Day 57: I've been tagged!

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on. Robert Frost

Healthy Ashley has tagged me on a Six Word Challenge: I'm supposed to sum up my life in a six word memoir...At first I thought that this was going to be really tough b/c I'm not one for brevity but two phrases that shape my life stuck out at me: Life goes on and Just do it and it's six words...how perfect.

The first phrase is something that I am learning is true the older I get and the more decisions I have to make on my own. My mom always used to tell me as I was growing up that "nothing is as good or as bad as it seems at first; Life goes on." I'm learning more and more that this is true. The past year has hands down been one of the more defining years of my life because I've faced a lot of challenges that I didn't anticipate in my life and I've had to brush them off and just keep going. And it was hard and first--No scratch that, its always hard but it's easier everyday because I'm still here and I'm still surviving and theres still something to smile about everyday. No matter how much you think your world has shattered around you, the sun still rises the next day.

The second phrase "Just do it" is something that I'm learning to incorporate into my life recently. You may have seen me use it on my blog and I think it rings true for all walks/facets of life. I used to be a procrastinator, dwell on the past, not move on sort of person but I'm learning more and more that sometimes you have to Just do it with life. No second guessing, no excuses just jump in head first. You wanna go running...DO IT! before you talk yourself out of it! You wanna get that assignment done...just DO IT! right now! You wanna pursue that dream of yours...DO IT! Don't put off what you can do now to the future...who knows what rewards you might be missing out on. This is true for weight loss too. For years and years I "wanted" to weight loss, I was "on a diet" but it took a change in thinking, a change in my perceptions and an attitude of "I'm gonna do it NOW" that finally gets me to see results!

Okay, told you I wasn't one for brevity ;)

Hmm, I have no idea who to tag...it seems like everyone I visit in blogosphere has already been hit! I tag 30 down-10 more to go!, Randi and Chocolate Ramblings
Okay I'm out! If I find more people, I'll tag 'em later

OH and P.S. MY TV BROKE TODAY!! *many tears were spilled in the writing of this post*
I'm in mourning at the moment. Good bye pre-bedtime Sex and the City...good bye in between classes What I like about you (yes, I actually watch that even though I think Amanda Bynes is a little whinny and annoying) ...Good bye Law and Order: SVU and CSI, good bye new shows coming on in April (The Office and Grey's), good bye CNBC and early morning stock tickers, good bye CNN and up to date news. Goodbye life outside the college bubble.
