Confession 46

Sometimes having your own room isn't so fun.
This semester I live by myself in my sorority house. I moved from my double room upstairs to a single room downstairs, and I don't love it. While its nice having my own room and bathroom, sometimes I get lonely. Plus I hear everyone upstairs when they walk (or jump) around.

Confession 45

Being sick sucks.
I spent all day yesterday wrapped up in a blanket on my parent's bed sick. I had some type of nasty stomach bug, that thankfully only lasted about 24 hours. I watched 5 hours of Say Yes to the Dress and drank one Gatorade all day. It was miserable, but on the plus side I lost 3 pounds.

Confession 44

People who write acceptance speeches for awards are tacky.
It's okay to have practiced your speech, even advised. Its even okay to have a list of people you would want to thank, but people who get up on stage with a full speech are just tacky. Those people are saying "I think so highly of myself that I took the time to sit and write a witty/well thought out acceptance speech. I am so superior to everyone else who was nominated." That's just tacky and classless and has no place at awards shows.

Confession 43

I love watching pageants.
I've never been in a pageant myself, but I just love watching them. I never miss a Miss America. Its so much fun to sit and discus each girl with friends as we watch. Common topics of discussion are who's had plastic surgery (boob jobs mostly), who picked a terrible talent (half the singer can't carry a tune), and who's evening gown is just plain awful. And of course I'm always excited when I pick the winner.

Confession 42

I love Lilly Pulitzer.
I have loved LP for as long as I can remember. I grew up by the beach, so LP was standard wear. When I see a LP pattern I think smart, sophisticated, simple. It reminds me of sunshine and happy times.
Little Miss Can't Be Wrong who writes one of the precious blogs I follow, how I met your father is hosting a LP giveaway. She is giving a way the Under the stars clutch which I have been lusting after. Go check out her blog and enter her giveaway. Oh and don't forget to mention that I referred you!

Confession 41

There are some foods I can only eat at school.
There are a few restaurants that I have at home and at school. What I order from these at home I won't order when I'm at school. Its like I associate certain foods with school and certain ones with home and the two can't mix. Its not that they make them any different, I just can't eat them out of their location.

Confession 40

I never forget to floss.
Yes, I am that annoying person who always remembers to floss after brushing. When I was little the dentist told me my teeth would fall out if I ever forgot. Now I realize he was only kidding, but I still never forget. I have to buy new floss about every 2 months.

Confession 39

I love snow almost as much as I hate Auburn.
I hate Auburn more than all the other schools I hate combined; therefore, I really love snow.

Confession 38

I think snow is one of the most beautiful things in the world.
I've only seen snow in person a few times in my life. Living in the South seeing snow is a special occurrence. I think of snow as one of God's miracles. Once I graduate college I want to live up north for a couple of years simply so I can see more snow.

Confession 37

I've been watching Sarah Palin's Alaska for the past 5 hours.
I wish this was a joke. I just absolutely love this show! It is so nice to see reality tv with real people. I love Sarah Palin as a person (I'm not so sure how I feel about her as a politician). She values her family. She can take a jab at herself. She's funny and real. Sarah Palin is my role model!

Confession 36

I still haven't written my Christmas thank you notes.
I am so embarrassed that I haven't finished these yet. I always write thank you notes within a week of receiving a gift. I plan to amend this little manners faux-pa ASAP.

Confession 35

I really miss my sisters.
I love my old friends from home, but nothing compares to my sisters at school. I miss being in the house and having them around 24/7. I miss being able to go down the hall to gossip.

Confession 34

2011 is going to be my year.
My resolution is to make this year all about me and what I want. I will not bend over backwards for people anymore, especially guys. I am not going to be scared or talked out of anything. When this year is over I'm going to be at my happiest and best.
