Today I learned how to be content with the things I have. Like every typical teenage girl, I usually get tired of the clothes in my closet every time the season changes. I've been feeling a little guilty about this for the past couple of weeks, wanting to go buy new clothes constantly. So after putting away some laundry I had noticed a couple pieces that I don't typically wear any more and wondered how they'd look together. This turned into a two hour remix of things that I haven't worn in months and things that I usually wear that don't seem like a likely pair. I noticed that I actually had stuff that I liked. I started to notice this with the things around me that I've decided to keep this weekend. I've been applying this to more than just material things and I no longer feel so guilty.
I also gained a bit of patience today through prayer. I was astonished at the instant gratification I received. These past few days have been so incredible. I don't remember ever being this happy in the past few years.
Aside from that, it was a pretty average day, though, not boring. I spent another hour bringing out things from my room to the storage bins and went to Walmart for groceries where I ran into Josh pushing carts. It's always nice to say hi to Josh.
I really didn't get much school work done. I spent a lot of time here trying to take pictures of the Sun for a LTLYM assignment, but it seemed to had been hiding. I did read a chapter for APUSH, but I have two papers to complete for that class tonight. I guess I'll study for my Anatomy test during Art, even though I was so looking forward to creating an Andy Warhol-inspired painting using Dita Von Teese as my model. I love Dita. I'll probably only end up writing one or a little of both and finishing them tomorrow morning... Or I could just do both tomorrow. I'm such a procrastinator. I don't really like it all that much any more.
Time to prepare for bed if I plan on waking up early.
Night.
