Why do I always have like SOOOO MUCH laundry? It's never-ending! As soon as I finish washing, drying, and packing all that stuff, I'm gonna go out with my mom and drive aimlessly about the state. You know, 'cause gas is like so cheap these days. It's something we do when we have down time, and it's just really fun. Connecticut can be very pretty around this time, and it's so nice to have the chance to get to see it.

My sore throat is killing me. Yes, I finally got sick. I really don't know if it's just a cold or the flu, but I'm slowly losing my voice.

I have a lot of readings I want to do tonight. I just wanna get ahead, given how I may start playing club volleyball, which meets M, Tu, Th from 9-11 PM, so I just may not have time to do homework at all. Plus, I really, really rather procrastinate and not do homework over the week. Or, perhaps, attempt to study Italian, which I really should be doing.

Um, I don't know. There a lot of things that a year ago would have made me quite unhappy, but you know what? It really, really doesn't bother me. There's so much joy in my life, and it just seems like nothing can bring it down. I hope it stays like this for a while, I'm quite enjoying the big idiotic smile I have on my face all the time now.

OK, time to go pack and rush my mom to get ready. I can't be inside the house when the weather is this gorgeous!

Life as A Happy Girl

"Thought I'd been in love before But in my heart I wanted more Seems like all I really was doing Was waiting for you"


I am so glad to have found you :)

Thanksgiving was a lot of fun and a lot of food. I eat WAY MORE than I should have ever eaten. I guess I won't be eating again until tomorrow night - I feel so full! Attempting to do homework while on break isn't really working, but I'm trying. I have SO MUCH reading to do, and being in the same room with my sister and her loud music doesn't really help. And I think I'm getting sick. I can feel it on my throat and my eyes are getting sleepy. I'm so tiiiiiired. It's like, I never really sleep well anymore. Without my Benadryl, I can't really sleep.

This Thanksgiving was very special for me - There are so many things that I should be thankful for - I have a wonderful family, I'm very happy in college, I have great friends, and it seems that things just get getting a little better by the day - God is just too awesome :)

A lot has happened since I last updated this journal. I feel that in just a few months, my life has really, really changed. For once, I feel that I have grown into a mature young women. I'm no longer the person I was for the first 21.2 years of my life. I am changing, and I really like it. My life is slowly taking the path I was dreamed it would. I have BIG dreams, and they all seem to be on their way to becoming a reality. No matter how tired, sick, or groggy I feel sometimes, nothing, absolutely nothing can bring down this joy that my life has been filled with. It's hard to explain it and put it down on words, but I can just say that I had not been happier before. It all just makes me look up to the sky to Him, and smile; simply, just smile.

I'm really going to get back to my reading now. I really hope I don't forget how much I like writing/blogging, and update this baby more often.
