April Showers Bring Me to Study....

Hi all,
Today so far has been a rainy day and I love it. I know I have said this before but there is something about a grey color sky, that brings out all the other colors and makes the world look a little bit brighter. That being said, nothing beats a hot summer day, but with finals looming over me and needing to study I find this weather is helping to sit inside and study!

Today I want to share a few quotes that have helped and inspired me in the last few months.
The first one I want to share, is a thought provoking one for me. It actually has inspired my new phrase for the rest of this year and my life and here is the quote:

The phrase that I am now going to try and live by is: I am going to face my fears head on. I am sick of having an over active brain because it builds unneeded fear in my life. So what I am wanting to do is be braver than I think I am and fight through my fears. To let my heart win my head and its thoughts.
The next thought made my day, I found it shortly after I broke up, and it made me smile and it is a true thought.

Now I am not saying my ex was negative but I did have a lot of negative unneeded worries in my life that were brought on by that relationship and has I have healed and moved on, it is true positive people and thoughts have returned to my life.
The last one I am going to share with you is something that I say, and haven't been able till now to articulate it as well as this:

I love how it says laugh at the confusion, because sometimes it is easy to get made at it and not want it, but laughing at it helps ease the frustration of it.

Doesn't this picture of the blossoms on the tree make you smile? It has me and it is a tree I walk by every morning and it means warm weather is here to stay!!
I need to get back to studying for my finals!
As always thanks for reading!

I Can Not Fall Asleep...

Hi,
I know it has been sometime since I have written on this blog. I feel bad. Tonight I have tried and failed miserably with falling asleep. I have tried many techniques, and nothing seems to be working. I know later today I will be paying for it. I just cannot figure out why I am not falling asleep. (Must be something in the air)
I have a few quotes that I want to share with you:
Here they are:

 I really like this one because it is things we should all do. I would like to say instead of regret nothing, it should be regret nothing that made you smile.  The next quote is by Dr. Suess and it is a good one.

I think maybe the real reason I am not able to fall asleep is I have so much on my mind lately and also I have been having dreams lately with my Ex-boyfriend in them... okay they are more like nightmares, and I cannot handle them...Then I guess I should update you all on my life. I am in my last week of classes before finals week. Next Wednesday is my last final. I am excited for summer to begin. I am looking for a part-time job, and right at the moment am having no luck. I know there is brighter days ahead, I just need to keep my head up. I also don't really have any fun summer plans and I am scared for my future. I don't know if I am going to move or if I am going to stay where I am at.
So many choices and I feel so lost.... I promise to keep you all updated.

As always, Thanks for reading!

Warm Weather and Happy Spirits

Hi all,
I am in love with the warm springtime weather, I just want to be outside all day long and playing and just enjoying the beauty that is to be found in this amazing world. I am in the mood lately to just sit and stare at the blue sky and I wish I had the freedom of a bird that could fly anywhere in this world. I also have an urge deep in me to run through a field of flowers, kind of like this one. (I love this picture) I wish I could

run through this field wearing a sun dress and let my long blond hair flow in the air. I just want to run and to be free to twirl around and enjoy the moment. Maybe, I should add that to my bucket list.

A while back I made mention of a bucket list which I was putting together,  and in reviewing my blog I realized I haven't posted it. Truth be known, I am still working on it.  Today I want to post the first 25 things I want to do. So here they are:
