Such A Good Day

Today was such a good day. Unexpectedly, which might be why it is even better. Today I woke up  and I had no idea that today would end up being so good. Nothing totally special happened, just a lot of little things that add up to making today so good.

This morning as I walked across campus to work, much earlier than I am usually walking across the parking lot, I saw the cutest little old couple pull into the parking lot. The only car there, they pulled in an chose a parking spot. The husband then got out of the car, walked around, and opened the door for his wife. They were darling! And although it may not seem like a huge deal, to me, it just made my day! So cute!

Also, I have this irrational fear of haircuts. I know I know, you are laughing, shaking your head, thinking I am lying. Except I am not. I hate haircuts. I have had so many bad experiences with haircuts. I am like five years old, except instead of being scared of the doctor or the dentist...it's haircuts. But today I got a haircut. For the first time in a year and a half. And although I was freaking out my hair is now happy and it makes me feel good that it all turned out good. 

Okay I have been working at the bookstore on campus as temp and today they asked me to work one day a week and I am so stoked! I am that much closer to working there permanently and I hope that it all works out. Yay for things looking up!

I Resolve To Continue

This is the time of year when we evaluate our lives. We look at the last 364 days and ponder on our struggles and our triumphs. We look at the person we have become over the last 12 months and we plan to do better in the coming 12. This is the time of year we are dedicated to making a change, and as I sit here thinking back to this time exactly 365 days ago, I am astounded at how far I have come. Almost ashamed of the person I was then and truly proud of the person I am now. For one of the first times in my life I can say that I can see myself becoming the person I want to become. In the last year I have felt sorrow and defeat and loneliness. I have faced struggles and heartache and frustrations. But I have also felt peace. I have felt joy and happiness and love. I set goals and I achieved them. I have had experiences that have taught me so many valuable lessons, and I have met people who have changed me forever. And I am so grateful. And so as we finish out this awfully beautiful year...

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...
