Well, I am working very hard on the book I have been trying to write for a year. I am at a road block and instead dove into something else for the time being. But, I have not given up, I just wrote another book. It is a childrens book and I will be sending it to a few publishing companies within the next month. And that is very exciting! I cannot wait and when I find out what happens I will be spreading the news!!!

How I did it: I was just sitting in class and I saw this beautiful sunset, and I thought nature makes me happy. So, I pulled out a piece of paper and begun writing, by the end of the class I had over sixty things that made me happy. So, I went back to my dorm room and took another look and added more and by the end of that day I had a hundred things that truly made me happy. Read how I did it…
How I did it: This honestly was the hardest thing in the world. However upon sitting down and thinking this through I discovered exactly who I am. I did this by finding someone who is trying to figure out the same thing. Late nights at a lake with my best friend led me to figuing this out. Also, one night I sat down and I answered the question, Who am I? I ended up writing for hours and the end result was 5 pages explaining who I am. Its not all but by… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I first started by writing a list of books I have always wanted to read. Then I looked up lists of books that one should read before they die. Then I simply went to the library and walked through the stacks if a book stuck out I would read the summary if it sounded like it had meaning I would read it and some of the books I picked were simply amazing.

I am figuring this out slowly but surely. So far I have this,
I am the type of girl who goes out of my way to help anyone, I am happy and very talkative. But it annoys me when someone is rude while I help them. I am the type of girl who always has a book with her, its in my purse at all times. Its a safety net. Reading is one of the only things that make sense to me. If I can throw myself into a great book my life is complete. Music is the other thing that I understand. A good song explains life, and I find myself trying to find myself in a good song. I am a very passionate person. If I find something that I love I will give myself completly to that. I am like that in relationships to. I am the kind of person who does not get brought down by other peoples issues but I am very empathetic and will try my hardest to help..
This is just a little of what I am finding out. More will come I know that! But I am happy and for the first time in awhile I am proud to be who I am.
These past few weeks my self confidence has much improved, I was doing more becoming the life of the party, meeting new people, and finally telling a certain someone how I feel. I was doing great in school, and personally felt very happy…
However, tonight I don’t really know what happened I was at a small group party in the dorms and I all the sudden felt really self conscious, I didn’t like the company, I had a fight with that someone and someone that I had a thing with last year was completly ignoring me for a friend. Then my roommate left me there with these guys and a girl who had been wearing on me… and the one he was interested in.
I cant explain why this mad me so mad I didnt like him that much just enough to feel ugly, and I dont believe I a am. But I lost the belief I had in myself that I had worked so hard to gain this past month, in a span of two hours. Why in the world do I let the small things bother me?
