10 things I learned this weekend...

12.14.2009









1. I do miss Eugene, and everything that comes with it, more than I thought I did.
2. Creating gifts for friends is much more satisfying. 
3. I adore a freshly cleaned house.
4. The Office is officially my favorite TV show.
5. I discovered another heater in the hallway of my apartment. 
6. Sometimes you just have to step up and be the bigger man.
7. I miss living with my parents. (to an extent)
8. My boyfriend is the most giving person I know. Truly.
9. I cannot work the sewing machine to save my life. 
10. Staring at Christmas lights, inside or out, can change your mood for the better, in seconds.

  3. i agree with you on the office and Christmas lights! i learned:

    *that my friends' annual Christmas party is one of my favorite things, ever.
    *how incredibly happy i am that my best friend is getting married to the man of her dreams, and that i will most definitely cry when giving my toast.
    *that my past doesn't have to haunt me.
    *that my boyfriend is the sweetest thing, ever.

    I love a clean house too. creating a gift is much more satisfying and fulfilling than buying one.

“But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.” — American Beauty
