I've realized that I need to stop confusing reality with stories. 

I mean, I know the difference between the two. I just have to stop applying things that help me write my stories, or happens in my stories, to real life. I figured that is why I'm so frustrated lately.

It's just that people I thought I knew are doing things that I never thought that they would. I need to understand, and I'm not!

I feel as though I am boned, or close to boned on my presentation tomorrow. I have all of my information, I just need a swift kick in the butt to send me on my merry way.

It doesn't help that I feel like I'm getting sick again and my mental state isn't strong enough to want to go through with all of this right now.

I feel like if I get enough of it done tonight then tomorrow I can just clean it up and fix whatever I need to fix.

One step at a time, right?

Cause for a smile:

I actually did get a lot accomplished today.

The one major thing that is glaring me in the face is this presentation.

Well, I have over half a day to get through with it. And then just talk for 20 minutes.

Positive attitude.

Also, I just created a folder that is hanging on my wall. It has SPRING BREAK 2010 written on it.

It is my motivation!

Yay!

But I have a quote for you all. It is something that I try to live by. 

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. - Herm Albright.

So, I'm trying to figure out people's intentions. Like, why people do what they do. I guess it has to do with the writer in me and needing to know what goes on in everyone's head.

I'm saying this because people are making decisions and doing things that I thought they would never do. But here they are, surprising the crap out of me.

People that I thought were my best friends...

But I do what I always do in times like this.

I push it back.

And to quote my friend, "Yeah, because that's healthy."

I'm sure you can hear him rolling his eyes.

But, it's how I deal.

It's just the fact that I can't understand, it's causing me so much grief...

I seriously feel like I'm getting sick over it.

I wouldn't be surprised...

Community Stories:

So, I was supposed to set two intentions... or something... for my weekend. Lockdown and focus. I have a horrible week coming ahead of me, and if I can make it through, then I'm home free.

Or at least as home free as I can be.

I talked to my professor today about how nervous I am about my future and everything...

I want to know why it's so easy for me to tell her the struggles that I'm going through, but I can't even fathom saying anything revealing to my mom and dad.

I guess I'm just so use to playing the role of the obedient daughter that I don't know what else to do.

Stress...

Cause for a smile:

Community stories.

I've been so stressed out and frustrated lately that it has brought me to the brink of tears multiple times lately. This class is one of my outlets.

I finally got to hang out with one of my friends that I haven't seen in awhile. Granted, I've been avoiding him, but honestly, he is one of my best outlets.

Telling him about all of my stress nearly brought me to tears again today...

Gosh, I'm so emotional.

But I honestly needed it...

I thank God for these amazing friends that he's surrounded me with.

And now I'm tired...

Good night
