it's the most wonderful time of the year!

i'm happpy. it's as simple as that. not gonna lie i was really strugglin there for a while but boy have things turned around! finals are done. i passed with flying colors all of them but one... and we'll just not talk about that. i have the greastest family and friends out there. i met a boy who has definitely changed my life for the better. example: had a crappy day yesterday wake up to him with doughnuts and juice in his hands and a letter just for me :) oh he's cute. my best friends are all home for christmas! yay!! had a sleepover with alex last night and dang do i love that girl! we were up until 2:30 just talking. ask us how we did we have no idea. but i guess it's cause we had lots to catch up on. christmas is in 4 days and i'm oh so excited! and then oh hey i'm going to BOSTON!!!! yup that's right. i'm so excited i'm going with Justin and we're meeting his brother's family. woop it'll be a party. a little over a week til we're boarding the plane for that adventure. life is good. and even through all the trials, i've realized that every trial that's given to you is definitely there for a reason. i have hated every single one of them but really they've made me that much stronger and things that come around after are that much better. keep your head up cause i know for a fact things will turn around :) being happy is a choice. so make it!

fall.

it's here. summer is officially over and i think i may cry... but hey things are starting to turn around! and i have finally realized that every little thing that happens to me happens for a reason. it's hard to believe it but slowly and surely everything starts to come together. :) life is good. i can't complain. i've got the greatest family and friends and even though my hearts been broken a couple times in the past couple weeks... (wait did i say a couple? and only in a few weeks? yeah i did. but hey i'm okay with it. because that only means there's someone that much better out there. oh man! i can not wait to meet him!!) i'm still happy. this last weekend was probably the craziest weekend i've had in thee longest time. lost a couple friends but gained a couple as well. alex came home and it was so crazy to me that even though she's been gone for 3 weeks, right when we hung out it was like she never left. sunday i had quite the deep conversation with one of my closest friends and it made me realize that even when times get tough you're true friends WILL always be there for you. life is good. oh and did i mention that i'm kinda likin this whole college situation? well, i am. i got free lunch yesterday and free hot chocolate today... hey some men aren't so bad eh? haha :)

hmmm..

it's been one of those weeks where i almost think it'd be best for me to go live in a cave... drama. i LOVE it. (said with PURE sarcasm) haha but ya know, i have a feeling this weekend will be one of the best. alex. comes home. THIS weekend. yes! :)

soap operas.

i swear if my life was made into a soap opera i'd make millions. haha drama seems to follow me 24/7. i was talking to my mom about everything and she turned to me and said "hailie, you're not in high school anymore! why are you still surrounded by all this drama?!" good question mom! if i knew the answer to that my life would be complete! haha but hey i'm lovin' life! alex comes home in 1 week from tomorrow!! i'm SO excited!! :) and college is treatin me well... midterms are coming up and that kinda freaks me... but hey life is good! i'm happy and that's all that matters <3

did i mention that i'm now a manger at pizza pie cafe? well... i am. and it's my first night managing... alone... yikes. wish me luck.
