“Learn to like what doesn't cost much.
Learn to like reading, conversation, music.
Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
Learn to like fields, trees, brooks, hiking, rowing, climbing hills.
Learn to like people, even though some of them may be different...different from you.
Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction doing your job as well as it can be done.
Learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs.
Learn to like gardening, puttering around the house, and fixing things.
Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of rain on the roof and windows, and the gentle fall of snow on a winter day.
Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.”

Completely useless

1. Leaves changing colors makes me ridiculously giddy.
2. I listened to the Pride & Prejudice album while walking on campus.
3. Usually craving foods of sorts, today I was craving sweaters, scarves and boots.
4. I am ignoring the fact that my German verb quiz is tomorrow, and writing this instead.
5. I ate a delicious sandwich in the library today. That's not allowed in High School.
6. Rain is the most desired thing at the moment, in the life of Stacie.
7. My friends make me laugh. And I miss them like crazy (Lyss, Ash, Brooke, Cai, Kate (Bro0oke & Mego have disappeared off of the face of the earth))
8. I consumed a cup of fro-yo that was definitely more calories than my sandwich (gross).
9. I want to be hit on by a handsome man. Because i'm cute. But then he'll fall in love with me. Because i'm great.
10. Fake people make me angry. Are you seriously wearing booty shorts, a designer shirt and high-tops with your hair down? At the gym? Please. GO HOME, and stop trying to seduce people.
11. The sky today was incredibly beautiful. And no, I'm not blind, I know it was gray.
12. I've come to the conclusion that every girl deserves a man like Mr. Darcy.
13. Or Mr. Bingley. If you like the less witty men.
