Goals

My birthday was so wonderful!!! I was beginning to think that nobody cared about it, but God took me by surprise.

I've been realizing more and more that some things I learned in counseling have slipped my mind. One thing my counselor told me was that I needed to get rid of my expectations. Whenever I have expectations and they don't pan out the way I want, I can get really frustrated and let it affect everything. When I was conciously making an effort to have no expectations, I was much happier and things were much better, but I seemed to have forgotten all about that. That's something I'm definitely going to have to work harder to achieve.

So, I decided that I'm going to run a 5k. I'm going to do it. It's my summer goal. For some reason, I want to love running. Now, I understand that I am not good at running, but I want to be good at it. I want running to be my escape from everything. Therefore, I figure if I have a goal, I will be much more likely to find this love for running deep down inside me... and become better at it.

6 days til engagement pictures! I seriously am so excited about this. I keep talking to Teaven about what we will wear, and I think he's a little annoyed. Thank God he loves me. :)

23 days til my last final. holy. cow. I cannot believe that time passes so quickly.
