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!

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

16 Things I Learned In 2016

Here it is. I cant believe that it is already New Year's Eve. This year has gone so fast and so slow. It has been happy and hard and different than I ever imagined it would be. This time last year, I was at my parent's house in Texas. So much has changed since I rung in the new year with little brothers and 60 degree weather, and as I have spent the day with just two cute puppies and my thoughts I have been overwhelmed with all that the last year has given me. So here it is, in no particular order...16 things that I learned in 2016. 16. Travel Often. Across the ocean or just a few hours away, take the time to see new places. It is ALWAYS worth it. 15. It's okay to say no. Sometimes, you can only give how much your heart will allow. You must take care of yourself before you can take care of others. I learned this through my job, but it is a lesson that I have needed to apply to my entire life for a very long time. ...

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...
