My plan for blog entry title is to use a quote that's somewhat applicable to the topic of my entry. I suppose I should give credit to the people who said the words first. Yesterday's quote was by Albert Einstein, today's is by Oscar Wilde.
In just a few short weeks I will be a member of an exclusive club called 21 and up. I don't really care about the drinking part, but local establishments seem to frown on us babies being out past 9:00. It's putting a big wet blanket on my social life! That was all a semi-sarcastic rant since I'm a little more patient than that. I'm just excited to be able to hang out with friends who are a little older no matter where we go. The other day, my dad offered me a glass of wine (keep in mind, my birthday is about a month away) but my mom said something about it being wrong to offer drinks now after not doing so for so many years. Long story short, my dad thought I was already 21. That was pretty funny.
I got out of work early today. I'm noticing a trend! Maybe this will continue all next week as well. That would be nice. Of course, with all my extra time, I'm not really doing anything productive. I have a huge paper due at the end of the semester that I'm not excited about starting. I'm getting good at finding reasons not to. But, the semester's done in 15 days so just a little more effort and these classes will be over. I'm looking forward to it!
So this is my first blog entry. Well, not first ever, because I've had several unsuccessful starts in the past, but hopefully this one sticks! I think it will be nice to get my thoughts out on "paper" every once in a while.
So here I go: Today was a good day. Good thing #1: I was done with my tasks at work early today so I got to go home early. Good thing #2: Because I got home early, I had time to take a nap (yay!) Good thing #3: I ate a delicious meal that I actually took the time to prepare. Give me a moment to go off on a tangent. When you have no one else to cook for, you eat like crap. Why? Why can't we love/care for/do things for ourselves as much as we love/care for/do things for others? So, thank you Lauryn, you helped me eat a good dinner tonight! Good (great) thing #4: Spent time with my wonderful friend Lauryn which always involves great conversation and lots of laughing! Good thing #5: Ice cream. I have been craving it for days and I finally had some tonight. Delicious.
I think the moral of this story is that if I just take time to notice the little things in my life that are good, I will have a much more positive outlook on life. Hopefully this blog helps me to do that!
