wow... so the hot & heaviness of my resolutions didn't take long to die down. so far ive been late countless times and this is only my second blog. but fear not trusty blog followers (...or maybe just tabers) i have yet to be discouraged! i keep trying to think of cute ideas for blog entries, but i guess no topic at all will do until i stumble upon my dream blog theme.

today was a good day. it was freezing cold and snowy but the sun poked out a couple of times and it left a nice after taste to all the wintery wonderness. im soo ready to be done with school but i find myself deeply involved in my classes as of recently. learning is such a neat experience and ive noticed that when i pass along what i learn it not only benefits others but sticks with me a lot longer! i love win-wins.

ive been feeling like i need a "good cry" for about the past three weeks. but life keeps cruising a long and i cant find anything to really sob about (im definitely not complaining... and i guess i should go find some wood to knock on) but its kind of silly that when you want to cry life continues to satisfy. im going to resort to a movie soon tho because if i happen to stub my toe or something in the near future i might over react a bit. i heard 7 People good be the answer to my cry ( pardon the pun) and if that doesnt work The Kingdom never fails to turn me into a blubbering fool.

well thats all ive got for the deep thoughts of my late night maddness for this evening. sorry for wasting your time but i feel better typin' it out so thanks for listening! if nothing else you made me smile today :)

im blogging!

happy new year everybody! i keep saying 'a new year a new me' but the only thing ive done differently so far is managed my time a little better. so.. i have some work to do. but i am blogging and ive been wanting to start blogging for moons so this is pretty exciting! my spelling and grammar skills need a little bit of work. but its late and im refusing to let that stop me at the current moment. every journey begins with the first step. or something of that sort. anyways my motivation for tonights very first blog was an email i checked right before i was going to sleep (what id be doing right now had i not been inspired.) i felt the contents of the email were worth sharing since i am working towards a new me. so here you go!

Ways to Help Yourself

Here is a little something we can do for ourselves everyday.


Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you
walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
Buy a lock if you have to.

When you wake up in the morning complete the
following statement, 'My purpose is to __________ today.'

Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control.
Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

Eat breakfast like a king/queen, lunch like a prince/princess and dinner like your broke.

Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.!!!!

Don't take yourself so seriously No one else does.

You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Make peace with your past so it won't spoil your present.

Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their
journey is all about.

No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Forgive everyone for everything, "ALWAYS!!!!"

What other people think of you is none of your business.

However good or bad a situation is, it will change
and then change again!!!!

Envy is a total waste of time. You already have all you need.

Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements: I am thankful for __________. Today I accomplished _________.

Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.
