Halloween is on Sunday so that means starting tomorrow there are halloween parties! The first one I'm going to will be at 9:00 pm at my friends dorm. I'm going as a cat and I'm using my costume from when I did the show cats.
On Saturday there is a Halloween dance. Before the dance though there is cupcake decorating. Both are costume attire so that should be fun.
Today I got 3 bags of candy in the mail. I'm surprised I still have some left! It was 3 of my favorites too. Reeses m&ms and mounds. Yeah definitely shocked I have most of it left. It's a mystery alright.
Today I've been getting tension headaches and it really sucks! I missed a class because of it too! Hope I'm ok tomorrow. If I'm not I'm gonna have to suck it up. I have 2 essays I have to write tomorrow too! I think both of them are 4 pages. We'll see how that goes. Ok so getting tired now so I'm gonna attempt sleep especially since it's actually quiet on a thirsty Thursday!

Random acts of kindness
If there is one thing I appreciate it is a Random Act of Kindness or a RAK. I love doing them and I love receiving them. This month I did a crochet one of a little whale to hold earbuds(I will post a pic later) and today I received a knit pattern one. It's just so nice to receive things like this! I've had good karma and I blame it on that.
Idk why I just love doing things for other ppl though. It pays off sometimes too like tonight when I got that email with the pattern. It feels so good to help others or do something nice for them. It's nice to be appreciated too. It's like on Christmas when you give someone that gift they wanted soo badly and you watch their face as they open it! You just feel good. Who doesn't like feeling good?
I try my best to always be kind to everyone but I'm far from perfect. I can be as bitchy as the next person but things like doing raks makes me feel like I'm earning a little bit of that lost respect back. I think everyone should do things like these just because they do make you feel good. No one is perfect and sometimes it means more to get respect from a perfect stranger than a long time friend. That's why I like to do charity things as well. I have been lucky enough to have the things in life that I need but not everyone has. Just giving someone a two second smile on their face feels great. It often pays off too in more ways than just that smile or a thank you. It doesn't always but when it does it's totally worth it.
I know that we'll never get our wish for world peace but doing a good deed gets us a little closer. As an 18 year old college student I often feel like there's not a whole lot I can do but in reality there is. Just telling someone something nice can make their day and I love making pals days. So will I be able to change the world? Probably not but I can change someones day from bad to good and knowing I can do that changes my own personal world and that's pretty cool.
Lots of love

Insomnia is the new sleep!
So did you know that insomnia is ruling my life? No? Well it is. So this weekend I like haven't slept at night and it's awful! But I've realized something. A lot more ppl deal with it than I originally thought. I go down to the lounge a lot when I can't sleep and there is always someone down there looking every bit as tired as I am. It's amazing! I never realized how many ppl are in my shoes!
In other news college beds make farting noises... Well at least my roommates does. I know it's not her either cause no one farts that loud. Also I am jealous of the loves across the hall cause they are never tired and like don't sleep! I can't wait until one day when I am able to do that.
Third topic of 3 am is my stocking knitting addiction. In 2 weeks I have knit 15 of them and am about half way done number 16! They are for a good cause though. They are going to be stuffed and sent to soldiers in Afghanistan. Mostly with things like toiletries but those are much appreciated. I am going to try to stop making them when I hit number 20 but I'm predicting I've become too addicted to stop there.
MoVing on, I can't wait until thanksgiving break! I miss my bed and I'm betting that I actually sleep while I'm home! I also really miss my sister and my dogs. Plus it will be nice to not have to call my parents to talk to them. So hopefully you enjoyed the first edition of Oh my Gah! Off to do something else while sleep evades me.
