When Life Blows, Blow It Back.

There's been a lot going on lately, and honestly - I haven't been able to find time to blog.
I don't know how it happens, because I feel like I sleep my days away. I don't though!

Today is Sunday, and I'm doing laundry...yet again. I'm on my first trip - 3 loads. Then, I have to go back to the dorm and get the rest. I'm not dirty, I swear. I just have a CRAP LOAD of clothes. Its ridiculous, but I wouldn't get rid of them for the world. I don't think I could ever downsize my closet any more than I have. I have SO many boxes of clothes at home that I brought, and then had to take back, and its killing me not to have them.

I've had a lot to think about lately. School: in most classes there are only 4 tests, and I'm on my 3rd tests right now in all my classes. Soon it will be time for finals, and I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to get through them all. I feel like I've been in college for like 2 years already, but I'm only a freshman. Next semester when I come back, I will still technically be a freshman. I really want to take some summer classes, but they'd have to be online or at the college in my hometown. I can't stay here over the summer. [This paragraph isn't even the HALF of what I've had to think about with school, I just don't have time to write it all down.]

Friends: I'm trying to figure out how this is going to pan out with my friends in the future. I know that most of the people I talk to now will have completely lost contact with me in about five years. I get tied down in friendships very quickly for some reason, and I think I'm learning that I call people my 'best friend' when in actuality, they're not - they're just someone I hang out with a lot. Sure, I do tell her a lot...but I'm not sure if that qualifies as a best friend? I just don't know anymore. I need to just see what happens. I'm not saying I don't want to be her friend anymore, but I need to realize that there are ways to make friends other than just telling them every detail of your life.

Body: I'm one of those people who really worry's about their body. I hate when people call me fat, and I REALLY hate when people say I'm NOT fat. Ugh. Just don't say anything about my body. When I'm skinny, you can call me skinny. That's all. I worry about my weight. I worry about what I look like in clothes. I worry about what I look like when I'm dancing. I worry about everything. Don't judge me, because that is what has made me this way in the first place. So yeh - all you douche bags in middle school and high school who decided to make those comments to me, its your fault. Anyways, That's mostly what I've been worrying about lately.

I'm officially going on a healthy diet though. So maybe since I'm putting it out there for everyone to see, I'll hold myself accountable for it. AND I'm working out. SHOCKER. I absolutely hate working out. Maybe that's why I'm like this...haha. Soo...I just wanted to post since I hadn't in a while.

Love!

Pat on the Black

We finally made it back to Valdosta, & I'm happy to be back. My recital is in 4 days, and I'm still really nervous about that. I got a dress though! It's zebra print with a yellow belt. Love it :)

I'm at my happiest, snuggled up in bed wearing Kaleb's sweats, watching Grey's Anatomy, and about to go to sleep! We are getting up early for church tomorrow, and then after that, I get to FINALLY go back to my dorm. :) Maybe its weird that I enjoy living in such a small space with someone else..or maybe  its weird because there should be no way for me to enjoy 30 other people living on my hall, but I absolutely love living on my own. If this is the only way I can do that right now, I'll be happy with it. There's no one telling me when to eat, when not to eat, when to go to bed, if I can skip class, NONE OF IT.

Jordan and I are good friends. Great friends. We talk about everything, she probably knows way too much about me, and I probably know way too much about her, but isn't that how its supposed to be with a roommate? One of my other friends doesn't even talk to her roommate. She never had a huge problem with her...Its just that from day one, she was like "I don't want to be friends, I want to be roommates, and that's it". I just don't see that working out. I would never have been able to bring Kaleb over. Our room would have never been switched around. I would have less shoes & jewelry to wear. (yeh, she's definitely not my size in shirts & pants haha) I just don't understand how you can get through college with someone living in the same room as you...but never ever talking. When Jordan and I had our big fight...it lasted days. We said like 5 words to each other the whole time, and it was miserable. When one of us came into the room, the other left. My whole point is: DON'T hate your roommate. Be friends. If you have to do everything you can ever think of to be nice to them, do it. It will be worth it.

I know I wrote every single day over spring break, and maybe some of it was stupid, but I have to get my thoughts out somewhere. Anyways - Spring Break was overall a good week. I spent time with my family, and got to do some things I don't get to do at school. I'm not wanting to go back though, a week was plenty of time for me. A lot of things happened over my break, things I probably shouldn't talk about on a blog where anyone can see. I didn't 'grow up' over spring break by any means, but I have learned some things this past week. I've learned for one, that I will be a lot busier from now on. Not only will I have school, Kaleb, friends, choir, and the sorority, but I will also be catching up on some things I haven't been doing that I should have. (can't believe there's anything else to fit into my schedule, hunh? me either.)

Be that as it may, (I looked up the word 'anyway' in the thesaurus. haha) I am going to watch my show now, that I have been talking about for like 3 days now. Night <3
