Week 1 Personal Reflection

Last week was my sister's 21st birthday.  Since I wasn't going to be able to spend it with her since she lives in Omaha, I wanted to send her something really special.  However, between having no free time to go shopping and not having any extra money to spend in the first place, I had no idea what I was going to do for her.  The night before her birthday, I still hadn't sent her anything.  As I was searching my brain for creative ideas, that's when I remembered the cheesy coloring book my mom had sent me in a care package for "stress relief".  So, I did what all 18-year-olds in college do and I started coloring a picture.  It was a Hello Kitty coloring book, (yes, I know, very mature), and the picture I was coloring was a picture of a cat and a lamb dressed in adorable dresses and holding hands because they were best friends.  My sister and I are close, so my goal was for it to represent us.  After I was done, I wrote a message on it, attached a hand written letter, and sent it in the mail.  My last minute birthday card turned out to be a success, because my sister absolutely loved it.
