Are we there yet?

Do you ever feel unattractive? Well, maybe not so much unattractive, as unwanted......or are they the same thing? I'm experiencing a mid-semester slump and it seems to be affecting everything. I'm tired all the time, broke, and constantly doing homework. I stay up too late and get up too early and can't keep up. I just feel icky.


There's something about this time of year that makes one want a significant other. My roommate says its because its cold and nobody wants to go outside, so they stay in and "nest". Cute, huh? I agree. Theres just something about cloudy and cold weather that makes you want to cuddle. Well, me and roommate both agree its nice to be single, but its gets old after a while. But I just don't know what to do. I feel like maybe I'm the one who should start initiating things but its hard when you feel fat, and tired and just not attractive. I don't know, maybe I'm too hard on myself. I just have this image of what I want and I don't know how to get it. I know I should wait until the right person comes along, but waiting is hard. Now, I don't want people to think this is like a "oh poor, poor pitiful me" blog entry, but come on.........I don't like to reveal this side of myself to everyone, but I've got to get it out of my system. Until then, I guess I'll just keep waiting..........

“There is no such thing as accident; it is fate misnamed”

Co-in-ci-dence
-noun: a striking occurence of two or more events at one time apparently by mere chance.

What do you consider a coincidence? I've experienced many coincidences, but some stick out in my mind more than others. I don't know if this is a bad thing or a good thing, but how do you know whats right and whats not? When do you start seeing a coincidence as a sign and learn from it? Some coincidences repeat themselves....could this be the synonym known as fate?

Two events happening at the same time.....by chance.......or not. I think another way of saying coincidence is wake-up call. And I'm not talking about just runnning into someone at the store you were just thinking of, I'm talking about life-changing events, things that make us change our feelings or outlook on something. When something like this happens its time to look around and listen to what that little voice in the back of your head is saying. I know, its not easy, but we have instincts for a reason. Sometimes an occurence only there by "mere chance" can make us see what wasn't there all along.......or maybe it was, but we just couldn't let it out. This has been on my mind a lot lately. I just can't stand to see a coincidence go bad............
