This is a picture of me and my friend, Jonathan. Last night I went to see him and his band play. They are AWESOME!!! I was very excited to see him and catch up a little bit. I also saw a lot of people I knew in high school, which was fun to see how we've all changed.

Of course, the night couldn't ever be perfect. And I really don't feel like reliving it and talking about it, so I'm just going to say that I feel like crap about myself and plan to start looking for my own house soon.

Which leads me to the picture of today. It's of my bathroom because when I get mad or upset or need to really think, I clean, so that's what I did. Being in this mood makes it hard to think of things that I love about myself, but here goes:

What I love about me #5:
I love my job. I always said that I wanted a job that would leave me feeling satisfied and like I've made a difference in the world. Being a teacher definitely gives me that opportunity every single day. I always knew that I would have to have a job that I look forward to going to every day. Being a teacher makes me feel that way. I look forward to going to work. It doesn't even feel like work to me. It's something I love to do that I just so happen to get paid for.

What I love about me #6:
I can talk to anybody and carry on a conversation. I've always been able to do it. I usually get nominated to go talk to people when my friends want to ask them a question or something like that. Last night was so interesting to see old friends and acquaintances and even people I had never met before. It was great to talk with them and catch up and not have that weird awkward feeling when you run out of things to say and are just standing there ho humming around. Anyways, I love that I can talk to anybody because it lets me get to know so many people and meet so many new people that I otherwise may have never known.
