Today was one of the most relaxing days I've had in weeks. I stayed in bed all day. Watched a little NCIS. Got a little Mc-D's... it's been a real nothing day. I'm lovin it. I needed some Valentine's Day rehab. Yesterday was not a good day.
Moving on, though, now that I'm all better, I will take my Genetics exam and rock it out. I will move on with my life and focus on things that push me in a better direction. I will move on with my life. That's my final decision. I might finish out this day in the laziest fashion possible, but tomorrow will be a new beginning for me. I know it.
And now I'm off to do the homework that I've been putting off like a mopey fool for the past week. Progress starts here.

Swing, Swing: The All American Rejects
It's really strange how you can be around so many people all day long and, at the end of the day, still feel like you're completely alone. I don't know where it comes from or why that happens. And I don't like complaining about things on here, but I feel like I have to get this out somewhere. And right now I feel like it's easier to type it out than verbally spit it out. I'm not feeling myself, and I've actually been channeling Holden Caulfield (which makes me feel at least a little MAJORLY insane). Ian and I broke up one week ago. Although I know, based on our schedules and where our brains are at now, that this is probably for the best for the time being. But it's still heartbreaking. I'll get back in the swing of things soon enough, though, I'm sure. Positive thinking can change everything, right? Positive thinking... positive thinking.
Anyway, I know that wasn't exactly the most uplifting post. But I had to get it out.

101 important things about me... that maybe you DIDN'T know:
