Such A Stellar Day!

Okay listen.
My life has been pretty crazy these last few weeky-weeks! I am exhausted constantly, and I feel like I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut clean off! Between packing and moving and unpacking and school and work and homework times a trillion (yes I really do have homework already...I told you crazy!) things have been less than relaxing the last few weeks.
My new roommates are all super nice, however I feel like such a bum because most of the time I just do homework instead of being able to play and get to know them better! Even yesterday when we didn't have school our plans got foiled when it decided to rain on us. Curses!
WELL today after class one of my neighbors (and good friend) finally was able to go up the canyon a ways for rock climbing! He's pretty much an expert and has been wanting us to go for a while now, and finally we were able to go! And let me tell you, it was great! I got to meet some new people, get closer to people I already knew, and try new things (which I love!) I attempted 2 different climbs, one I completed and the other I got half way up! It doesn't sound that cool but trust me, it was super hard and I felt pretty accomplished at the end of the day. And I loved it! I had so much fun and I would love love love to go again and get better at it!
After that we just got some food and went home. I met my roommate's dad and he was super nice, and then I got cleaned up and ready for bed.
I went back to my neighbor's house and talked with another one of the guys next door, another great friend of mine. I wasn't really expecting anything, but I certainly wasn't expecting us to talk for as long as we did. It was great. We talked about anything and everything, and can I just say, I am so stinkin' grateful for this kid! I seriously would do anything for him and I hope he knows that! I missed him over the summer and it was so good to finally feel like we were able to catch up and just talk! I love it! He's a pretty great friend.
Needless to say, this ordinary Tuesday turned into a pretty great day! Nothing too crazy, but definitely something I am grateful for.
So thanks friends, you're pretty awesome, and I'm pretty lucky.

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday".  Someday when I have more money, or

Every Day Is A Battle

Every day is a battle. Some days I win and some days I lay my head down at night and think "I will try again tomorrow." Life is hard and it was meant to be that way. But even with that knowledge and understanding it is still sometimes a struggle to get through. I am at the point where everything is bothering me. And it is little stupid things and the worst part is that in the back of my head I know that I am being ridiculous. I know that I am over reacting and that I should not be so irritated by these things. But I am. I am bothered by stupid little things. And I don't really know what to do to make that go away. I don't want to push away these people in my life because they are good people. But at the same time I get so angry when I am there and I just cant figure it out. School is crazy right now, and I just started working again, which is great but also rough because that is one more thing I need to worry about. I have a great group of friends that I love spending
