"the promise"

okay, so here i was. laying in my bed thinking of all the miserable things that happen to me. all the things that i wish that i could change in my life. etc. but then i though HEY! i'm such a loser! i'm the one that is being stupid. i'm the one making myself feel like this every.single.day. then i had another epiphany. if i was doing this to myself, i could do the opposite and make myself feel happy! so guess what i did?

i made a promise.

here it is: i will not have a bad day until finals week (i gave myself until then because everyone knows you're allowed to eat as much as you want and be as cranky as you want during finals week) but here's one of the rules.  i am allowed to have a bad day on sunday because i ALWAYS am cranky on sunday. it doesnt matter where i'm at, who i'm with, or what i am doing. sundays just SUCK. no offense or anything. but they do. i dont know what it is but every sunday i want to go on a crazy rampage of killing. and punch everything in the world.

but i am done talking about that.
so that's that. there's my promise. and guess what? it's working! i went to work, and i was chipper. and my manager was like "why the heck are you smiling?! you never smile!" and then i said (with my head held high..and a smile on my face) "because i am having a GREAT day! :)" then my other manager turns around and she goes. "what the, why?" and i said "because i am always cranky and i am SICK of it!"

then they laughed awkwardly and walked away. but i was proud of myself. oh so proud.

and then guess what? i made TWO friends at work that day :) TWO!!!
i am already facebook friends with one of them. go me!

and also, now i ALWAYS have good days at work! always! because i sit by my friends and we laugh. we laugh so hard my brains fall out. and then i laugh some more. then someone calls and i am on the phone call, and i just start laughing for no good reason! i kinda get in trouble sometimes because i laugh so much, but i dont think anythings wrong with it. everyone could use more laughter in their life!

that is why i am going to show you THIS: www.hyperboleandahalf.com
okay, if you dont laugh out loud at least 5 times while you read this. then you dont have a soul. because i am 1. addicted and 2. in love with it because it makes me laugh so freaking hard.

anyways, i hope you all enjoy that gift i gave you.

also, mal's words of wisdom for the day:
dont procrastinate. the end.

p.s. the drawings in that blog are what kill me. their hands. oh.my.gosh. i just cant even handle how hilarious it is. i just want to laugh all the time. and so i do :)

Well that person is a chicken! I know you can do it! I think it's a great thing! I've been in a funk lately too and I think it takes doing things like this to pull yourself out of it! Take it a day at a time, and if you slip into old habits just know that tomorrow is always a fresh start!
