Things I Accomplished This Year
Because yes, this was an overall horrible year emotionally, but there was a ton of awesome, and I think I should acknowledge that.
Got my teaching credential
Got a Master’s Degree
Got a full time teaching job
Got out of several bad relationships (this tore me up, but I’ll count them as wins)
Paid off my credit cards
Let go of Disney and made room for free time
Overall, a pretty...
I am too awesome to worry about missing you.
Guys, I think cleaning might make me manic.
My new idea
todotodone:
It seems to me that I prefer to have done things than to have things to do. So I am going to catalog my achievements rather than my list. At any given moment, I have 30 things to do. So as long as I’m doing one of them, I’m being productive. A growing “done” list may be more rewarding than a shrinking “to do” list.
If this works, I’m writing a book.
For the confused,
When I say “Beff,” I’m not crazy. It’s what my BFF and I call each other. Her name is Jessica. She has a tumblr, too.
Also I have three Jessicas. Two of them are two of my best friends. Don’t worry so much about that part.
I may be older.
Yes I’m 25. But I still put out snacks for Santa and the reindeer. I’m getting sassy with it though, I left the reindeer a green onion and some squishy blueberries, and for Santa, an apple. I hope they still eat them.
And you better believe I’ll be asleep in the next 5 seconds so Santa still comes.
Merry Christmas!!!
I'm bored.
Should I move to San Francisco or DC?
Hell yes, San Francisco.
Beat Seattle. Beat Pete Carroll. This feels way too good.

I just got my grades.
Looks like I finished grad school with a 3.98 GPA. Dammit, Laurence! So close to perfect.
But if grades are in, that means my thesis is officially accepted and I’m really done, right? Merry Christmas!

This is my favorite set:
You can choose to be positive, even in negative situations.
There is a pause between a behavior and your reaction. Focus on that pause, react with dignity.
Being in a relationship is not the most important and worthwhile part of you.
Treat people with kindness. It’s beneficial to all involved.
If you have children, make them your #1 priority. Put...
It’s not even that funny, but I could watch these women sit in a chair for two hours and I would still laugh. So watchable.

Still, go Girl Scouts!
“If a child identifies as a girl and the child’s family presents her as a girl, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her as a Girl Scout,” the chapter said in a statement.
It is so strange to me that you ever existed.
