winter break

note to self,

christmas break was too short.  it was wonderful but as always, it seemed to last only a day long.  seeing family was so nice and being able to take your mind off of school was refreshing.  you went to atlanta, georgia to help move sis back but your short trip became extended when the random "weather bomb" hit and all of atlanta became snowed-in! it was nice however to see some snow over the break since the weather here was more along the lines of 70 degrees [no complaints].  you took lots of pictures and had fun with friends. so basically it ended up being a mini-vacation haha! only negative: you did not pack for snowy weather aka your shoes leaked water. so i guess next time, just check the weather before you decide to go 5 states over.

note to self,

for so long you have thought that being alone was something bad. you saw yourself without a best friend, without a boyfriend and thought how pathetic, she is all alone.  but what a beautiful reminder it is to hear how being alone is not a negative connotation.  it is ok to be by yourself, to do things on your own, to not have someone walk hand in hand with you down the street. its ok to sit solo, to dance solo, to sing solo, and to laugh solo.  its perfectly ok.

break time

note to self,

it is a good feeling to receive all A's.  you should aim for that every semester. but now you should stop thinking about school and start enjoying this glorious Christmas break.  enjoy spending time with family and with friends old and new.  enjoy the crisp cool air and the freedom of being able to sleep in.  enjoy this break but do not forget the whole meaning behind Christmas: Jesus.  Christmas is the time when you recognize Jesus' birth into this world.  That day is the day that changed the world forever.  You sin everyday but because God put his only son on this earth to die for your sins, you are forgiven.  So enjoy this break but remember to give thanks to God for Jesus.

window view

note to self:

its funny how exactly a month ago it was freezing but today mother nature decided she wanted to wear a sundress

looking out your window you see a tree branch covered with orange leaves and a blue sky filled with white puffy clouds.  the wind is blowing a warm breeze which makes the leaves rustle as if they are dancing.  a large bird is flying through the sky enjoying the view from above. the sun is shining brightly creating a glow throughout your room.  this is such a beautiful day.  yes, it is December 4th and you are still able to wear shorts outside but who cares? enjoy this weather while you can, the cold is bound to come back soon
