How about...

... I post something that isn't so much of a downer? Haha. All that stuff was/is true, but MAN!

Matt and I had a nice date last night. We went out for supper, and then headed to Eau Claire for a movie. We were expecting it to be totally dead, like the last time we were there (a Saturday, and it was SO depressing), but it was so DIFFERENT this time! It was alive, and the neat stores were open, and there were people everywhere! Including the movie ticket line, which was HUGE! Doesn't matter though; we got through the line in time to see our movie, The Reader. Neither of us could decide how we felt about the movie. It was another one of those "well, yeah, I enjoyed it while I was watching it, but I wouldn't see it again" kinda movies. I feel like I have been seeing tons of those lately. I'm excited for tomorrow for when Matt and Lo and I go to see Revolutionary Road. I just finished the book, so I'm excited about that one!

Lack of Blog-spiration...

... in the worst way.

I don't really have anything to say.

I could talk about how pained I am to be back at school, especially because I think I know what I want to do and I just want to get on it and not waste my time taking courses that don't interest me IN THE LEAST.

Or about how worried sick I am about not getting accepted into the program I want, after getting my hopes up and getting pumped for it. Worrying mostly here about those darn O-chem and genetics marks from year 2 (gulp).

Or about I'm worried that that worrying is going to lead to a huge weight gain like when I was worried about getting into the U of C (but at least this time I'm prepared for the possiblity).

Or about how I have NO energy and NO motivation to exercise.

Or about how I'm worried that by the time I graduate school, get settled in a career, get married and buy a house I'll be too old to safely or successfully have babies (and I really do want babies someday).

But instead I'll just take a line from the Sunscreen Song (remember it?!?):

"Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as
effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing
bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that
never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm
on some idle Tuesday"

... and try to apply it to my life.

Take a trip back to the 90's and check that song out. It may not be to you, but to me it is so inspirational. I once started a blog entry bolding all the lines I love. I ended giving up because nearly all of the lyrics were bolded. Lol.
