I didn't eat dinner.


(taken in charleston while it was flooding)

First off, I didn't eat dinner for two reasons. one, i kept falling back asleep during dinner time and two, i didn't like the food that was cooked. (i'm way too picky sometimes)

Life for me, is falling apart. My foundation this week, is weak. I haven't talked to my best friend in a week and a half, and i have no idea why. That alone has been worrying me constantly. I recently sent out four halloween cards and only one person responded to them, which kind of hurts.
I have no shame in telling you my issues. everyone has them, so i dont mind.

Anyways, I know as always, through everything i've gone through, that the bad times will pass. They always do. That's why, although life is kind of sucky right now, itll get better.

Halloween is still coming up & so is my 18th birthday.

much love,

j.

a million reasons to be happy


whenever one of my friends talks negatively, i sometimes use the phrase "if someone can find happiness in a concentration camp, i never have an excuse to be sad"

Today was a good day.
Here's how it went....

-woke up at 7:30 which was okay because i went to bed fairly early.
-went to what i thought would be eight hours, but ended up only being five hours of driving school.
-went to lowe's to get pink paint samples (to decided on the new bathroom shade)
-went to target to get halloween stuff and new kitchen crap. (couldn't find any krabby patties though, so if you find any....you know what to do)
-attempted homework (somewhat failed)
-had a late night craving for wendy's, went through the drive thru and got 3 small frosties and 1 small fry for ONLY $2.50!!!
-had an amazing phone conversation with my bestie.


there are always, always a million reasons to be happy.

it's a choice.


& i'm choosing it now, and always.


much love,

twelve days until my favorite month

Why may you ask is october my favorite month?
TWO REASONS


number 1. It's national breast cancer awareness month, which means about everything ever is suddenly turned pink, if it isn't already.

number 2. Halloween is in october, which is my favorite holiday. I absolutely love everything about it.


There is always something to look forward to, especially october!

Also, my sister's birthday is october :)


Keep Calm and Carry On


much love,

jeanette, in simplified words


Whenever i come across some phrase someone has said to describe something, usually themselves (and usually in a book) it is an awesome moment when they feel exactly the same way i do.
I just finished reading the book "The Secret Life of Prince Charming" by Deb Caletti. The title is does not match the story, so don't let that turn you away. If you know me enough, you know i don't prefer to read. But this book was incredible.
Anyways, on one of the last pages of the book, the main character describes herself,
"I know about my own ordinariness, I think most people do, and i am okay with it. I am not the most, the best, the fastest, the greatest, but i am enough. Regular and enough, with my own simple but clear voice that i am learning to hear, and my own feelings i'm learning to accept. Beautiful enough for the good people who really care about me"

that is me in a couple of sentences.
i find this description humbly honest.

sometimes, usually and preferably, enough is enough.

I am enough,
&hopefully, eventually,
i will become more than that.

much love,

always growing, ever learning,

Kendra

In life, you need
consistency
to be loved
honesty
a view of the brighter side of everything
a best friend
an opposite
& a garbage disposal.

To me, Kendra is all of these.
although sometimes she may be
too consistent,
way too loving,
painfully honest,
too positive,
definitely a bestie,
way way too opposite,
and disposes too much of my food (aka steal it)


I love her, and i always will.
I know, through everything, no matter how ridiculous i am,
we'll be best friends.


can't you tell?


much love,

j.

oh and do you prefer pancake, waffle, taco or corndog?

if you don't get it, let it be :)
