Back Again

I'm so inconsistent with this blog. It's just a fact by now.

Here's my good thing for today:

I FINALLY FINISHED MY GRAD SCHOOL ESSAYS AND AM READY TO TURN IN MY APPLICATION TOMORROW!!!!

Three for the price of ONE!

So, there's a chance I may have to change the name of this blog to "A few every few days" at this rate! So here are my good things for Thursday through Saturday. I'll just do Today's tonight- I just wanted  to update when I finally remembered!

Thursday-
Went to sushi and had an amazing drink there called White Dragon (made with Bailey's and other yumminess). It had whipped cream on top and was like a grown up milkshake.
Friday-
I went with friends to SHabbat Services at Beit T'shuva (the Jewish Rehabilitation facility in Los Angeles). The services were really musical, which was a new experience and they had each person who had an anniversary of being sober say something, which was moving and definietely a lesson in being grateful for what I have.

Saturday- (and this is where I get lazy and copy my facebook status)
walked around the Beverley Center (can now say I set foot in Prada and Henri Bendel), waited in line at Sprinkles for probably at least 15 minutes (worth it, of course), and went to get a turkey burger from Round's in WeHo (owned by the guy who started the NoH8 campaign).
(It must be noted again how good this turkey burger was- it had Chipotle Aioli, feta cheese, avocado, and grilled onions) In addition to  sweet potato fries with tobasco ketchup. Best meal ALL weekend.

Umami

Today, I had the best hamburger in a long time. Seriously, THE BEST. It was from Umami Burger in Santa Monica and it was absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS!!!!

Two for the Price of One

"that sounds like a vitamin" - my friend on the title of my blog

So, I forgot yesterday! But that's okay because I can put both in today's entry! 

Yesterday- went to Sprinkles Cupcakes with a group of friends. :) 

Today- HAMENTASCHEN HOOPLAH!!!!!! It's happening next week.....

almost forgot!

I need to go to sleep. I cam't think this late!

umm.....i was somewhat productive today!! more than the past couple days

Antioch/Jewlicious

My good thing today: I know what I want to do with my life! I visited Antioch University today and they have a specialization in LGBT Psychology with a masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. So, that is what I'm going to do, first working and gaining experience in the field and then getting my doctorate and teaching at some point! This is because I have a soft spot for victims of bullying and bullying towards the LGBT community/gay teen suicides are so rampant right now that I want to take part in a movement that really should be happening to prevent bullying and suicide, as well as help gay teens who are going through bullying or any issues and help them feel accepted. 

2nd good thing, though it hasn't happened yet!

Tonight, I am going to Jewlicious, which is a big music festival with thousands of college students!!

Friday

I remembered to update before midnight! Okay so my positive thing for today is I went with a group of people to Shabbat at UCLA and it was fun :) Oh and right now, I'm listening to Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine which is one of my favorite songs.

Thursday

I need to start making my entries earlier because I forget like half my day when it's this late!It was a beautiful day so we had class outside in the sun.  Lunch was good today (and healthy)! and I got a good workout tonight! Also: Pinterest is addicting! OH, and I saw my old roommate who is an amazing/inspiring person :)

Wednesday, Feb. 22

This is for Wednesday because a little after midnight, I realized I forgot to update my blog before the day was technically over. 

Ummm.....I'm so tired, I can't think. Ummm, I ate pretty healthy today :) 

Day of Rest!

I had my own personal Shabbat and IMed with a couple friends--one of whom is moving back to la in June! A friend also brought me dinner, which was really nice :) I also joined Pinterest- and a friend helped me come up with creative pinboard names :)

Malibu

I went to Malibu twice today (once to take a tour of Pepperdine!). Seeing such a beautiful place with such beautiful scenery was a beautiful reminder to pause and realize what a lovely world we live in!

Back! Lack of Internet will not stop me again!

So I started this blog several months ago, then I stopped because I didnt have internet over Thanksgiving, so I missed a couple days and gave up. But, today I decided to start again because it was a really good idea a friend gave me and I thought it should keep going even if I missed a few days (which has now turned into months). The premise is simple: Write down at least one good thing that happened to me per day and there is no such thing as "nothing good happened". GO!

2/19/12

I talked to a rep from Career Israel and I will most likely be there from June to August, G-d willing!

Day 3

Go figure the day after I say I can use more than one good thing I'm having trouble thinking of stuff. I'm not saying this was a bad idea, but maybe not a great idea, because I feel like it is going to do more harm than good. Like seriously, at the end of the day I'm like "Okay so only 1 good thing happened today?". How is that going to help me? If I posted negative things this blog would be a lot longer.

11/22/2011

I had a good time driving to the psych field trip with my friend....even though that was a complete waste of time.

I helped someone with the program we have to use and he sent me a couple useful links for our paper.

Day 2

So I'm actually going to change the premise around since I'm quite indecisive. Instead of just one thing, I'm going to say at least one thing since I may not be able to decide. But one a day is a better name than "at least one a day".

11/21/2011

My professor showed my friend and I how to use a complicated program and said that I caught on fast and was impressed by what i had done so far.

My friend texted me that there were cheese blintzes at the dining hall for breakfast because I had mentioned once that I like them.

Soo here goes my first post!

My friend suggested this to me since I have been kind of an emotional wreck with the combo of midterms and impending doom of finals. Yay :) The premise of this blog is quite simple. Think of at least one good thing that has happened to me (something nice someone did/a compliment or something fun that I got to do) at the end of the day and post it here and the next time I feel down read everything that I have posted thus far.

So I guess I will start with today 11/20/2011:

My friend who graduated helped me figure out something for school.
