Me in junior high: We have calculators for a reason…
Math teacher: Do you really think someday you’ll carry around a calculator everywhere?
Me:
Math teacher: Exactly.
*10 years later everyone has phones with calculators*
Me: I win.

Hormones.
Because I find myself crying because I’m 26, single, and I want a baby, and all I have is a pint of chocolate ice cream and five cats. And then I’m laughing about myself crying. Yeah.
Another pet peeve I have is when people have weird names/middle names on facebook. What is wrong with your real name, people!? Okay, I understand using your middle name as your last name so that you’re unsearchable, or just having an entirely different name as your alias, but the ones that annoy me are mostly Firstname Mymiddlenameisasentence Lastname. Do people really call you that? Seriously.
Random Pet Peeve: When someone with naturally curly hair straightens their hair so much that it destroys their awesome natural curls. It makes me sad. Do they know how difficult it is for me to get my hair to be curly? They had a gift and destroyed it. Just saying.
Disclaimer: I know they probably didn’t mean to do it.
If I was feeling spontaneous tonight, I would step outside my door. I would gaze up and smile at the man in the moon as he looks back at me, beaming through the deep azure sky, lighting the clouds in pure white.
If I was feeling spontaneous tonight, I would sit on my roof and stare at the stars, the few that are bright enough to shine past the luminescent moon. I would fall asleep up there, if I dared.
If I was feeling spontaneous tonight, I would take a walk alone through the streets. The moon is brighter than the streetlights, and it’s almost like day. And I would dance, oh yes, I would dance in the moonlight.
Tonight, I rest in comfort. The full moon shall shine without me. The stars will flicker without my company. And the night, this gorgeous night, will fade into memory. A memory of what was, and what could have been.
I was reading back in my personal journal. The one that I am currently writing in I actually began two years ago, on New Year’s Day. I read a couple of the first entries and I couldn’t help but realize that it almost feels like a mini-lifetime ago. Most of the people that I spent New Year’s Eve with two years ago I don’t even talk to or see on a regular basis. I didn’t cut them out of my life or anything… it just slowly happened. No hard feelings. Of course, the people who I was with that year that I was also with this year are the people who actually matter. They’re the ones who I will spend more New Years’ with.
I’ve found that Christmas I tend to spend with family- meaning relatives. New Years’ I spend with the family that I chose for myself. They know who they are.
Reading and this hit me big time. I hadn’t thought about that last sentence much before because it’s easy to read and move on, but last night I couldn’t stop rereading it. I clicked the lamp off so inspired to live this and not just read it and forget about it. I barely got any sleep as usual. How…
Early demo of the song. What a gem.
Basically I was having a good time before having good times even EXISTED.
Relax, it’s a feel-good song about enjoying the moment.

God gave me the best best friend in the world. Just saying.
“God works all things according to the counsel of his will.” From the roll of the dice, to the circuits of the stars, to the rise of presidents, to the death of Jesus, to the gift of repentance and faith — he accomplishes it according to his will.
