Resuming my general thought process from my blog not a few minutes ago, i've come to a conclusion, though perhaps it just applies to me so feel free to ignore it. I just like to pretend that i've figured something out that perhaps others have too. But the point is this: In rough times you don't just somehow feel okay and upbeat despite everything. You have to chose to stay strong and tell yourself to stay positive. You have to pull yourself out of bed and do everything you usually do in the morning getting ready despite the temptation sleep a little longer and then throw the first outfit you see on, put your hair up, and call it done. Happiness and perserverance and a positive attitude don't always just come naturally, sometimes they are continuous, active choices you make. Chose to remember that someday this too shall come to pass instead of thinking about how bad things are right now. Chose to try to be happy and cheer yourself up - or, alternatively, seek out friends that will cheer you up. Chose to keep a positive attitude instead of just looking at all the bad. Maybe i'm just a pessimist, but this is how it seems to be for me. Anyways, i'm going to go procrastinate more on studying for tomorrow's exam in favor of letting the excedrin take effect for my migraine and playing around with making wallpapers while i wait on my laundry.
Keep running!
