Don't worry, be happy.

Reasons for my state of happiness right meow:

Snooki & JWOWW Show; 
They're hilarious- remind me of my friends.

Clementine; 
My new, 12 week orange kitten that my super hot boyfriend bought me.

Detroit Red Wings' Game;
I went with three of my favorite people & then searched for our car for literally 45 minutes

Brianna's hair;
I wish mine was long and colored like hers! Mad jealous.

Chegg; 
For sending me a Red Bull with a note that says: "Nobody ever wishes they'd slept more during college."

Hansel & Gretel - Witch Hunters;
Hello?! That movie comes out this Friday. I am beyond excited!

My Boyfriend/5 Months;
That's right.. On Saturday, Alex has been my boyfriend for five months. I love him too much! :)

Naps; 
They make me a better person.

My Brother;
He seriously is one of my best friends. We've become closer over the years and I'm thankful for all the hilarious memories we have together. I know he has my back and I will always have his.

My Parents;
I am incredibly blessed to have parents like them who love me and support me no matter what. I know I can come to them about anything without being judged or looked down upon. I don't think many girls my age have that in their lives. It makes me so thankful. It also makes me happy that they allowed Alex to buy me a kitten, they fixed my laptop and got me a hello kitty laptop case.

Song-Writing;
I've been writing a lot lately about past and present experiences. It just an easy way for me to express myself in a way that I love.

Pretty Little Liars - TV Show;
Probably one of the most intense, dragged out tv shows of my life. Regardless, I'm addicted!

Wild Card by Lora Leigh;
Just finished it the other day! Would recommend it for the fans of Fifty Shades. It's an adult romance book, but something about it reminded me of Nicholas Sparks & Fifty Shades combined. I really liked it!

Shine bright like a diamond.

You’re a shooting star I see, a vision of ecstasy.
When you hold me, I’m alive.
We’re like diamonds in the sky.

I choose to be happy.

I know this is totally cliche and I'll probably get made fun of for it, but whatever- judge me, I'm over it.

Thankfully, next week is the end of the semester. I'm just praying I did good enough. I started to slack in the middle of the semester. I can't give a reason why. I think I just got bored really quickly.

I officially have a second job! I'm excited to start training. I'll be a hostess/server, which should be fun. I enjoyed being a server at one of my previous jobs.

The boy passed his basic skill teaching test which is extremely exciting. It's another step in his journey which makes me extremely happy and proud. :) He's been doing a lot for a twenty-one year old.. He's taking five classes, working every day from 3-10pm, a second job every once & awhile on the weekends strictly and he's on an ice hockey team- which plays every Sunday. I'm incredibly thankful that he makes time for me and I have the opportunity to see him every day. Even if it's just a homework date, it still means the world. He's my world now and I couldn't be happier about it.

Papa Bear and I made a deal that if he sells the F150 (my dream truck), he has to buy me a kitten. A man is coming to look at the truck at 3:30pm today.. it's a good thing I filled out an adoption application at Petco yesterday! Just waiting to get approved and to see if the man likes the truck, but who wouldn't?!

I've also found that not everyone in life is going to be your fan. It's impossible to please everyone and I've been working on my life & getting it where I want it, regardless of who gets in my way. Plus- those who talk behind my back, obviously have nothing better to do. Why worry? I'm too busy smiling. :)

I have a lot of concerts to attend within the next few months: Zac Brown Band, Maroon 5, Luke Bryan, Taylor Swift, Kenny Chesney. Clearly, I've been digging country more and more lately.

I should probably do my online exam & start wrapping presents!

All those fairy-tales are full of it
