If you’re going to tell someone you love them, you should live of to it; otherwise it’s three empty words. 

- My stubbornness 

- Being woken up at 9:30 or earlier most mornings 

- On that note, being pushed to the corner of the bed blanket-less

- My ipod always playing

- Sweaty palms

- McDonald’s at least once a week

- Having their hand held 75% of the time

- Frank’s hot sauce on everything 

- Bear hugs

- Loud laughter 

- Adventures

- Surprises

- My best friend

- Long walks

- Answering endless questions while watching a movie (even if you haven’t seen it)

- TLC channel 

- Playing with my hair

- Putting me to bed after a night of drinking

- Terrible singing on long car rides 

- Getting me out of a sulky mood 

There’s just this one guy from school, I hardly even know him but somehow I ended up with him as a bbm contact. I don’t talk to him because I heard he plays Ultimate Frisbee, and that’s weird. Anyway, so he sends me a message yesterday initiating casual conversation; fine, I can handle that. He then asks to take me out, no thank you. I kindly ignored the question because I don’t always like to be rude. Today he sent me a message saying “I got so drunk last night”. Like, alright…I don’t know what you want me to say to that? I thought that was the worst of it, until he messages me again asking what I’m doing all night. I respond by saying I’m doing homework and watching a movie, he responds with “not watching playoffs?”. Uhhh, I believe I once had this conversation with him stating I don’t watch hockey, so I gently remind him of that. He then goes off about his own hockey career. I’m not sure if he’s really obnoxious, or just terrible at trying to pick up females. 

Especially strangers off the Greyhound. 

yayyyyyyyyyyy, I’m going to start packing tonight I’m so excited.

This also always cheers me up

 So many things went wrong, and it just sucked. Although, I guess on a higher note I went to Fresh for lunch and I saw a weirdo man on the street with his penis exposed and it was pretty hilarious. 

This morning I think I was a little bitter with my statement “some people are disappointing,” I don’t take it back because it’s absolutely true, however I regret not mentioning that I have some of the most wonderful people in my life. I spent a lot of my day contemplating it while I was in laying in bed. I think in the past month I’ve had a wave of clarity when it comes to who’s really important. The people that did cross my mind have all had such a positive impact on my life. 

I often find myself picking up on some of their really good personality traits. I think that’s the best part about of these people, you start to take after some of their qualities and mindsets; making you a better person. There is one saying that people come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Yeah, I get it’s cliche and lame, but it’s also very accurate.  

I have one recent example, I really haven’t even said it or written it out yet, so it might sound silly. If you know me, you know that I’m not the most independent person around. I don’t like going places alone I get really anxious and uncomfortable, It’s like I always need someone holding my hand while I do something. So there’s one person in particular whose completely changed my mindset, giving me a whole different point of view. I think we were driving one day and I asked him if he was ever scared of getting lost while traveling. He responded by saying something like “well what’s the worst that can happen” and it’s such a simple way to look at it, but I find myself constantly thinking that whenever I do something on my own. I think i’ve become a lot more dependent person lately, and without this person and the new point of view, I think I would have a lot harder time being in Italy for four months alone. That’s what I mean, it’s such perfect timing. 

I guess I’m just realizing peoples ability to have such impacts of my life. A mother and father of course is obvious, because they raise you. I’m talking the people you don’t expect, that surprise you. You feel so fortunate and blessed that of all people, these ones you get to encounter. I don’t know, I just feel really selfish for saying that “some people are disappointing” and not seeing the good parts.
