Good Morning Sunshine

I got in relatively late last night from my Harvard endeavours. I ended up just watching a movie with the guys and leaving at around midnight from the square. What a creepy time of night, let me tell you! So many sketch balls were wandering around either drunk or high. I wondered where their sense of decency was as I looked at most of them with disgust.
I really hate it when those kind of people decide they have the right to hit on you. They come up with a certain drunk swagger, coy smile, and say something crude like, "wow, sexxxy!" or something equally as pathetic. Can one truly believe that that kind of behavior will get them a girl? Guys say they hate wasting their time on things like: girls who tease, girls who are just wanting them for money, etc. If this were true, then how the hell do they expect to get anyone OTHER than those types of girls with lines like that? It is a perplexing thing to me really. Also, when someone does that to me, I feel like saying, "Do you have ANY idea who I am? I am a respectful, kind person, a Harvard undergraduate who is NOT interested in your so called 'game' that you are spitting. Perhaps it can work on some two cent hoe, but I am nothing of the sort." It really gets to me when guys do that... if you couldn't tell.
My amazing friend Trish called me last night for solace and advice on guy troubles (what girl doesn't have those?). It was nice talking to her because she is another person whom I really admire for their healthy outlook on life. In comparison with Abby, Trish has a more happy and kind of "awe" outlook on things. I noticed this about her when we were on tour together with the Radcliffe Choral Society. She always seemed to be awed by things around her, totally taking them in with all 5 senses. It wasn't enough for her to just see something- she had to taste, hear, smell, and feel it too. She took every moment, and savored its "flavor" which made me realize just how FAST I went through life. She is such a great person and I really think that she will get through her tough time with the best of spirits.
I have work at the gym today from 1-5 and then I am just going to relax and take it easy. I hope to get more orgo done at work, but the gossip magazines always seem to call me from the shelves.
My goal for the rest of the summer, is to set goals for the day and the week in an attempt to guide myself more towards being a happy, healthy person. So, today, my goal is to remember that "today is a good day- I woke up today" and that beauty really does start and come from within. This week, I want to work on spending time with the people I care about the most. Since it is July 4th week, that might not be as difficult as I think. As hard as it has been for me to believe and do all of these things... I know that I am really starting to. I feel more beautiful, more happy and a bit more satisfied with life. My mind is getting more clear, and now I just have to work on making me feel better about my body and my curves... loving myself more. Whether it be naked, sans makeup, or clothed- I am beautiful.

Until Later ;)
