10 Things Gas Stations Won't Tell You

Check this out.

It's at least an interesting read.

Well, that's that

Highlander and I had a talk today. After two weeks of awkwardness we have decided to move on. Well, I was still for working things out, but he's done some soul searching and some praying and he feels that it is wrong to continue because its not right and it would be dishonest to lead me on. Which I kind of knew would happen. He was not invested in the relationship like I was and the Lord has been preparing me for the breakup. He (the Lord) told me to just 'let him go'. So I did. You can't make someone choose something they don't want.

The good news though is that I am moving back to Utah! Highlander was really the only reason I was staying in CA; I couldn't get a job and the cost of living was making things really difficult for me. So now that that is gone, I can move back with a light heart and hopefully find some joy again. I don't really enjoy living in California. Now its just figuring out the logistics of moving back.

Yes, I am insane. I would like it to calm down a bit, but it never seems to.

Onward and upward!!

I hope that something better comes along

Musical

So I was taking those dumb quizzes on Facebook and I read this one out loud.

If you ruled the world, what would it look like?

My roommates promptly replied "a musical" and "everyone would be singing"

To which I laughed because apparently they know me well enough to figure that one out.

Love horoscope

Today's horoscope:

Love comes in many different flavors -- sometimes it's hot and spicy, while other times it's more simple and comforting. All you have to do is understand which kind you are dealing with right now. So take things slowly in any new relationships, regardless of whether or not they are romantic. Let this person show you who they are in their own way, and don't overlook red flags that pop up. Just because they are inconvenient doesn't mean that they still aren't true.

Guess I should take a chill pill.

Quality of work

For my program, we write a lot. I turned in my last assignment this weekend. The professor whose class this is from I am currently taking my third class from. This is her response to my assignment:

Treatqueen,
Excellent work. Treatqueen, your writing style has a clarity and at the same time a scholarly quality. I hope you are planning to continue to your PhD.
Best,
Professor

I have to tell you, that completely floored me. And was a genuine bright spot to my life at this time.

The Challenge of Life

It was intended that life be a challenge, not so that you would fail, but that you might succeed through overcoming.
