I’m tired. At 10 p.m. I am honestly exhausted. This week hasn’t been so bad. I mean, we finally got the 125th Anniversary week of the college over and done with. And the homecoming was this last week. I’m basically just ready for October to be over and for Thanksgiving to be here.

My cousin got married last Saturday. It was a GREAT weekend. Time with the family is the absolute best. I didn’t get to see PC though which was sad. I’m hoping Thanksgiving will be the time to see him but who knows!


I have like two A’s out of all of the classes I am taking. The rest are high B’s and then my lovely high D in History. I’m going to have to work my butt off just to pull a B on in that class. That is, a low B.

I haven’t been extremely stressed, just with the usual homework and such. I seriously thought I have appendicitis tonight, which was rather terrifying.
This weekend should be enjoyable. Planning on going to some Halloween dance which should be okay I guess..I've decided to dress as a flapper because I’m too lazy and poor to buy anything extreme. I learned how to make my hair into a short bob and bought feathers to stick on my head, so I guess I’m set? Then on Saturday, some volunteer work from 8 am to 12 p.m. Then Andrew and I are gonna make Halloween cupcakes, and read the Tempest. On Sunday a few of us are going to go Trick or Treating because we’re super cool.

That’s all really. I found this jacket at Goodwill for just $1.94. I’m excited.

It's the little things

Okay here it goes.

After being away for almost two months, I don’t even know what to update. I can honestly say that I’ve never been so busy in my life. I’ve been through beep and back..TWICE. Haha. No, but seriously….My life has had its ups and downs in the last month. I don’t really want to get into the details but let’s just say I’ve had to have more than one break down, which soooo isn’t me.

I let the little things get to me. I swear, People were testing me beyond my strength a month ago or so and I had just about had it. I take everything to heart and I had had just about enough of it. My attitude was out of control, my head was spinning, and I felt sick to my stomach for being such a brat.

On a positive note, I have the best friends and family in the world. And when I say the best, I mean THE BEST. Sadly, I haven’t exactly been the best friend to them lately.

I haven’t talked to Nicole on Facebook for longer than ten minutes for God knows how long. Usually I’m on enough to talk to her for a good thirty minutes, just to update each other on our lives. I’m sorry Nicole! I will really get around to calling you, hopefully sooner than later. Then we’ll be able to bond and laugh, because I miss you my friend.

I received a text from Christa last night and it was very sweet. She just reminded me that she thinks of me often and loves me. It’s nice to hear that. I usually try and send a card or text out to my friends letting them know that I love and care for them but lately, gosh, I just haven’t been doing it.

And Andrew, deserves more than one apology from me. He’s been there for me for the past month and half more than I could ever ask for. He’s had to deal with me breaking down, whining, stressing out, and just plain being a jerk to him….And he doesn’t deserve that, not one bit.

I know there’s more friends who I owe an apology to but I have to write a paper now.

It’s those little things that mean the world to me. Like I said earlier, I let the little things get me down, but it’s also those little things that bring me back up.

Sunshine outside helps brighten my mood.

A good laugh with friends in the newspaper room.

A visit from my family.

A compliment always makes my day better.

A phone call from my dad.

A good conversation with a friend. Just recently I’ve made good friends with a staff member on campus. He is so sweet to me and so much fun to talk to. It’s nice knowing that at least there’s someone who cares about my well-being here at this school.

But really, this school is good for the most part. I don’t want to sound negative and make it sound like it’s just plain awful. It’s just a few little things here and there. I’m just going to try and focus on the positive things in my life right now, and not concentrate on the negative things.

So that’s all you guys. I know there’s more but like I’ve mentioned, my paper….my life…whatever else I have to do.
