Massive Catchup!

Oh goodness. What a wonderful vacation :) Time for massive catchup on the 30 Day Challenge.

Day 24 of the 30 Day Challenge: Something you could never get tired of doing.
Reading. I'll never tire of it. Some people are bored by books and reading. Not me, though. There's an Emily Dickinson poem that states "There is no frigate like a book/ to take us lands away". I think that pretty much sums it up. I read because it takes me to other worlds, other situations, and other people. Sometimes its nice to escape reality for a while.

Day 25 of the 30 Day Challenge: What's in your purse?
-Wallet (with a driver's license, insurance card, and student ID)
-house keys (to my house here at school and my house in Georgia)
-granola bar (incase get hungry)
-chapstick (I never leave the house without it)
-small notepad
-pen and pencil

Day 26 of the 30 Day Challenge: A problem that you've had.
Agh. I stress way too much for my own good. My friends here tease me about it, but its a bit of a problem. I stress over little things that I honestly have no control over. I'm working on it. But its a slow process. I need to learn not to stress about the big picture. Planning ahead is never a bad thing, but there is a right way to do it. Not stressing over the things I have absolutely no control over is not the way to do it. So, I take everything in baby steps. Just one day or one week at a time. I have plans for the next few months, but they'll fall into place when they're supposed to.

Day 27 of the 30 Day Challenge: Something that you miss.
I miss how simple high school felt. Making friends was easy- you were surrounded by the exact same people every single day. Getting good grades was easy- you went to the same class every day for an hour and your teachers actually cared about you doing well. Dating was easy(-ier)- you saw the person everyday and chances are, they lived five minutes from you. I love college, don't get me wrong. I'm having an amazing time and Charleston is such a great city to be in. I wouldn't change any aspects of my life for anything. But sometimes, everything is just so complicated.
