Oh man. Some days it's hard to say what could have possibly made your day any better. Today was phenomenal. I made homemade pizza with the girls at work. I colored for about an hour. I got to sleep in this morning. I get free dinner. It's a wonderful premier night. Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, The Big Bang Theory, and My Generation. I love today. In 15 days I got to see Brittany and Betsy for a wonderful weekend. In 22 days I get to see Amy, Kayla, Joey, Swenson, Jason, and others. I CAN'T WAIT. Life is SO good.

Always,

I GET TO SEE MY BEST FRIEND IN 16 DAYS!!! I can't wait. She's coming to visit me for a weekend. We're going to spend the entire weekend shopping in Branson, shopping downtown, eating at fun restaurants, and watching movies. It's going to be splendid and I CAN'T WAIT. The weekend of the 8th can't come soon enough. BAH! =]

Always,

Perfectly Imperfect

"I'm not a perfect girl. My hair rarely stays in place. I spill a lot of things and I'm pretty clumsy. But when I take a step back and think about it, I remember how life truly is. And maybe...I like being imperfect."

I couldn't have said it better myself. Hence, the quote. To elaborate though...I'm really not perfect.
-I'm VERY clumsy. I'm constantly falling over things.
-I tend to say things before really thinking about them. My foot gets stuck in my mouth frequently because of it.
-I procrastinate.
-I forget simple words a lot. They just disappear from my brain.
-I'm emotional.
-I have a quick temper, however I'm fairly good at keeping it under control.
-My room is almost always a disaster.
-I can't cook. I can if I have a VERY descriptive recipe to follow. It still never turns out like it should.
-I don't like talking on the phone.
-I rarely take good pictures. I'm almost always sticking my tongue out or crossing my eyes or some other silly thing.
-I watch way too much tv.
-I'm addicted to shows like OTH.
-I'm a grouch in the mornings.

I know that maybe I'm not someone that everyone would like. I know that I'm imperfect. However I like that about me. I wouldn't want to be perfect. That's too much to live up to. Somewhere out there, there is some wonderful perfectly imperfect man who will love the perfectly imperfect me and we will live forever in perfect imperfection. I can't wait. =]


Always,

This may seem pathetic and sad...

I miss high school. I know. Four words I never thought I'd say. I do though. Those years may have been filled with pointless drama, but they were also filled with many friendships. The memories from those years will never leave me and I can always look back at the pictures and videos of the people that I thought would always be in my life. It makes me really sad that a lot of those people are just that...memories. People I loved, still do love, and probably always will love that just simply faded out of my life. People like Kristi Hanson. That is one girl that I miss a lot. We had our ups and downs, but when we had our downs we talked it out, cried on each other's shoulders and were okay again. Now we're not even facebook friends? There are also my friends that we're "keeping in touch." That pretty much means we facebook stalk each other but never really talk. How did my life change so drastically? Luckily, I still have a few of those wonderful high school friends. I still have a few people that I know I can still call whenever I need to. It sucks that I have to call or skype just to hear their voices, but hey, you take what you can get... And for those of you that I know I can still tackle in a hug the next time I see you...I'm SO thankful that I have you. You will never know how much I love you and miss you. If you're one of those I've drifted from or vice versa...I miss you. Please come back.

So yes, I do miss high school. I miss having one largely dysfunctional theatre family that I knew was always there. I love each and every member of that family and probably always will, even if I only have the pictures to remember them by.

Always,

Okay, if you're reading this, brace yourself. It's going to be a lot of complaining and getting everything that's bogging my mind down out of my mind so that maybe I can sleep decently tonight.

1.) I love my best friend to the ends of the world. I'm also very frustrated with her right now. Not technically her, but the situation. I still find it insanely unfair that she gets out of a relationship and not two days later she's in another one. I've been looking for someone for ages. I know, I know. It's just not in God's plan for me right now. Maybe when I stop looking my prince charming will appear. What a crock. (Not the God thing, the stop looking thing.) I just feel like it's not fair. Why don't I deserve to have someone to share my life with? Why must I be stuck watching everyone else in their adorably happy bliss? How is that fair? I'm SO genuinely happy for all of my friends who seem to be finding love, but it doesn't take the sting away that nobody out there finds me worthy of love. But I guess that's what you get when you're the girl that guys are friends with and not the girl that guys date.

2.) HOLY CRAP. I hate studying for psych. There's just way too much that's deemed IMPORTANT. It's impossible to know what's truly important when it all seems to be that way. I really would just like to throw my book at the wall, rip up my notes and notecards, and be done with it. I'll love the class again as soon as this test is out of the freaking way.

3.) BOYS. UGH. (That's all about that one.)

4.) I love my new puppy but he drives me insane as well. He's the sweetest dog in the world until he wants to play when I still have 30 minutes left of sleep time in the mornings...

5.) I'm missing my friends Amy, Kayla, and Joey something fierce. I could really use a group hangout/hug from them.

6.) There's so much more on my mind that I can't even focus on it enough to separate it to write it down. So I guess that's where this little rant ends.

My apologies.

Always,

A girl and guy can be just friends, but only for a time. At one point they will fall for each other. It may be temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe (if they're truly lucky) forever.

Someday everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.
