    Yesterday I missed the bus home to the east campus, so I decided to walk I really enjoyed looking at the oak woodland that's along Inter-Garrison Road, I got exercise, and I picked up the plastic I found along the way.

    On my daily walks, I see the sunset, some beautiful plants around my community, and many small animals. It's a really good experience all around. I usually take a walk whenever I'm anxious or stressed about school, it's a helpful tool to get out of my head and into my body.

    I took the bus to and from school, it was an enjoyable experience! I love listening to music and not having to worry about driving my own car

    I cleaned up the bus stop near my house, and I'm planning on putting some art up but I haven't finished it yet!

    Eating from the farmers market made me feel more like a part of the community here, I also have been eating at the local coffee shop where I work most days. We pick up our food from other local shops nearby.

    Eating veggies I got from the farmers market was really nourishing, I felt better after eating them and it was delicious :)
