'Tis the Season

only 4 more weeks of school left until I am finished with my 5th semester of school. [Thank you Lord]

today is Adrianne and Timmy's 1 year anniversary, [go you for this far!]

Friday- Sean took me to see the Body Exhibit down at South Street Seaport. It was really nice and fun, since it was his idea and I have been wanting to go. Really touching and amazing. I recommend everyone to see it.

A moment of prayer for a guy who lost his leg as well as the driver who innocently didn't see him run out into the middle of the street...crazy on both ends, but yeah.

Trees are starting to light up all around the city. My roommate is also a holiday fanatic[lucky for her]. We put up some lights around the room last week, so they've been on pretty much since then. We've made snow flakes [it snowed a bit today this morning] and they are on our windows. And my xmas play-list has been playing almost what seems like nonstop. It's a wonderful feeling, this holiday season...it just makes me feel so warm and nice inside.

With everything else set aside, the holiday season makes me miss a lot of things, memories, friends, family, even old loves. I know I've vowed to never say that, but who am I kidding. There's something about the season that makes you want to be with someone and everything be perfect surrounded by pretty lights, drinking hot chocolate, staring at the huge Christmas tree, or a fire burning and watching people ice skate. And when you're alone and have no one special during the season, it just sucks really. Thanks to family and friends though, I guess that's what they are there for, no matter what, you're never really alone.

I just love this season, from Thanksgiving all the way until Valentine's Day. It's just my favorite part of the year emotionally and mentally. Whether I have someone special or not, it's still my most favorite time of year. [Although it wont be the same this year without Grandma]

I can't wait to get home and see some people I haven't seen in so long. I'll be making some road trips and short trips, but either way, I'm going to make the best of it.

Oh and FYI Mexico is looking good still...definitely will keep that updated.

I think Starbucks is making me fat. I need to start watching what I eat, it's so easy to fall behind, plus I am going to get back in the gym! Swear on it. Oh and Andy said he was going to start the food journal again today, so that should be up and running again.

Today I stopped into my old Creative Writing Prof. office and gave him a 'Pass the Cheer' coupon for a buy on get on free drink from Starbucks. My good deed for the day. He's one of my favorite prof. He's sort of awkward and unusual, in a cool, sincere way though, not weird or creepy, just very smart and different. Shout out to Prof. Hyde! Wished him a happy holiday and all that, he has always helped me out, from letters of recommendation to anything I ask really...thanks again!

My life is like a fight right now and I'm tired of fighting.
This is exactly what I meant and how I feel right now...am I in the midst of being pulled down? hmm...time to reevaluate the situations and see what's worth what and what's not.

I love the love.
