Good Food! 2 months ago

I went to the store and picked up a few favorites: Satsumas, Baby gouda, Thai Kitchen instant noodles, good whole wheat bread and nutella to go on top!

A healthy (and I also believe, attractive) body.

Yay! 10 months ago

My pretty summer dresses that I am going to start wearing now that it’s March and steadily getting warmer.



Boyfriend 10 months ago

Anytime he says something sweet to me, which is fairly frequent. His little comments always make me smile, because I know they’re sincere.



Tea 10 months ago

A good cup of tea and an engaging philosophy class on these lovely Thursday (almost Friday!) mornings.



Untitled 10 months ago

I’m getting better. I admit it’s probably because it’s getting a lot lighter out, and much less cold. My optimism levels have a lot to do with the weather. Also because I’m currently awaiting spring break (less than 2 weeks) when I can go home and visit my amazing family and my hometown, which is still my favorite place ever.
I love when I wake up in the morning and can lay there, just enjoying the light coming through the window and the warmth of my blankets.
Maybe that’s what I’ll start doing… every time I log on here I should write down one thing that I appreciate.



I'm Actually Very Blessed 11 months ago

I spend a lot of time feeling lonely when I have fun friends, a boyfriend who loves me, and a wonderful family. I spend a lot of time worrying about money, when really I have enough to last until summer, when I leave school to work. I look at the contents of my room and wish there were more, or that it was different, when in reality I prob. have one of the best dorm rooms in the whole dorm. (It’s a single. :-) These feelings lead me to feeling downtrodden and sorry for myself. They distract me from what is important, like studying and building my relationships with the aforementioned people. I want to embrace the positive things in my life for what they are, rather than wishing it was different, because hey, this is the only life I have.
