Today's the day

"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Jesus Christ." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

This verse has come up twice in the past week and I love it. I think it's amazing when God speaks to you and I know I have a lot to learn. It's easy to forget to be thankful, even when things in your life are going good and especially when they're bad. Things in my life are not bad at all though, quite great actually!

I just got off the phone with my best friend, Elizabeth. We were talking when she got another phone call,
"Oh no! Uh hah. Okay, I'll be right over."
She says to me,
"I have to go, my fish is dying and I really like this fish."
Who really can form an attachment to a fish? Yes, that would be Elizabeth. Haha.

There has been a lot of good news between Elizabeth, Anna (my other best friend), and I lately.

• Anna just moved out of her house for the first time... which is always exciting (though I don't really know because I have only moved away to a dorm room). She just got accepted to UCSD after going to a community college for the past 3 years.
  
• Elizabeth just got offered a job at a place where she was applying.
  She is also graduating next semester and found a place to live until then.
  
• I just changed my major for the last time (hopefully) and will have only 42 units left! It's the last week of school before finals and I am ready for a little break before I start 2 classes in summer school. And... the most exciting thing... I'm loved :) and in love too...
• Oh... and another exciting/scary/weird thing is that someone is going to put an offer in on our house that is for sale... we'll see what happens... eeek.
  

There are so many changes... but... this is life and I will be joyous for today because that's the way it should be!!!
