Jaron and the Long Road to Love, Psychology, Marathon

Jaron and the Long Road to Love. So far, it's not that long of a road. I love them already! The lead singer has an amazing voice, and I think I have a new favorite break out artist. He'll definitely get bigger as time goes on, I hope. The song "I hope you hit traffic" is really good.

Tonight I went to the psychology program opening social. I had a good time, met some new people, and hopefully will get more involved with the psychology club after this. Just so you know, my psychology professors are the best. They're all very intelligent, and most of them are really good teachers.

Dixie's homecoming centennial ball is next week... I'm deciding whether I want to go or not. I'd rather go with someone if I went, but I doubt that will happen.

I have just decided. I'm not really an optimist. I think I'm far more a realist. One of my teachers put it this way: the optimist sees the glass half full, the pessimist sees the glass half empty, and the realist sees a glass with water in it.

Keith Urban always makes me feel better. "I'll be over you and on with my life. So take your records, take your freedom. Take your memory I don't need em. Take your space and all your reasons... In fact I'll feel a whole lot better... You'll think of me."

I'm loving having music back on my computer :) It makes me feel so much better knowing I can choose what I want to listen to. I need music. It's always been something that's a type of healing therapy to me. Piano, listening to certain genres when I'm in certain moods... I think everyone does that though.

Wow... I must be tired... And I get to wake up at 4 tomorrow morning! ....Yay? At least its for a good cause. I love volunteering at the marathon. Every year, I always meet some awesome person that needs help or just stops to talk for a moment. Some people travel so far to come to the marathon too. I can't imagine travelling that far to go running.

It's crazy. Life's insane. And I'm feeling good about everything now. Finally.

Simple Happiness

I think I am in love with Keith Urban's music! Honestly, those of you who have never listened to him must because he is simply amazing! I recently changed my ringtone to "I'm In," by, guess who? Keith Urban. Just thought I'd let you know that. Seriously though, his music is peaceful and so beautiful. I'm actually learning how to play "Tonight I Wanna Cry" on the piano. Since it's usually played on the piano, it actually sounds pretty good. I want to memorize this song. For me, this is quite a task to take upon myself since I am terrible at memorizing. The only song I was ever able to memorize completely was this Christmas song a few years back that I played constantly. So, my goal may be unreachable, but I'll still try to reach it.

Children are amazing. I've actually been thinking about kids a lot lately. Is that weird? I don't think so... not too weird at least. Today though, I had plenty of reason to think. I went to a baby shower for a friend and then later babysat these two adorable little boys. Shopping for the baby clothes and then playing with the little boys made me excited to think that someday I will want to have a family of my own... Not soon. A long ways in the future, hopefully. But some day... And they will be adorable little children. And I will be happy.

My eyes are practically dying, so I guess that means I should end this post. Goodnight!
