My hands are frostbite (practically)

I had popcorn chicken today. It made me happy. I feel like the entire day flew by. I hate it when that happens. Granted, I had class from 11-4 today, but still. Plus, I finally sent (one of) the piece(s) of mail off today that I've been meaning to for...well, forever. My fingernails are still long. Is it my pessimistic attitude that keeps telling me to chop them off before they break? My english teacher doesn't seem like someone I'd easily get along with. He doesn't tell us stuff. It's very frustrating to someone like me. I'm going to a few meetings tomorrow. I'm excited if, for nothing else, to learn some new things. I'm going to the spring activities fair at the school and then later to a study abroad meeting and then to our young couples group at night. Very exciting. Then again, I have lots to do in between those things, but I'm still pretty excited. What to say? I've been working on my resume. It's taking a lot longer than I thought it would (but that's been happening a lot lately...and I getting slower?) My skin is getting pretty dry. It's not the best feeling thing ever, but I'll live. I have a list of three things on my birthday list thusfar. We'll see how that goes. I may end up just buying them for myself. Muahaha (that's my most evil laugh) My mom and I have been reading through Captivating together. I'm glad to be reading it again (and able this time to be able to think for a little while when I feel the need). It's a very intriguing book. Yost and I finally finished The Prayer of Jabez book (even though it's only 7 chapters long). We're still in the process of trying to catch up on the Read the Bible in a Year Bible (we're only a few days behind. It's just so hard when we seemingly rarely see eachother...and it's definitely not at the same time each day so it's hard to know when to read). I've set aside The Motley Fool book (I'm a few chapters away from finishing that one) for now so that I can read Taking Charge of Your Fertility. Very intriguing book. I'm learning a lot more about my own body than I'd ever thought I'd know...and I like it. I'm only on the 3rd chapter of that one (and it's, like, 500 pages long...so I'm hoping to finish it by mid-February). We'll see how that goes. I'm sick of doing hours of homework each day. It annoys me. I'm sick of things taking longer than they should. I'm sick of Merlin hating me. However, I was starting to think that he had an infection (he looked deadly), but he looks perfectly fine now. If only I could find a way to make him look like he's not always frowning... What else? I'm wondering where I've changed. I used to be pretty extroverted and quite crazy (dress, hair, accessories, actions, etc) but now I'm not. I don't know if I should feel I've lost a part of me or not, but...I don't. Sometimes I still feel the urge to do something very irrational or something out-of-place, but... I don't know. I find myself no longer thinking much about the future, but just trying to get through today (is that a good thing or not?) I still get great pleasure out of chapstick and stickers. I doubt that will ever change. God bless and Good Night.
