T Minus 5 Days

T minus 5 days, Thursday, August 9, 2012: "Random Act of Kindness"

In case you haven't noticed, the random act of kindness has probably been my favorite thing to do. Usually, it's pretty simple to complete but gives me a nice boost for the day...so it's actually kind of selfish. But, whatever!

Today, I flew to San Diego to spend the weekend with a bunch of friends. We were celebrating my last weekend in my twenties and it was an absolute blast. I arrived about seven hours before everyone else from the Houston area did and my friend Tara picked me up at the airport. We went and checked out Coronado Island and it was beautiful!

Coronado Island. It's a little nicer than the beaches of Galveston.

One thing I learned about California is that the parking is ridiculous! On Coronado, there were parking meters everywhere and from what I've heard, the parking tickets can be a little high. So, while Tara and I were getting ready to leave, I saw a parking meter with only about 15 minutes left on it. So, I put some money in it and gave them an extra half an hour on the meter.

Of course, the person could have returned two minutes after we left and wondered why the heck they had so much time on the meter still. But, that's fine with me. Challenge complete! Tara and I went and go ourselves a few drinks as a reward :)
