three things i've discovered this week:
-according to studies, happiness and the ability to be happy in life is based on these three factors: 50% genetics, 40% action/choosing to be optimistic, 10% life circumstances. isn't that neat? i'm making a strong effort to be a more positive person this year and focusing on being happy and doing things that make me happy. i think it's interesting to know that such a little percent of happiness depends on what you're actually going through in life. so even if you're having a real awful time of it, there are still things that can make you happy.
-there are 95.9 million single americans currently..so i'm not the only one?! i'd say that's pretty encouraging as well. although i'm pretty happy with things i wouldn't complain if i happened to stumble upon a manfriend. apparently there's a lot of them out there!
-i think that i'm absolutely going to love my advertising class. in fact, i'm pretty optimistic about all of my classes this semester, but especially this one. my professor is very excited about teaching and she used to do p.r. work for the government in dc..which in case you aren't caught up, i very much want to do some day. i thought that was pretty grand.
so there's that. this week wasn't half bad afterall.

two thousand and ten.
it's a new year.
i'm happy, but also a little sad. this past year went by crazy fast and i don't know how that even happened?!
i think that i'm overly stressed about things, but i have no idea what they are. do you ever just have that feeling? i feel sort of sickly and my stomach gets twisty a lot more and i just think i need to re-center myself and focus on being calm and optimistic.
for that reason, this year i am going to learn to practice yoga. i think that learning about how to breathe "properly" and focus on my posture and muscle movements will help me to be a calmer, healthier person. and i'm pretty excited about doing it! it's going to be a good change for me, i think.
this is the first semester that i'm going into with a major already declared. i'm pretty thrilled about that. i think this semester will be good for me.
to be totally honest, i'm not ready in the least to go back to classes later this week, but i'm going to make the best of it and enjoy the madness!
on another note, i spent most of my christmas money shopping today. and it felt good. real good. there were many sales and i'm not gonna lie, i got some pretty fabulous stuff. so there.
