E: Day 21

Material things do nothing for me but my parents were excited to give me these presents. The purse is probably getting returned but I do like the watch.

E: Day 20

Birthdays remind me to appreciate the things that everyone has done for me :)

E: Day 19

2.14.15 Glen Hansard at Pabst Theater.  Music = true love :)

E: Day 18

Books. Enough said.

E: Day 17

Disabled chat in my gmail today.  I haven't been using it for a while and I'm always invisible anyway so I decided to give this a try.  I'm not sure how it'll work or if it's better to just sign out of it instead but I'll see how it goes. I would like to focus on more intentional communication where I give the other person my whole attention, instead of a constant background thing.

A: Day 22

This speaks for itself :)

A: Day 21

I love math and logic puzzles. I heard this one at Yuvati Kendra last night and specifically requested the answer not be shared until next week so I could have time to work on it! Any ideas? :)

E: Day 16

I tried donating blood today and got rejected for low iron.  Even though I failed, it feels good to try and help people...to think that something so simple that we take for granted can make it to people who desperately need it.  I'll try again soon.

A: Day 20

We used the materials I got through the DonorsChoose website for the first time today, and the kids were sooo happy and excited, which made me happy! :D And surprisingly they were very careful with the materials, which is hard for 6-year-olds, I was impressed.

A: Day 19

I spent all morning Monday prepping food for the week and I've been eating good food all week. This sandwich has a white bean basil spread I made.

E: Day 15

I'm really good at adapting to change when the need arises but not until I've resisted it as much as I can. One of the things I want to improve about myself is to welcome change rather than just learn to accept it, whether it's something I've chosen or out of my control.  And as with everything, it all starts with your thoughts. I like to leave myself reminders of the qualities I want to posses.

A: Day 18

I haven't seen my mom in 2 weeks and I missed her <3 Doing some couch snuggling (aka me leaning on her) while we watch Bollywood YouTube videos.
