Apparently I'm Vitamin C deprived

My whole body hurts. You know that point right before you get really sick where your body feels weak and its overall really sore? Well, I have that now. My throat has been dry for the past two days and I can't breathe through my nose. I'm pretty sure my voice will be gone by tomorrow, which will not be good because I have to work again. But I shan't call in! I'll suck it up naturally. (: I don't like getting sick though, its never any fun.
Last night I had a wonderful time hanging out with Erin and Justin, both are amazing people. We went to see Gran Tarino (omgsp?) and it was REALLY good. Super funny, and very brutally honest and true. I loved it. After that, we went to steak n shake and spent a good 2 hours talking about life.
Justin made a good point, and I can't quote him on this because I don't remember everything he said, but it mostly consisted of him saying perhaps we shouldn't focus on all the negative things, but just be happy with the little things. Appreciate everything we've given, things we do, people we know and love, and just enjoy the time we have. Never get your hopes up, just accept everything for what it is. So I figured, wow! genius! why didn't I think of that? Its time for me to stop worrying so much and thinking how awful my life is, and just enjoy it. Afterall, God gave me this life, shouldn't I be happy with it? I'm going to start enjoying the little things in life. Appreciate the people who come in and out of it, and know that everything is just a learning experience. We're here to learn, to tell others about God, and just simply be!
Earlier that day, Erin and I walked the track and had a lovely girl talk. I've realized I must stop being a silly, hopeless girl and actually live my life. If people don't want to be around me, so be it! There loss anyways! I need to just be me, live my life, and eventually he will come. (by 'he' I mean that special boy saved just for me!) Until then, so what if I get lonely? I need to learn to rely solely on myself. Be utterly and completely independent. So far, I feel I'm mostly there. I do for myself, and I won't rely on anyone for anything. So now I have to learn to self-soothe and realize that I have to work on the relationship with myself before I ever consider a relationship with another person.
So, to sum all of this up, I've realized I'm going to start just living in the moment, love and cherish everyone who I come into contact with, and simply be.
Anyways, enough of my ranting. My back is killing me and my nose is stuffy. I have lots of classwork and work again tomorrow with Bill. yay! Anyways, I'm off to recharge before my super busy day.
love, me.
