Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Hello everyone!!

How're you, how was your weekend? Happy St. Patrick's Day!! Well, St. Patrick's eve, but still!!

"May joy and peace surround you,
Contentment latch your door,
And happiness be with you now,
And bless you evermore!"
(Irish blessing)

May your St. Patrick's Day be fantastic tomorrow, and even if you aren't celebrating may luck be with you both tomorrow and into the future!!

What an eventful weekend.... mostly lovely though, to be honest!! I stayed over at a friend's house, and we watched tons of movies - at one point during Les Miserables, we jumped up and built a full out barricade in her living room using as much movable furniture as we could find, and were singing in triumphant gusto!! While we watched The Great Gatsby (LOVE that movie!!), we dressed in 1920s-esque fashion and danced and laughed at cried, just the usual!! ;) (and yes, we're totally crazy!! :D) However, at one point while we were sitting together, my friend started started to shake and tremble, as if she had hypothermia but it wasn't cold... usually, she's a highly talkative person, but she could barely talk; I'm not sure if it was an anxiety attack, I'm not sure if she knew either or she just didn't want to tell me, but it didn't matter. I wasn't sure how to help, so I just sat with her, gave her a hug, and chattered away about Finnick Odair from the Hunger Games books and the family crest of Benedict Cumberbatch and she finally was able to calm down. It was one of the scariest things though... I had no idea how to help her, and that feeling of helplessness, however brief it may be, is one of the worst feelings to feel. This isn't the first time I've felt it, but it never gets easier. If any of you are feeling like this about something in your lives, or know someone who is, I send my love and prayers, and hopes for a brighter tomorrow. Keep your chins up!!

Happiest of St. Patrick's Days!!

Over and out. Rinse. Repeat.

Weekly Obsession!!

O.O OH.MY.GOODNESS.GRACIOUS.

My weekly obsession: Downton Abbey.

I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH!!! I can't believe I didn't start this sooner, but at the same time I regret starting it mid-semester, cause I've dedicated far too much time this past weekend to watching it (about a season and a half's worth in 24 hours or so, it's so bad O.O). Still!! I highly recommend this series, it's fantastic and I dearly love Mr. Bates and Anna, they're so fantastic and lovely and GAH THE SUSPENSE!!!

Anyways though, talk to you guys later!!

Hiya!

Hey everyone!!

How've you been, how's your week been so far? It's Friday!! Grab a hot drink, kick up your feet, and come hang out a while, you've earned it!

To everyone who's past or still working on midterms, well done and best of luck to all of you!! You can get through this, I promise!!

Something I learned at Blue Lake last summer was to think of your day and/or week as a sandwich of sorts; instead of seeing only the bad stuff, change how you're looking at it so everyday is at least one good thing, then one bad thing, and then another good thing.

An example- today, something good that happened was I discovered a new drink combination!! If you combine Sierra Mist and peach-mango Crystal Light energy drink mix, the product is this really nice tasting mango pop. A bad thing was that combination accidentally spilled all over the inside of my bag, resulting in a faint peach-mango smelling disaster. However, the other good thing was I got it cleaned up, and I'm now relaxing in a local cafe, tea in hand and Les Miserables (25th Anniversary version) playing in my laptop.

Next time you're thinking of your day in a negative light, try to find at least good things that happened that day, and presto!! Your day might not have been as bad as you think.

Anyways though, I must bid you all adieu, but keep being awesome, have an fantastic weekend, and stay shiny!!! (I'm OBSESSED with Firefly, BTW, it's one of my latest addiction!! :D)
