Good things are going to happen

Just keep swimming.

Thanks Ellen/Dory for the little Tuesday motto I (and many people around me) absolutely needed. 

My day started out normally, but everything seemed to just spiral into a bit of a chaos as it went on. 

Let's start off on a positive note: Ed Sheeran's Birthday!!

This is a pic I snapped of the Ginger Jesus two years ago when actually my now roommates and I saw him live at Stage AE. It had to have been one of the best moments I've experienced since living in Pittsburgh. If any of you ever get the chance to see Ed, do it. It is life changing.

After a couple of my normal Tuesday classes, my afternoon one got cancelled. This is the one where we discuss lots of very heavy subject matter, but mixed in with one of my favorite things: music. So, although the class is interesting, I was not complaining when I saw that email announcement.

Okay so I was planning on telling all you guys why today wasn't perfect, why me and a couple friends were not in the best of moods, but I decided not to. And for the sake of reminding myself that life does go on. 

We may worry about an assignment or even something bigger than that, but what we have to realize is that while it's completely normal to be upset about it for a little while (and however you deal with that, make sure it's a healthy way) we have to get back to the present and realize that whatever this is that's making us upset, it's not the end of the world. I looked up in my living room and saw my favorite little art piece hanging, and it gave me a little push I needed to forget about my worries.

A gift from one of my sorority sisters, this canvas is a daily reminder for us to just take a breather sometimes.

I decided then that it was time for a distraction to amp up this little momentum I had. Free movie playing on campus? With popcorn, candy, and let's not forget the FREE part? I'm down.

Horrible Bosses 2!

Okay, if you haven't seen the first one yet, go do that. Then, go watch this sequel. I didn't really know what to expect, but I was not disappointed! My roommate and I were crying laughing throughout the entire thing, and anything with Jamie Foxx in it, I'm a fan. Go see it with a friend or a group of people, and you guys will be thoroughly entertained.

Also, another good thing: my cycling teacher said to us right in the middle of our toughest workout (today's was by far the most brutal) "Challenge yourself, or you'll never get anywhere." 
Tomorrow is a new day. Let's keep thinking like that!

Ta ta for now babes
