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!

UPDATE

UPDATE: saying yes is hard, sometimes (a lot of times) I choose sleep over clean hair, and these people make my heart oh so happy! As I continue to give fully to my job and to the people in my life, I continue to learn more and more that these humans give me more than I could ever give them.  And that is completely worth it. 

I Sort Of Hate Making Decisions About Life.

Sometimes I have to make decisions about my life. And those decisions are hard and they scare me and I don't know what to do. Sometimes I think I have an answer and then a few days later I am doubting and second guessing everything that I think I  have figured out. It's so not cool. And above all I can't handle that fact that I don't know what I am supposed to do! How do I figure this out? How do I know if I am making the right decision? How? How do I know what it is that I am supposed to do? My life is a tad jumbled and messy right now.

"You are SO lucky!"

The other day, when I got off of work, all I needed was some quality time with a dear friend of mine. I showed up to her house with a Diet Coke for her in hand and we spent the evening swapping stories--laughing, venting, and recounting the triumphs and woes of our lives--and it was beyond a blessing! Naturally though, as we chatted, the conversation took a turn towards dating. We both told stories of frustration and shook our heads at the people in our lives who seem to have it all figured out. Without thinking it through 100% I boldly stated that "I know more married people than I do people who are single," and while it definitely feels that way it certainly isn't true. But as a 23 year old member of the church, it can sometimes feel like I am the only one my age not in a relationship/married. We laughed at this idea that "we are so old" and that according to some people (and some of the culture that we live in) we are "doing it wrong" because we ar...
