What I dislike about losing an object, in my case my keys, is that you get such a feeling of anxiousness and uncertainty. Will I find my keys? Are they lost forever? Did magical little ginger midgets steal my keys at an attempt to be funny? These are all questions I would like to have answers to sometime in the near future. It is really just one big pain in the ass. Not only our my car keys missing, but also my apartment and mailbox keys. Ugh. FML.
On a better note however, I had such a fun time playing Euchre with my mom and my friends Mo and Heather. They came over last night and I made a FABulous din din for everyone and then we did some delicious shots and played a few games of Euchre. Mo and I came out victorious after a well-played championship game so that was fun. I was actually supposed to go with my mom to play Euchre at this tournament thing but of course, thanks to my missing keys, we could not go. She did not want to drive her truck at night because of a busted taillight that she has to get fixed so we are stranded and now I am blogging about it.
Tommorrow I am hanging out with Jason. That will be fun. I always enjoy hanging out with the boyfriend. We might have to go get keys or whatever you do to replace car keys and such. But whatever, we will be together if it comes to that. :) I am enjoying my x-mas break so much and I am going to be sad when I have to go back to school. It has been so nice to just relax and spend time with my mom and Jason. Seeing my friends and family is always so nice. Especially when you are away for so long.
On a more random note, I am watching Ghost Hunters International and they are trying to speak to the ghost of hitler. For a brief moment I seriously considered looking into the ghost hunting business as a profession. I know its normal for college students to have no idea what they want to do with their lives, but I really wish it wasn't happening to me right now. I thought I had my A-Ha! moment that reinforced the fact I wanted to work in museums, but tonight I am feeling anxious about my decision. I need to take my pill. Maybe it will calm me down a bit and re-focus me. But seriously though, wouldn't it be kind of cool to be able to travel all around the world and investigate old buildings while trying to prove the existence of ghosts? haha. Anyways, I think thats all for me today. I might go eat a bowl of Special K redberries. It's delicious and will me my comfort food in this time of unrest. :) Love you all!

A New Year, A New Me
It's 2010! I cannot believe I am embarking on a new decade of my life. I haven't really thought about it much but today I came up with some pretty good, at least to me, resolutions that I think will help me live a better life this year.
Resolution #1
I will go to church while up at school. I will not, however, promise to make it every Sunday but I will try to go more frequently. I was sitting in church today and it occurred to me that a very serene feeling comes over me when I am there. I need to reconnect somewhat with God. I have been so consumed with material possessions and my own problems that I forget to turn to the one true being who can guide me in the direction I need to go in. This is a good step for me, one that can only benefit my self as a whole.
Resolution #2
I will make good decisions in my daily life. Within this resolution is so many different ways to better myself. By choosing to do things that are going to positively effect me, their is no way I can't succeed in the coming year. I want to better my body, mind, and soul. I am not going to make it a resolution to lose weight and do my homework. I am leaving at a generalized idea of making good decisions. If I get into too much detail I will never complete my resolutions. Every year I tell myself I am going to lose weight and it never happens. This year I will work on losing weight but it will be part of the bigger picture.
I feel good coming into the new year. With the help of my mom I have a new budget to help me with my financial situation and can now focus on other areas in my life without having a heavy black cloud looming over me all the time. This year my hormones will not get the best of me. This may seem silly, but is something that I have been struggling with for awhile now. With the help of my doctor and family and friends, I can reach a balance spiritually and medically. This also, will not get in my way this year. Sure, there will be days when my depression will hurt more than others, but I have been feeling very good lately and am excited to see my progress continue into this year and many years to come.
I am thankful for many people that I am lucky to have in my life this year, and years past. My mother is a strong rock. She is my hero and my best friend and I would not be able to function without her. I will need her this year to keep me focused so that I can achieve my goals. My boyfriend Jason is my shoulder to lean on. He supports me in everything I do and I am so happy we are still together and plan on being together for a very long time. I hope I will be able to show him as much support as he does me, so that he can achieve all of his dreams. We can go very far with the help of each other.
My friends are a little of everything. They support me, push me, and provide an escape when I need to leave my troubles behind. We all have our own struggles but if we rely on each other for support, than we all can accomplish our goals this year. I want to be a better friend this year. I know I sometimes am found lacking in the friends department, but I believe my heart is in the right place, I just don't always know how to handle situations correctly. I have great friends who have taught me many things about life, and I hope I bring something valuable to theirs lives as well. This year I want to make sure I listen to my friends better, respect them more, encourage them more, and love them more. They are the family I choose, and they have chosen me. I owe them so much for choosing to let me be a part of their lives. I am made better by their friendship.
This year is about finding my center, and my balance. Oftentimes we lose our balance when on our path to self-fulfillment. It is up to us to get back up and keep on walking, with the help of friends and family. It's kind of like a walk for a cause. When walking with supporters it feels like whatever you are trying to overcome is only a small bump rather than a mountain.
