Things to Smile About:

1. A brand-spankin' new apartment waiting for me in the promised land of Isla Vista. Hell. Yes.
2. Managers that love me--managers that will, hopefully, write me a damn good letter of rec. for rehire in Santa Barbara.
3. An INCREDIBLE family--seriously guys...I've got the best ones out there. My family has never EVER let me down. They continue to pull through for me even when the light at the end of the tunnel begins to dim. They've been the only positive constant in my life. Even in the darkest times of financial and emotional despair, they've come through to guide me back to sanity. Thank you, God.
4. God. God's worked wonders for me in my short nineteen years of life. The time has come to acknowledge this and show my appreciation.
5. A certain-special-someone.

My heart's on a roller coaster and I'm loving every drop, peak, sharp turn and every last minute of the thrill.
