I'm waiting for some many things at the moment. I'm waiting for school to stop being so stressful, I'm waiting to sometime get promoted. I'm waiting for inspiration to hit. I'm waiting for Valentine's day! (this is the explanation I give for so much pink and red. It's my ritual) I'm waiting for a boy to be exactly what I need. I'm waiting for Joseph Gordon Levitt to decide he wants to marry a peasant. And I'm waiting for all the crazy feelings I have to just dissipate and make me feel more normal and cheerful. But the thing is, I can't just wait for those things, you know? I need to force them to happen. I can't wait for things to just  magically be better. I'm the master of my own life, the captain of my ship, the pilot of this freaking plane crash.

I'm glad I've been feeling more artsy lately. It's my soul, and I need to stop putting it aside for other, just as important things.

Be brave, draw a picture and show it to people,

I woke up this morning with a terrible throatache, and a slight stomachache. But somehow, I managed to drag my bum out of bed, and put clothes on. It was something of a miracle. I definitely enjoyed the church meeting though. A girl that I lived with for a brief transition period this semester sang a musical number, and it was absolutely stunning. Her vibrato was top-notch. Anyway, the snow was so lovely the last few days, and with this beautifully frolick-worthy dress, I couldn't help myself... I skipped the entire way home from church. 'Twas delightful :)

Ooh, and tonight I'm probably going to start reading Life of Pi. I figure I should start it before the movie comes out, and my darling friend recommends it. So here's to a new book!

And tonight's Christmas movie over at apartment two is Elf! Will Ferrell at his finest....

Love, Sarai

I wish I was a supremely social creature. But unfortunately, I'm not. I think I used to be, but then I started dating Dane, and I just stopped being a little flirt. I don't even love being social honestly, but I figure it's the right thing to do, despite my misgivings...

Some things I'm loving lately:

My high heels

Letters from Dane

waking up to texts that say "sweet girl"

hugs

tea parties

Love, Sarai
