TruLights

I really shouldn't be posting this right now. It's after 1 A.M. and I've yet to get in bed before 2 in the past couple weeks. It's so worth it though...life has been fun. However, I have discovered a few things about myself, one being that I hate stress. I'm much more of a walk slowly, procrastinate often, laugh lots type of gal. I've also discovered that unlike my sister, when stressed, I eat more instead of less and the small ray of sunshine caused by weighing a few less pounds is not my source of light. I've been learning a lot about other things too. Everyday is a new adventure with the Alphas. It's so crazy to me that people can get so close in such a short amount of time. Makes me wonder how much time I've wasted in the past, when I could have spent it caring enough to truly know someone. I was explaining how amazing the level of trust and acceptance with my girls is to my mom and she said something that has followed me ever since. She just nodded and said, "how the church should be". I never though I'd turn to a sorority to show me how to love my family in Christ, but it has been an unexpected thrill. There are a few more fun facts that I've caught onto. The squirrels really are crazy, but the students are even crazier about them. Leggings are "a staple" (thank you emma) at Truman. The school aspect of school isn't all that fun. With only 24 hours in a day, there is always extra time to be found. Dancing in the back row is the way to go. And lastly, don't find peace in your happiness, find happiness in your peace. I like to call these little tidbits "TruLights" because nothing beats walking along the brick paths at night with only the lights lining the grass to guide me from building to building. And of course the "Tru" comes from TRUman.
Sweet dreams my friends,
Kat
