|  Today's Mood: 
Defined:
So
lack of sleep was apparently my main
problem yesterday! I got caught up
with
sleep, and now I'm much better. Yea for
chic flicks, nap time, and roses (they
make me happy)!!!!
I'd love to chat about my happy
mood
and the wonders of great sleep, but I must
go study for two tests
that I have tomorrow.
Wish me good memories as I cram!!! (Yea
for
procrastination!!!)
I also need to talk to Blake. He says 'hello' to
all. Work just can't get done without Blake
time first. I love him so much!
I would take time to talk to you too, Rachel,
before I studied for a test, but you never call
me.  I love you anyways and miss you terribly.
We'll chat soon!

|  Today's Mood: 
Defined:
Today has just been a blah day. Do you ever have those?
My schedule hasn't been crazy and my life is not that difficult,
but never the less, I have been in a blah mood the last couple days.
Is it selfish to feel in a blah mood, to have no desire to do anything but
sleep or lounge around? Maybe it is, but never the less, here I am: no desire
to do anything. Maybe it's because I haven't been sleeping well; maybe it's because
of the last eight weeks of school that have been overloaded with work and study. Or, it
very well could be the fact that I am 450 miles away from my boyfriend, my family,
many of my friends, and my home church. Whatever the cause(s), I'm in a blah
mood today. I took the time to watch You Got Mail, a classic chic flick for all
chic flick movie lovers. Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks - a happy couple to lift
any mood, or does it really? Don't get me wrong, I love the movie and
haven't watched it since it came out, but in all honesty, do chic flicks
truly make one happier, or do they leave one with a sense of
emptiness and sorrow, as if one's life cannot be complete
without that perfect someone, in the perfect setting, in
which everyone has the perfect body, and a one of
those "happily ever after" endings. In my own
life, I do have that perfect relationship, and
I am looking forward to our "happily ever
after" ending, but months do not fly by
with the change of a scene, and I am
not even in the same state as the one I
love, for the time being. Blake and I make
the most of the time we get to talk on the phone
and the moments we get to see each other, but we
are both ready for this phase in life to be past, to bring
in a new phase of life together. But getting back to chic flicks,
I don't want to harp on any particular movie, and don't think that
I am not crazy about girls night filled with yummy snacks and classic
movies, I just want to communicate my opinion that chic flicks really won't
change one's mood in and of itself. Even with a beautiful story line, a dramatic
climax, a surprise twist, and a romantic happily ever after, chic flicks are not the mood
cure-all. In fact, without a good mood to begin with, chic flicks very well may worsen
your mood altogether, making you realize that you're probably just an average
Jane with problem areas you can't afford to cover up with trips to the spa and
the plastic surgeon, and you may not have that perfect romance, and even
if you do, your good days come along with your blah days to. So yea for
blah days. Yea for chic flicks. May they truly allow us to cherish the
blessings we do have in the moments when our moods are happy.
