehe).

Texas State University, Theater Building

This building has always been one of my favorites around campus for its beauty and my nostalgia from the many "good times" I had there. It is just gorgeous during the sunset in the spring. Although, I'm sure one could argue most things are quite captivating at sunset. My adopted motto states, "adventure is out there" and this building acquired many a stop along those adventures.

Forget Apathy, Do Something Worth Your While

Everything big that's happened in the world started small- one person, in one place, doing one thing. Actions create contagious effects; once one person sees it and decides to change, then like dominos it will affect everyone else over time. I love the thought that no matter how small one person is, their ripple can surpass all edges of space.

My Eggvocado Experimentation

I tried two versions of the Pinterest inspired Eggvocado to see what I liked best. They both turned out well but I prefer the second one due to more evenly being able to mixed in the spices. Other variation ideas are to put pico or queso on top. I didn't have the supplies on hand to test these but I'm sure they could go well with this dish. Make your own and let me know! Happy Eating! 


Version 1: "Sunny Side Up" Eggvocado (classic version I found on Pinterest)

Version 2: "Scrambled" Eggvocado (my preferred version) You can get more flavor throughout by mixing spices in when you break the yolk.
