the meaning behind the name.
This is it. Hallelujah this is life, this is the day that the Lord has made! Today, and everyday I will be joyful because I am blessed with the air that God gave me. There is sunshine in the sky today, and it is beautiful; yesterday there were thunderstorms and lightening and it was beautiful; some days there are just cloudy skies and they are beautiful. Whatever I do I have to remember to be joyful through it because I am alive, breathing, and free.
This is it, this is life. This is the only one you have. There are no do-overs just like it should be. Don't regret the past. Love the present. Don't waste today saying tomorrow. Today may not be ideal for you, but it doesn't matter, get past it and make it great. You are so blessed, embrace it!
College
My college life goes like this...
I drink water, milk, tea, juice, pretty much everything besides coffee out of coffee mugs I get for free. Ten O'clock at night is when everyone gets together to hang out. Dinner gets skipped because I'm busy doing homework for my night class. Going to bed at eleven is early, and so is getting up at eight. When I walk to class at least two people I know pass me on the way and we greet each other. It seems to me that everyone is a musical genius, except for me of course. I get homesick, but the second I get "home" I want to be back at school, where my home truly is. Sleepovers on the floor, in the hall, three to a bed, in a chair, are normal. On Saturdays no one is in the bathroom until at least noon. If you text me at two in the morning I will probably answer. Breakfast usually isn't an option. My bed has a permanent fort built on top of it. Bed is the place I would be all the time if I could. If I have a class where I don't have any work to do, and I don't learn anything, I'm upset. There is no place in my life that I would rather be than college. It is marvelous and freeing. I love the adventure, and I wouldn't change it.

Euchre
So.
My entire high school career and college career until now, I have been resisting the pull of all my fellow Michiganders telling me to learn how to play euchre. Every time I said no to someone trying to teach me, because I knew how addicted to it people can become. So Sunday night when I said yes to learning, I don't know what I was thinking. I learned and I love it. LOVE it. Oh no.
It doesn't help that I've won three out of the four games I've ever played. Usually I never win games. I had the same partner every time, Alex. Our strategy was to come up with a sneaky team name. The team name is "the nothing winners". How is it sneaky you ask? Because when we're losing we use our full team name; when we are winning we use our nickname "the winners". Sneaky sneaky isn't it?
Well that is all for now.
