2 things

 1)

Chocolate covered cherries. You know the ones..right?
Yeah! These ones!

Well, I hate them. Just kidding. I love them. But, I LOATHE the cherries! I just like the chocolate and the white stuff. So I bite into it and pull the cherry out.


2)

I forgot the second thing..but it was certainly more important than the bit about the chocolate covered cherries..which makes me realize that this is actually a pointless blog post. But..I just wanted to say HI!!

Also, SHOUT OUT to Pantech for being completely, utterly, horribly AWFUL! I'm definitely not a huge fan.


Lovess! :)

Can I get real with you for a minute?

2012.
I'm gonna be honest...2012 was the hardest year thus far in my life.
It was completely miserable.
I don't even want to explain why. Don't get me wrong..some great things happened in 2012.
Honestly, I'm a completely different person now than I was a year and a half ago. The latter half of 2012 was so good for me. I grew a lot. I honestly did. I got over a lot of my fears and anxieties.

A year ago, I never would've gone anywhere alone.
Now I go to parties, games, and other events completely alone. It makes me feel extremely scared and vulnerable, but I still do it.

A year ago, the thought alone of driving gave me an anxiety attack.
Now I have my license and I actually enjoy driving.

A year ago, I would've cried myself to sleep 6 out of 7 days of the week.
Now it only happens..well, I won't say how often..but, a lot less often!

So, what I'm saying is that I've really changed a lot.



2013.
Angst. That word about sums up my feelings towards the year 2013.
The year that I graduate.
The year that I become a freshman again.
The year that I have to actually think about real life stuff.

2013 is the year that has been drilled into my mind since I was a child. Everybody always said that 2013 would be my graduation year and it didn't even seem like it would ever come. And, now that it's here, it still doesn't feel real.

Why am I feeling angst? Because I'm not ready. I'm not ready for anything. You know the parable of the 10 virgins? Well, I would be in the group that was unprepared for the coming of the bridegroom..except in this case, I feel unprepared for real life. I know my stuff, I do, but am I ready to DO stuff? Am I ready to take deadlines seriously? Am I ready to stop procrastinating? Why do I procrastinate, anyways? It's terrifying!! I'm such a fool.


Anyways..sorry. This isn't your typical New Years post. It's not about goals or anything. I know..I'm lame. My apologies.
This is me probably over thinking everything.
Oh well.

I never thought that I'd be writing this post..

If I had a nickel for every time a boy gave me live fish, I'd have two nickels. That's not a lot, I know, but considering that it's happened twice...well, that's a bit comical if you ask me.

Is this real life?!

Is it really this close to Christmas?! Unbelievable, if you ask me. I just barely got SOME shopping done today. I still have so much more to do. Who am I?!

In other news, I also have a bunch of Christmas movies to squeeze in before the day actually arrives..so, you know what I'll be doing.

The best way to spread Christmas cheer..

I may love Christmas caroling.
I may have gone caroling with some of my favorite peoples last night.
We may have had some doors shut in our faces...in loving ways. Actually, no. Not in loving ways.
We may have sang the same 3 songs the whole time. Who cares?
We may have watched Elf afterwards and we also may have had a thousand awkward moments.
I may have loved every moment of last night.

Oh yeah. I did love every moment.

Aha!

Two posts within two hours of the same day? I know. Judge me. Whatever. I love myself and I hate myself. But, my diet starts tomorrow... Please tell me that some of you guys are Harvard Sailing Team fans and you got that quote..

No matter!




I cannot stop listening to this version of Carol of the Bells. Seriously. It is too stinkin good. I just adore the Pentatonix! You'll listen to this song if you know what's good for you. And no, that's not a threat. I'm just saying.
