Universal Truths

So, I have come up with some universal truths lately that should have probably taken me a lot less time than 26 years to figure out. Oh well.

1. If you never put anything on your floor than the floor will not accumulate all your crap. For a week I lived by the rule that nothing could be put on the floor that didn't belong there. For example, laundry. I kept my room clean for a whole week!  It took one day to destroy my new found glory when I had to rush and get ready for a weekend away and did laundry in a hurry. Never fear though my friends, after this week of blissful cleanliness, I couldn't stand my room with stuff on the floor so I immediately cleaned it. Habit successfully formed!!!!!!!!!

2. Putting off paying for stuff makes you spend more in the long run. I'm not a penny pincher although I probably should be. However, I don't like to spend money on anything really. Unless I can eat it. Unfortunately, I hate spending more than $20 at a time, so sometimes grocery shopping has seemed like an expensive endeavor. But, I have come to the realization that if I spend more money on groceries than I won't spend as much on going out to eat. This habit is taking a little more time to develop since I love going out to eat. Also I put off buying essentials like lotion, shampoo, make-up until it is absolutely necessary to buy them. I therefore, end up buying them all at the same time which puts a cramp in that weeks pay. No bueno. Had I not been a tight-wad all along it wouldn't have been a problem.

3. I'm only as happy and social as I want to be. I've always considered myself a social butterfly but lately I've been content to just staying in and doing whatever comes to mind with my roomies or with my fam. While these are both good options, they might not be best. I tend to get re-energized by people and therefore have missed that rejuvenation. Also apparently people think we are a clique. Whatever the heck that means. Really people, I'm just sitting in my apartment waiting for you  to come play with me. I know that's not how it works but I'm hoping that one day it will. :)

4. I can literally do anything I set my mind to if I'm willing to do the work to get there. I used to not actually believe this one. Sadly. It just hit me recently though. Pretty cool if you think about it.

I'm sure there are loads of others I've learned. These are just a few of them. Enjoy!
