Too often recently, I've gotten bogged down by how competitive our world has become.
Then at a family dinner this past weekend, words came out of my mouth from nowhere how excited I was at the unlimited possibilities in front of me.
(A lesson in attitude.)
The stream of facts in this video are mind blowing.
I know, I say a lot of things are 'mind-blowing' but seriously, this time I'm serious ;)
The future is overwhelming, but oh-so exciting!
Thanks to the cutest scientist in the world, Krystyna! xo
In other news, I received 2 blog awards from my new Provhoe girl crush, Meg.
I recall a post I read once (can't remember where! dang) that questioned where the H blog awards come from and what their purpose serves...
but you know what, it's still midterms time and I will take any positivity I can get! Thank you sweetheart!
So do I pass them off or something? Ok...
1) To Chelsea Talks Smack...because she's clever and angst-y, and I dig that.
2) To Turralurr...because Chipman Hall 3219 is where it was at 4 years ago. One of my first great memories was when she, an upstate NY native, properly stymied my excitement at the first snowfall of Fall 2005, as she fell over laughing at my "Is this a blizzard?!" query.
3) To Alli- my very first friend down when we lived at the beach...(I had a CHARMED childhood). When she was at NYU, she worked at a really swank hotel, once delivering a steak to Snoop Dogg's room at 3AM. Now she courageously chronicles her battle with cancer.
Please send her love and prayers.
4) To Courtney Elle...we were actually baptized together on the same day way back when (along with Kristen who is serving a mission in Mongolia)...and we're going to live in Hawaii together next year. Love her!!!
5) Paige. Because she's the definition of precious with her ample use of the word 'precious' and I feel terrible I haven't been to two of her parties this semester. AH.
6) Martha. We've kind of woven in and out of each others lives since fall of freshman year, when she was living with my beach volleyball buddy friend Tresa. I like her mind.
And all of my Comms friends (@courtney, @kate, @sponge, @mle, @rica, @yecart, @lumanizer, @siovhan, ETC), consider yourself also knighted.
Actually, everyone who is still reading this post, please feel free to take! I hate excluding people. XO
