Dubstepping kitties and whatnot.

"You are my sunshine, my lovely sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey."

This quote is pinned up to my desk, courtesy of a friend who sent me a letter at school!! **shoutout to you K!** You know, I've been realizing quite a bit about myself lately and how I work. Something I realized this morning when I was talking to a friend at coffee was this:  I feel in short, intense spurts. I definitely get stressed...but it's only for 5 minutes at a time usually. I get sad, but it doesn't last longer than a few hours at most. Happiness, however...ohhh happiness :D I love being happy. I don't know anyone who doesn't like being happy, so it makes sense.

Why am I so happy? I guess it's because I have so much to be THANKFUL for!! And since Thanksgiving is actually coming up quite soon, I want to dedicate the next posts leading up to Turkey Day as a way of showing what I'm thankful for in my life. So here goes. Disclaimer: these are in no particular order, just kind of as they come to mind.

Day 1:

I'm thankful for my family. Specifically I'll talk about my brother today.

Reid is my twin and he is an amazing guy. He's so goony. Once he posted on my Facebook wall and said "Here's your motivation to get through the rest of the week." This is the video he posted:

HAHAHA WHAT??? SO goony. He goes on little rampages where he will just start giggling really crazily and that gets ME going...people must think we're so strange.

He's also just a really solid guy. This year he's getting completely rocked by God and it's so cool to see. God has big plans for his life, that's for sure. He's becoming a leader and God is really developing him into someone special. Sometimes he'll post Facebook statuses and they kiiind of make me really excited because I can just tell he loves the Lord and that he is excited about it!

So that is my little shpiel (spiel? schpiel?) about how I am thankful for my hermano, stay tuned for more!
