Hercules: Aren't you... a damsel in distress?

Tantor: But Mom! What about Bacteria?

Yzma: Ah, how shall I do it? Oh, I know. I'll turn him into a flea, a harmless, little flea, and then I'll put that flea in a box, and then I'll put that box inside of another box, and then I'll mail that box to myself, and when it arrives Muahahahahahaha! I'll smash it with a hammer!

 I felt that my last few blog posts have been rather, how shall I put this, on the spitefully bitter side.  So in an effort to shake things up a bit I am going to try and be more positive in these musings.  Hence the funny and lovely quotes from some of my all time favorite movies to get the ball rolling.  Don't get me wrong... my life hasn't suddenly turned into rainbows and butterflies.  I still deal with the Dementor and now Umbridge... and Umbridge's cousin, we'll call her Milfred, on a daily basis.  I'm going to have to deal with the huge hole graduating has left in my soul once school starts up in a week.  I'm having issues sleeping.  And I'm still working on keeping my emotions in check because they're bloody ridiculous and stupid.  BUT in spite of all those things I am still focusing on the positives! Go me. 

Positive 1)  I'm back into my gym routine.  It's only been two weeks consecutively... but I'm fairly certain I'm making it a lasting habit this time.  I walk about three miles daily.  Some faster than others depending on my mood and which movie they're showing in the work out theatre (it really is the coolest part of the whole gym.  Giant movie screen in a dark room with workout equipment.  It's a little slice of heaven for movie buffs such as myself.  Not to mention I feel less self-conscious running in the dark.  Less wobbly bits to be seen).  Though I am proud of my progress... the other day a guy gets on next to me.. and busts out a 6 minute mile.  He's running at 9 mph like it's a jaunt through the park.  And all I could think was... that guy would be able to survive a zombie apocalypse.  I would not.

Positive 2)  I bought new shoes.  Which may seem unimportant.. however, they were on sale.  Originally $30.  I paid $9.  They're not exactly practical and I can't wear them to work, but they're very pretty.  Black patten leather pumps.  I like things on sale.  Of course then I went and bought a skirt that wasn't on sale... but I CAN wear it to work.  Yay!  This was at Target.  I went in to buy a windshield wiper.  

Positive 3)  I have to clean the entirety of my apartment Wednesday.  You may be wondering how this is a positive.  Well, first of all, while I am cleaning I get to listen to an audio book my coworker is letting me borrow.  It's the sequel to this amazing book called A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness.  I never mentioned reading it on here because it was during a stint when I read about 6 books in two weeks.  I was obsessed.  So now I get to clean while being entertained.  Secondly, it means people are visiting!!! My Nana and Papa are coming over this weekend.  I haven't seen them since graduation!  Yay for free food and not coming home to an empty lonely desolate house (I really need to buy a fish).

Positive 4)  School's starting again.  Why do I care about something I no longer pay a bazillion dollars to attend? Because Michael is coming back!!! Yay.  I get to see him this Wednesday night (that's tomorrow... ahhh).  Sure, it'll be helping him unpack his life into a tiny room on campus, but I get to actually spend time with my boyfriend.  It's quite exciting.  That's not sarcasm.  I'm for real excited.  (It also means Pointless is back.  And let's be honest... I missed them.  Beautiful music is so in my future.  I just hope they find some quality guys to replace the ones they lost this last year... fingers crossed.)  

Positive 5)  I'M GOING TO DISNEYLAND WITH MY MOM IN TWO WEEKS. enough said.

Positive 6)  I have some of the BEST best friends in the whole world.  They know why they're amazingly awesome... but I'll share a few reasons with you.  They help me make complex wardrobe decisions.  They listen to me spew out enough word vomit to fill an NFL stadium.  They're honest with me.  They let me know when they're proud of me and give me words of encouragement and/or compliments.  They don't put up with my self-sabotaging BS.  They ask for and care about my opinion.  They trust me.  And most of all they love me for me.  I am beyond blessed.  Thank you.


I think that's enough positivity for one day.  I'm exhausted.  Until next time... you have one positive day!
