“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.”

Mittens

Well. I just fell out of the blogosphere loop for about a month.
But thats okay. Because I did some pretty splendid stuff in that month.

We visited Adam on his birthday.


I snuggled with my kitty.


I cleaned my room ever so beautifully.
But sadly it doesn't stay this way for over a week.


Organized my closet...





Found out I have a ridiculous obsession with blue and yellow.


Also yellow bags.


I stepped on Alese's perfectly vacuumed floor. heh heh. 


She was mad. 


I got my book signed by the one and only CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI!!


(he's the author of these marvelous books)


Went to Megan's bridal shower. And only took one picture.
Naturally it had to do with Pride & Prejudice.
Ahhhhh. Sorry, but this was the most exciting thing at the bridal shower.
SWOONING.


Oh yes.
How can I forget.
I also got to see my bestest friends in the world.
I love them. 
I'll post a picture.
IF I get them from Bro0oke.

Also... I BOUGHT MITTENS.
And for some strange reason, I went crazy with them.
I blame the dessert from Chilis at 10 pm. WAY too late for sugar.
And the fact that they are lined with wool from heaven. I'm sure of it.
It's softer than a newly born sheep (cause obviously I would know).

I made up several mitten dances,
one of which is titled "the mitten crotch grab."
Or the crowd pleaser "the mitten worm."
I played mittens with Kate.
I wore mittens for over an hour.While inside Adams house.
And danced to Shakira.


You just had to be there.
And be on a sugar high.
And have your own mittens.

So as you can see, my month has been quite productive.
Even if I'll most likely fail my math class.
And barely pass my German course.
But honestly I could care less.
Because I'm happy.
Hollah! Hurray for happiness and ignorance.
