Remember when I was so strange and likeable?

I'm sitting at my computer wrapped up in a blanket freezing, listening to Tegan & Sara. This is the first time I have sat down and rested in (somewhat)silence in a while. My head feels completely clear. I realized that all of a sudden I am very content with life. Even in this chaotic mess I'm in, I feel strong and secure. It's rather odd... Being in the circumstances I am in you wouldn't think such a positive mood could come from me. But it has, and I am more than glad. (I'm happy because I'm in a good mood? Double Happiness Points??)

The other day I legitimately had to stand in front of a mirror and tell myself that I was a strong individual person and that no one, and nothing could destroy me. It's weird but it may have worked. Maybe it's just a phase... Maybe I'm ignoring the bigger picture of everything that has happened. But I have decided that there isn't a point in crying about it. (That or I have cried so much that my eyes have dried out.) It's all in God's hands and there is nothing I can do about it but continue on. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?

Although I'm in a wonderful state of mind at the moment, prayer is always much needed.

On a completely different note:
After I had gone to Brazil last summer my parents had misplaced my birth certificate.
Conveniently around the time I was suppose to go get my learners permit. Well recently it has been found and now I can go to the DMV to get my learners, which I'm doing tomorrow morning. (Technically today because it's around 12AM right now) And then off to pick up movies for my "scary movie night" with Sophia. I think we have decided we are at least renting The Crazies & Paranormal Activity. I've heard Paranormal Activity isn't all that scary, but we haven't seen it yet and have wanted to for awhile now.

Well, I think I'm going to wrap this up.
Oh, but for any T&S fans, I found this on their website and it made me incredibly happy:

"Sara and I were asked to perform Alligator on Mamma Yamma, a childrens show on CBC Kids here in Canada back in January. They asked us to change the lyrics so they were more “kid friendly”. See the result below."



And that's all I have to share for the night//morning.
Grace & Peace,
Chelsea Layne D.
