the ring
Every year, the holidays are always the same to me. People spend time with their families, put up the Christmas tree and the menorahs, go crazy over shopping to find the perfect gifts, make copious amount of delicious foods, etc. So it is strange to me that suddenly everything is changing. Maybe its my age but so many of my friends and my friends friends got engaged today and believe me I am happy...

I felt like things went how they were supposed to go today. To be honest, I’m sick of thinking of the holidays as nothing special. Up until today, the last few years haven’t really been memorable or meaningful. I honestly wish things were different.
Today was extremely fun and wonderful :) I am so happy.

7-8 hours.
It seems like yesterday I was talking about how much I hate being passive. I still do, but I feel a little less passive than usual. The thing is though - I had every right in the world to speak my mind.
7-8 more hours to go. The first three are going to go by so fast and then the rest is going to go by so slow. I know this for a fact. and I know the first thing I’m going to do once the 8...

love-andmemories:
just cried like a baby reading articles and watching videos about eric legrand’s recovery. when asked what he’ll do if he walks again, he responded;
“I’ll go to Giants Stadium and find the exact spot on the field where I went down, I’ll lie there for a second. And then I’ll get up on my own power and walk away.”
if that’s not inspiring, i don’t know what is. bELieve...

I'm trying.
I’m trying not to give up. I’ve been up since 6 am constantly moving and grooving. I spent the entire morning hand writing my final and the whole day processing textbooks.
I repeat. I am trying not to give up. I am seriously trying. I have until 12 to finish my finals studying, my Nietzsche paper, take a shower, etc.
Help?
