The 10 best things...

The top 10 best things I am thankful for in life:
10. Food and not having a shortage of it
9. Education- as much as I complain I'm thankful for it
8. Travel- the oppertunities I've had to visit the places I've been
7. Movies- that allow me to step away from myself and into a new world
6. Nature- being able to walk and enjoy
5. Technology- and my ability to use it to keep in touch and get work done
4. My Fish- I love the little guy!
3. Music- allowing me to express myself through playing and listening.
2. My Family- who is wonderful and allows me to do everything I can
and most important,
1. My Friends- who are always there for me and constantly remind me that they care, for that I am eternally grateful

Don't Know

I don't know what's wrong with me. I haven't been in the best of moods lately, and part of it is I don't know what's wrong. For the first time in my life, I do not understand. Whatever it is, things are getting better, and I am slowly bringing myself back up. However, it doesn't help when people start saying mean things about me to me, cutting up every part of my life, and telling me how I should live my life. That just hurts. Deeply.

Stats is also killing me. I am so scared for the exam, I have to start studying for it soon. I have to try and figure out what's going on, and I have to reteach myself because my prof can't.

I'm sure things will pick up soon. At least, I hope so.

Content

I don't want to go home for thanksgiving. I don't know why I don't, I"m just not feeling the urge to go home like I have in the past. I'm not dreading it, I know it will be a fun and well deserved break, and a chance to get some real food in me (not that I don't eat well here), I guess I feel I have no reason to go home. I'm even going to start packing now to see if that will make me happier about the whole situation. The one exciting thing is that Jessica is coming with me. That will be fun, especially since I have passes from working in the summer, and she hasn't seen the Falls in quite awhile.

The reality of fourth year is finally starting to hit me. With the amount of work I've been doing it should have hit me alot sooner, but it's only started to now. When I walk around campus, and remember walking around it for the past three years, noticing how it's changed and remembering walks and moments that have happened with people, I realize how far I've come. It's bittersweet, I'm happy that I've made it to where I am now, but sad that it will be over soon.

Meghan's birthdayt weekend was a blast. I ate way too much spread out over the weekend, but it was worth it. Fun times at the Loop, absolutley hilarious to see Luke dancing. I quite enjoyed that.

My days are filled with classes and homework, and my evenings are filled with spending quality time with people, and keeping in touch with everyone. I feel that I am exactly where I should be, and I am content, for the first time in awhile.

Now if I could only get back on my diet...
