catharsis

I'm such a girl.

tears just streamed uncontrollably down my cheeks when the Red Sox won game 7. and i'm not even a true sox fan!! i was definitely pulling for them, but that's really only because they were the underdog, and because when i roomed with jodi, she told me a lot about the Sox and i grew to like them. so i was pretty excited they made it this far. but i've really gotta' stop this frequent crying stuff.

actually, on second thought, i don't know that i really do want to stop it. i have noticed that ever since i quit entertainment last fall, i have become a much more sensitive and emotional person. i think i was already emotional, but not in a good way. i really do cry at everything, though. examples? lots of Oprah episodes, songs on the radio, when i hear about people's prayers being answered, when i think about people's struggles, just to name a few. but i was thinking about it the other day and decided that i should pray that God continues to soften my heart, because i think i should see this as a good sign that i am personally touched by so many things. so it is with a change of heart that i say i want to keep crying. it shows you have a heart. just remember that girls: crying is great!

other than that, this bad day has become a pretty good one. i decided to dress up today and make myself feel better, and ever since then little things have made me happier and happier. so, i think i'll write about Hope some now, then head to bed.

i would like to give a BIG shout-out to Bernie Derosiers: Boston native, born a Boston fan, and will definitely die a Boston fan. congratulations, bernie. thanks for all of your dedication and relentless support. :)

and with that, i say goodnight!
