~:[CH4 - Day 336]:~ Beyond Amazing x Infinity

~:[CH4 - Day 336]:~ Beyond Amazing x Infinity
There was something special in the air today but I knew it would be a crazy busy day. I had a lot of things setup for today for awhile and things kind of fell into place. After hearing some awesome speeches and covering a good amount of material, I ate a delicious lunch that Sunny brought for me and snapped the photos of my senior XCers. It was great to see most of them together and always is a bit nostalgic. After class, I headed out to the Broad for my afternoon reservation. Hearing of the queue to get into the infinity room, I headed over early and got in at the on-site entry. When trying to add my name to the queue, I was told, it was full. I ended up checking back later and it opened up and so I added my name! After touring the museum, I grabbed a quick lunch at Lemonade at MOCA before heading back. The 95 minute wait soon became about half that with no line at the infinity room. You get 45 seconds in the room and while I got lost in the beauty of the room and soaked it all in, I did end up getting a picture of me in the room. It was amazing how something like that is so amazing, but the best inspiration was yet to come. After stopping at Salt & Straws to get some avocado and strawberry sherberts, sampling mincemeat pie, and also getting a little taste of the lavender and egg nog, I made my drop off and then headed to the meeting of the inspirational and motivational minds. I wasn't sure that this meeting was going to happen, but I am so glad that it did. Tonight helped me realize how each of us has our own stories and while things may seem great, we all have our struggles that we must deal with and we each do it in our own way; however, we have a collection of those we have grown to trust and love to be there for us. I soaked in so much and was so amazed at how I began to feel as the night went on. I cannot even describe the feeling I had at the end of the night, but it definitely felt like I was ready to take on the world "to infinity and beyond." Even after I got home, I had a great moment with my parents before I headed off to work, but as I reflect on the day, I just cannot even tell you how wonderful today was and how it compares to some of the best days in my life. Things just fell into place and reminded me that things don't just fall into place by accident, but that everything happens for a reason and everyone we encounter in our life is there to impact us in some way, shape or form. Today solidified that I have been impacted for the better.
