I'm ringing in the new year with a 12 year old.
I'm sick at home on the couch with my 12 year old sister. My brother is off with his girlfriend. My parents are off at an event. I had planned to be with my friends wearing this and these, instead I'm wearing these and an oversized frat shirt. This better not be a sign of how 2011 is going to be for me!

Confession 32
Somewhere I messed up in counting.
I know my last post was confession 30, but it was really confession 31.
I'm back on track now.

Confession 30
I'm going to live a very full life.
Today I went to visit my 95 year old great aunt. For being 95 she looks terrific! She has lived such a long full life. I fully intend to live a life just as full. I can't think of anything sadder than being old and knowing you had a boring empty life.

Confession 29
I'd rather wear pearls than diamonds.
Pearls are effortless and always classy. Sometimes diamonds just look like you're trying too hard. Diamonds are flashy "look at me" jewelry while pearls are simple and understated. Every girl over the age of 13 should own at least one pair of pearls.

Confession 28
I have been completely worthless this entire Christmas break.
I know I'm not alone in this. I'm fairly confident that a good 85% of college students have been the same way. I'm going to start being productive tomorrow, after I wake up and eat lunch.

Confession 26
I think red nail polish is tacky.
I will never, never, never wear red nail polish. The only exception to this rule is for tacky Christmas Sweater parties, redneck wedding swaps, or any other event that calls for one to look low class. I always wear pink or natural/french. The same goes for my toe nails.

Confession 25
I am completely 100% done with my Christmas shopping!
This is a big accomplishment considering I only really started about a week and a half ago. Since I finish school so early in December I wait until I'm back home and the semester is over before I really start to shop. I did cheat this year and ordered some things online when I should have been studying during finals week, but there is only so much time you can look at Spanish verbs before you want to cry. So anyway I'm completely done shopping and wrapping. Now I just get to wait for Christmas morning to arrive so I can open all my sure to be fabulous gifts, and I can see the happy looks on my family's faces when they open all their fabulous gifts from me!

Confession 24
I've left my phone off all day.
I was so tired of getting annoying texts from annoying people that I turned my phone off. I've enjoyed a simply lovely day of baking and watching movies with no annoying interruptions. The only thing that would have made today better would have been a good strong cocktail.

Confession 22
When I was little I wore Walmart clothes.
In-fact, my whole family shopped at Walmart. We had the money to shop at real stores, but my mom convinced us that spending more on clothes was pointless and silly. I thought something from JCPenny was fancy. Now I wouldn't be caught dead wearing real clothes from Walmart (things for swaps and other themed parties don't count).

Confession 21
Being nice is often harder than it seems.
Do you know anyone who is really annoying but doesn't realize it. I sure do. I have a friend who is annoying, but she has no idea. To make it worse she thinks she's helping. I can't be mean because she'd be very hurt. Ugh, sometimes its so annoying to be the nice person.

Confession 20
I hate diets.
Really I hate the big deal everyone makes when you go on a diet. I especially hate the big deal people make when you lose weight. I don't want people to comment on the fact that I weighed more before. I just want people to look at how hot I look now and be envious.

Confession 20
Leggings are pants.
You are required to wear them with a longish shirt (think tunic) and boots. You can not wear legging as pants with heels or flats, unless its with tennis shoes to the gym.

Confession 19
I've been home for a day and my room is a disaster.
I'm usually very particular about my room being clean, but when I've been coming home my room always seems to turn into a mess. My room at school is so neat and clean, my friends laugh and say I'm the only college student who dusts and swiffers every week. I can't really figure out why I allow my room to look this way at home; my best guess is that I feel like I'm on vacation.

Confession 18
For the first time in my life I'm considering hiding my report card.
Yes, I realize how 5th grade that sentence sounds. I have always made good grades in school without trying, but not this semester. For the first time in my life I've made more Cs than As. I'm absolutely terrified for my parents to find out. Its silly, but sometimes I still feel like that 10 year old little girl who wants her daddy's to be proud and brag about her good grades at work.

Confession 17
I've gotten completely overwhelmed by school this semester.
My grades are going to be far from great this semester. I've gotten in completely over my head with all my extra activities. This is finals week and I need some major prayers.
