I am a mini gas bubble....

This past weekend, Ver and I went up north for Jennie and Bri's wedding. It was a blast! We got to see people we haven't seen in almost 10 years and just reminisce about the old days. We partied before, during, AND after the wedding...so much fun. You'd think I'd be sick of weddings at this point of the year, considering that I'd been to more than my share of them...but I always enjoy watching two people celebrate and join in on a new journey. Afterall, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey!

Of eyes wide shut
I'm actually having to drink coffee today to stay awake. I usually have this bout w/ the sleepies every day at work just after lunch(I think my body's screaming for siesta...), but today, it's worse than it's been. I absolutely could NOT keep my eyes open earlier, and I have a lot to do! I think my age is catching up with me. I'm not 29 anymore...he he he. Or maybe it's just the late nights that are catching up to me. I hate not being able to sleep early. I've never really done it consistently, not even since college...so for the past 10-12 years, I've averaged maybe 4-5 hours of sleep. That can't be good huh? What if you're only set to be awake for a certain number of hours throughout the course of your lifetime? So like if you sleep more, you live longer? That would suck...cuz then I've probably shortened my life expectancy by like a quarter at least, he he he.

55 small things you can always do
33. Become the most postitive and enthusiastic person you know.
This one sounds easy, but it's actually quite a challenge...for everyone. It's hard to always think postitively, to always be an optimist. But I think the trick here is to try not to be a pessimist - always seeing the bad, or what could go wrong. Yes, there's a thing called being realistic, but there is an obvious difference between blending optimism with realism and being a realistic pessimist. So try to think positive thoughts...it's the secret, he he he.

Today's quote is more of a today's lesson...
We are powerless to change our past, but we can change how we look at it. Lord, help me to realize that my past has made me a stronger person and show me that these experiences have taught me valuable life lessons.
