Dark Blue

Sometimes I just have those days that I feel down. I used to be an emotional person and would cry over anything; now, I can't even make myself cry when I want to. It amazes me how life works. We all have our trials and experiences, but they are very individual and personal. I struggle to let people in to understand how I feel. Some things I am very open about, and others, I don't tell anyone. I think we all are this way to an extent, but lately, I just feel a little off. The weather definitely isn't helping much. I am ready for spring.

I keep hearing Jack's Mannequin and even though Dark Blue is semi-depressing, it puts a smile on my face.

So when I do feel down, I find that it helps to list out things that make me happy. A year ago, I made a list of 100 things so I decided today that I would make a list of 50. It was fun comparing my two lists, I only had four or five that were the same. These are things that have made me happy this semester.
