Looking on the bright side.

Today has not been a good day.  Last night I stayed up until Two o'clock AM studying for a quiz in my painting class.  So naturally, getting up at six thirty in the morning felt like the hardest thing to do..ever.  Somehow though I was eventually able to drag myself out of bed, get ready for class, AND walk there on time to take the quiz.  And then I failed.  Yep! I got a D. After all that studying and staying up late..I failed.  Luckily my teacher is awesome and said that whatever grade we received we could raise a whole grade higher so I actually ended up with a C, but it was still a big bummer. 

After that, I walked back to my dorm, crawled under my covers, and slept for three more hours before my next class.  When I woke up I was feeling a little bit better.  More rested with only a minor headache..(Int seems like I'm never without them anymore).  I turned on my lap top to check my email and I finally got the news on the mail room position that I've been waiting for.  I think it went something like this: "Sorry but, nope!"  I have been waiting and PRAYING and hoping and praying and waiting and praying some more that I would get that job.  It seemed perfect...and out of the twenty or more applications and resumes I have submitted to different places,  it was the only place that has even responded.  I was/am so frustrated and discouraged.  I'm not even sure what to do now. 

But although all this..crap happened today and I feel small and lonely and like my eyes might just start leaking at any moment, I am trying to focus on some good things instead..So I am going to list them!

1.  It's December. aka: CHRISTMAS!
2.  I have ONE day of school left.
3.  All my projects are done and turned in early.
4.  I have no finals.
5.  I get to be at home from DEC 8th to January...something.  (Not quite sure yet.)
6.  I turn 21 in nine days.
7.  I ate green beans today.
8.  And....it's CHRISTMAS time! (because it deserves to be on here twice.)
