It's amazing how things are completely different...
And I’m so better off.
I think at that point in my life last year, I thought, “I don’t think life can get better than this.”
IT DID.
I’m so blessed to have the opportunities and people in my life that I have had. Throughout the last year, there has been so much change in my life, but every single factor has had some positive influence to make me the person I am...

This was the first night I could get eight hours...
I was texting Tonya earlier, and she mentioned she was snacking on some candy corn. Then it dawned on me: I’ve never even tried it before. I’ve always been a picky eater. I don’t span much outside chicken, philly cheese steak, and french fries (I’m a health nut, I know!).
So, I feel the need to jot down some of the foods I’ve never even tried:
1. Candy Corn
2....

Quick List
I know I could have just gone to bed like every other normal human being when they are tired, but I just needed to write stuff on here quickly to make me feel complete.
LIST TIME!!!!
1. Crickets are taking over our home. I love all creatures, but when an entire species is attempting to take over our apartment, I tend to get a little territorial.
Little friends, I know I was very welcoming when...
I figured out I have a tendency to criticize people way too much. I focus in on people’s flaws as opposed to the good things about them. I’m a perfectionist. So, criticize me. What do I need to work on? What are flaws I have that I could improve?

Couch Potato
Okay, so I wouldn’t coin myself a “couch potato” for the last two days. I’ve just been living on the couch as opposed to sleeping in my bed. Reason: My TV doesn’t work in my room, and since the roomies are gone until Tuesday night, having the TV as security makes me feel better.
I did something very productive today: I wrote down all the universities I was...
Anonymous asked: I just read your last blog, and I think everyone has felt that way at one point or another... I know I have facebook stalked myself and thought 'How could I have ever been such a mess?!'. You should know you're gorgeous (and smart) and have every right to be completely confident in your abilities and the way you look! Ok.. not really a question but I felt like you should know!
True Life: I'm a Townie
I never believed what I was always told in high school. Everyone always said, “The friends you have now won’t be the friends you have in college. Everything changes when you go to college.”
They were right.
My friends from high school that I’m still close to somehow got out of this town, and my friends that are from college all went home for Fall Break. What’s a...

Break me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar!
And here it is, one day from Fall Break. Thank the Lord Almighty or whatever/whomever is up in those pretty skies!
For four days, I have absolutely nothing to do. What am I going to do with all of this time??? Sleep, work out, sleep, work out, sleep. That sounds splendid!!! All of my friends are going home, and even though I’ll miss all of them, I’m excited to get to spend a few days...
Anonymous asked: I just want you to know that you are going to be okay. Things go wrong sometimes when we don't want them to, and sometimes things we want are something that just might not happen, but no strong woman would be such if they did not overcome some challenge or another...and you, my friend, are a strong one. You are such a bubbly person and your attitude rubs off on people more than you know. You...
Thoughts
I started thinking today about how interesting it is that when we meet people, we don’t realize at that moment just how important they could become later in our lives.
Here are a few stories about how I met those few special people:
1. My best friend, Anna, and I met in choir during the second semester of my freshman year in college. I didn’t know many people in there, so I saw the...

Keeping my head held up high
No matter what obstacles I encounter in my life, I always have to remember to stay confident, strong, and happy. There’s a lot going on right now, but it can’t stop me from living my everyday life. I’m that girl that’s always happy, and I need to stay that way. I can’t get down because that doesn’t help anything. Being confident in myself needs to be my main...

Exhausted
I’m so tired, but it’s like the Internet just pulls me in, forcing me to end up with sleep deprivation. It makes me wonder what life would have been like if I would have grown up without advanced technology. I assume it would be much more productive than I am being right now.
I’m not sure why I’m blogging. It’s so strange to write on here, because honestly, I...

Gosh, we looked so perfect together.
I hope to find someone that matched me as well as you did.
It was a great night :)
Time for bed.
