Hey It's Okay





Its Ok Thursdays



So I am at work today and I figured with it being just 2 days until Christmas and 3 days until Christmas day I needed to link up with "It's Okay" So here goes!

It's okay...

To be thrilled that I get 5 days off in a row after I leave work tomorrow. 

To be looking forward to cooking dinner after work today. 

To be considering actually going to Midnight Mass this year, I always say I'll go and then when it's time I don't,

To not be holding my breath on that last one although I do want to go.

To be actually really upset that it is a balmy 78 degrees outside. I WANT SNOW!

To have finished shopping for all but two of the people I get presents for, but those two I won't see until after Christmas so they can wait. 

To be really sick of being broke. 

To not be thrilled with my new hair and have decided to re dye it tomorrow after work. 

To desperately want to give some of the guests at the hotel deodorant and soap, and hold my breath while speaking to them.

To be more excited than I should be for "that time of the month" so I can use my new period tracker app.

This was our damage after the night.



and of course tipsy pictures! The order is Me, M and Eri.

SO gosh where have I been lately? Honestly I’m not sure, I’ve been kind of hiding in a fog.

But now on to today’s post!!

Its Ok Thursdays

 

 

 

…to be thrilled that I may have found a way to see Kensei at least once a month for under $200…. actually for under $20…. but I am seriously skeptical about it. Has anyone used Megabus.com? Is it a decent travel service?

…To desperately want this semester to be over.

… To be a little worried I haven't heard back from the universities I applied to, and therefore might be taking next semester off.

… To be dreading my Spanish class… we have a test EVERY single class from this week until the end of  semester, that’s 4 weeks of straight tests, 2 tests a week!!

… To not be able to wait until thanksgiving, even though it means I’ll be eating turkey until Christmas because I am not good with only cooking for a small number of  people

… To want today over with… to many tests, I have a 200 question test in history, a Spanish test, and a philosophy test on material we haven't finished yet... then I go to work!

…To be seriously addicted to pintrest.
