Update on Life

Well, I've finally managed to click my way to the top of my 27-friend Pyramid on the Brain Game. I'm prepared to lose my crown though...but I will persist.

This summer shall be spent doing research and *hopefully* volunteering somewhere...I have yet to make the call.

Life is going pretty good I think. There are certain things I still need to deal with. I'm seeing a counselor for the first time in my life, though I've been recommended twice before. Being a Psychology student now though, I don't see it as something to be ashamed of in the least. I actually find it kind of nice...partially because my SHIP insurance covers one semester completely.

While I don't really feel like I need to see her, it's kind of nice to know that there's that extra support. Friends, family, and significant others are of course, there for me too, but it's not really the same. What I tell them, and if I cry or whatever...it affects them in ways I don't want them to be affected.

Another development of mine as of late is that my toenail has fallen off. It doesn't hurt though...I wonder how it will look in flip-flops. So far, I've kept it hanging on there with my nifty bandages.

I also realized that I haven't been to a mall in ages. Gonna be about 2 months soon, it's crazy. Hopefully I've been spending a lot less money then; I'm kinda afraid it's all been spent on my current Froyo addiction. I probably have it five times a week. Gonna try Red Mango next week...AND go shopping! Hurray.

My mood goes up and down, but I'm going to try to be happyhappyhappy like the Chinese man tells us to be. After all, do I really have a good reason not to be? Haven't seen that guy lately though. I wonder what happened to Triangle man also? Berkeley's awesome characters are gone :(

Happy thoughts of the day: I'm so thankful for my health, for my loving family, for the wonderful people around me, for the opportunities I've gotten, for my research positions, for having enough money, and for my brain which is functional enough for me to achieve my goals (thus far).

So right now I have a love affair with Stars. Gonna post up their lyrics :)
