The Things of Life


Well, I was doing fairly well writing here for a time. Seems like the last few posts make me not want to come back and write more. What depressing topics. Yeesh. But anyhow, 2010 has been a fabulous year so far, and we're not going to allow a few trivial happenings to alter that. Even if it certainly seems like they could. Something we must always remember is that we are the master of our own feelings. Sure, it's difficult to change the way we feel about something, or someone, but it is quite possible. Not without effort though. Being angry, upset, or sad doesn't change anything (upon other things, my best friend moved 4 hours away and neglected to actually tell me). It merely wastes your precious time. Someone please be sure to remind me of this upon occasion. You don't even have to be nice about it.

Alas, this is not to be a philosophical or insightful post. This is simply one to get back into the habit of writing here again. It's almost exactly two months till I leave for university. Eight weeks, one-half of a semester. It's going to be here so fast. It's time to start gathering things to take with me, and begin ordering dorm essentials, like those extra-long sheets, a throw rug, and a memory foam mattress cover. There's so much to do, and so much I want to do, with very, very little time! (Time seems to be a reoccurring theme throughout my blog posts doesn't it?)

As you all know from the title of this blog, the beach is where I call home. Too bad when you live here you don't really get to see it that much! Next week (aka 4 days!) a bunch of my Thunderhead friends will be here for a time they've aptly dubbed "Thunderweek". I can't wait, even though I only get 2 full days off to have with everyone. I'm quite looking forward to all of this. I'm also looking forward to seeing the new Eclipse movie at the midnight premiere with one of my besties!

Anyhow, seeing as I've nothing more to really say right now (or I'm too tired to think of anymore), it's time to call it a night. Tomorrow bring the morning shift at work, and maybe an hour at the beach before class tomorrow night. It's gonna be a long day!

Peace,
Elina

PS: If you haven't heard the new album from The High Kings titled Memory Lane, go order it now. Yes, it's a pricey import from Ireland but 100% worth every penny.

This charming cottage is someplace in Ireland. It looks like precisely the place I'd love to be right now.
