why today was great.

Sounds pleasing my ears: click, click, click, click - bishop allen

Today was just an ordinary thursday.

I went to sleep last night at about one. Pretty average.

Then I woke up exactly 8 hours later, and just laid in the sunshine streaming in through the windows. That feeling is one of the greatest out there.

Went to class, thought about some neat things. Like here's one for you to ponder [I haven't quite figured out the answer yet] but what makes society fair? How do we measure that? and what defines the threshold? Not according to you, but to society as a whole.

Right.

I made some delicious soup for my nutrition project. I really like that class, it's not the easiest but I really LOVE it.

THEN, when I was checking my email and stuff before work I found out that I get to move into my house for the fall FOUR days early. No charge. That's right people, 4 buildings, including mine, are void of the $15 a night early fee! Why is this such good news? Because that means four less days being homeless!!!! YAYYYYY! I'm so happy! the Lord was looking out for me :)

Then I laughed really hard at this. Only because it's true. haha.

At work this girl came up to the candy counter. Just stopped, looked at me, and goes, "did you know you're really pretty??" Made my life. I laughed, and said thank you. And told her she was pretty herself, because she was. I love random things like that.

and then I ran. I love running. Any who. That's that. Today was awesome. Life is just simply splendid. I love it here!

it's weird.

Being here.

This summer has been so different. It's been a summer of firsts. I feel so free. I'm thinking and seeing things more clearly than I ever have before. I'm in such a good place. I know I made the right decision being here. Even if it meant sacrifice. I've grown up a lot. Even in just a month. It's amazing how circumstances change you. Not to say that I'm not me anymore. I still fully am through and through crazy, silly, outgoing, quirky me. I would give that up for anything.

I just feel more. Alive.

and I like it.

I love my roommates. I couldn't have asked for anything better.



twas such a funny afternoon! went to have a picnic in the canyon we ended up with not the right foods, a fork, losing a lacrosse ball, and it poured. But we took full advantage of it and DANCED. Love these mountain thunder storms.

You know what I've never really understood?

Why they say life is just going up hill when things are easy going and life is good. In my experience going up hill is no easy feat. It's the hardest part of the run, and getting to the top is exhilarating. When you make it through those hard times, it feels good after. Then you start going down hill. In english we generally understand this expression to mean that things are not going well. Going down hill is EASY people. Especially in running, yeah, I guess it can rip your knees a new one, but when done correctly it's smooth sailing. So let's think logically.

why can't up hill be hard and down hill be easy?

it is in my world :)
