A beautiful moment.


To everyones surprise, it snowed. Alot. 2 inches, and that may not seem like alot to many, but to us Concordians, thats a blizzard. School was cancelled, once again, which I have to say, I was ecstatic about. Not only because I did not have to endure Ginn, my social psychology professor who only talks about sex today, but I was also able to stay in bed. I am not usually one of those stay in bed people, but I have been sick with a bacteria infection since Monday and for me to stay in bed all day, I have seriously felt like crap. I could not bring myself to get out of bed yesterday morning, thanks to my beautiful narcotic cough syrup, which totally knocked me out, so I skipped. And now today, I didn't have to skip. Thank God. The sad part is, I did not get to enjoy the snow the way most did by building snowmen or making snow cream. But I did in fact, enjoy my snow day. The many, long hours of sleep I enjoyed today, had countless snowman dreams. And in my dream instead of 2 inches of snow, there was about 20. A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep. 

I am feeling better, but I still have this nagging ache in my head, and this horrible chain smokish cough. Not to mention the pain my throat is in because of all the hacking. At least I am feeling better. I hate that I am missing church tonight, but I also hate the fact I am missing the planned trip to Rusans. One day. I will get back there. 

Target has been having the best sale. I got a pair of shoes there friday for $4. It was a beautiful moment. 

I have many beautiful moments in my life. Alot lately. One of my favorite beautiful moments, happened last wednesday. I went out to lunch with Amy and Erin, because we never get to see each other anymore, but we refuse to be like other friends who lose contact all together. That will never happen. Anyway, we ate at our favorite restaurant and they surprised me with a gift they bought my in Illinois. I still can't believe they bought what they did. And most who read this, will not even get the sentimental moment. It doesn't matter. They handed me a ring. Not just any ring. A claddagh ring. The most beautiful claddagh ring I have ever seen. See, the claddagh ring I bought when I went to Ireland broke, and I was crushed. It had been my very favorite piece of jewelry for about 5 yrs. Then I received a new one at christmas 2007, which was beautiful too, but since I received it from a person I was dating at the time, once we broke up, instead of it feeling wonderful on my hand, it burned a ring on my finger everytime I put it on. So I stopped wearing it. And they noticed. So while they were in Illinois, they bought me this ring. I seriously could have cried.  After all this time, I thought everyone had forgotten, and what they didn't know, is I had been looking trying to find another, but to much disappointment I just could not find one that fit my personality. This ring though, fits me perfectly. It is even more beautiful than my other rings, even the one I bought myself in Ireland.  I seriously have the most amazing friends. God has blessed me with such amazing people in my life. Friends that I never thought I would have. Friends like these only appear in books, but for some reason, I am blessed to have them in real life and I have no idea why. That has definitely been my favorite beautiful moment of the past week. Anytime I am with my best friends is a beautiful moment. 

Thats all.



There, there, baby, It’s just text book stuff, It’s in the ABC of growing up...
