So I got to speak at FISH (our contemporary chapel service) last night. It was so awesome! Beforehand people asked me what I was talking about and I said "death" and they were like "oh!" lol. I guess they weren't expecting me to talk about something depressing. Oh well. I would like to think that they liked it. I even made a couple people cry I think. It was just a great experience to be able to witness to others and tell my story. The Holy Spirit obviously did a great job. Without Him I don't think I would have made the same kind of impact at all.

My awesome friend Kim gave me a soft purple hat that she knit for me. I'm wearing it right now in class. I'm wearing it all day. lol

I am starting to think about the things that make me happy. Some are simple things like the color purple, soft fuzzy things like my hat or sweater, chocolate, and apple juice. But I notice that I am most happy during chapel, especially FISH. I find it so moving. I am also really happy when I'm hanging out with my friends such as when a bunch of us go over to David, Zach, and Dan's room to watch TV shows, watch movies, play games (video games including mario kart and super smash brothers, and other types of games as well), and bible studies. So many of my friends just make me laugh and forget about my problems. I also realized how much animals make me happy, especially my cats back home. After all, according to some person that I cited in a speech I gave yesterday, petting animals released endorphins or "feel good" hormones. My family also makes me so happy as I was realizing over Thanksgiving break. Also, exercise helps me feel better too. I hadn't been exercising at all until a couple nights ago where I just went and worked out for like an hour and a half. I really need to make time to do that more often.

Anyways, I suppose I should wrap this up and focus complete attention to my professor.
