with great escapes in the near future, actually escaping seems much less crucial.

So I think, sort of accidentally, I promised Chase that I would write a blog post every day until he leaves for his mission to Russia. And since I'm pretty sure he's the only one that actually reads the blog, I should probably honor that promise... haha. The problem is that, as I'm sure any of you that read this (...yeah) have noticed that I haven't actually been able to think of anything awesome to write as posts lately. At least, nothing interesting. So I'll just fill you in on my life lately because apparently (says Chase) that is adequate content for a blog post.

Epiphany for the day: Once you just make a decision, rather than weighing out the pros and cons and asking a thousand people for their opinion and thinking it to death, the situation becomes much simpler and even enjoyable. It's kind of magic-- my mom has been trying to convince me of this point for the longest time now, but when I actually put it into practice, rather than thinking about it in theory, she's totally right. Take this for example: Timmy drove down from Kelso (Washington) and stayed the night on Friday night, and it made me about a thousand times more excited for camp this summer. Weird how that works, because a few weeks ago I was so set on NOT going back to camp. And now that I decided to go, I can't wait--even though it's six months away. Interviews are on Saturday, and I'm marginally nervous, but I'm not entirely sure why because I basically already have the job.

Oh, and notice the new song on the right side of the page under "misuque." It is Jon Foreman's "A Cure for the Pain." I'm loving Jon Foreman lately. Sooo much better than Switchfoot, I'm sorry. Listen to it and tell me what you think!

True story: today, a friend told me that the number one reason he likes me is because I have never (and will never, ever) ask him, "Does this make me look fat?" ... I like myself a lot more today than I did yesterday.

I hate it when it's late at night, such as right now, and I'm in a very artistic and creative mood, but I have nothing in my brain to create, so I surf stumbleupon.com in hopes of finding some inspiration, and all I find is this:

Which is still good. I mean, it's a good thing to remember, and... Oh, but hold on, I'm getting some inspiration as I type. Hmmmmmmm. I'll see what happens, and update the situation tomorrow. But I should probably go to bed eventually. Ekeh byeeee
