こんにちは　（＾３＾）/

これは新しいブログレイアウトです。

どうですか。

昨晩めっちゃ疲れました。

This week has felt really long. Maybe the longest in a long time.

Maybe I used long too many times in the sentence above ne? 

I searched for a layout last night for a long time while listening to calming music.

I feel a little more optimistic now and focused.

It really does feel heavy carrying around feelings and thoughts inside your mind without the ability to speak them to someone.

I feel like some of the tenseness is draining away slowly...

For this, I am really happy. 

I just want to be happy. I want my friends and family to be happy as well.

Life is too short and precious to be aching so much.

Today I am trying my new hair piece again. I don't have makeup on though so I needed to hide my face! 

Yesterday went well. I feel relieved.

I got some work done and today I feel at ease. Although some original plans are changing, I still plan on making the most of the day.

 Ordered a new camera from my friend

 Study and review classwork

 Practice new Kanji and vocabulary

 Spend time with a friend..?

 Finish another article

 Put on a face mask and pleasure read

シンプルですね。

シンプルな女の人ですよ！

Please don't confuse that for simple minded! I mean simple things make me happy! 

Other thoughts...

Finally my secret santa gave me my gift! (It is almost Valentines Day and we are just doing this now..)

Sock Monkey!!! Really cute! You know, I also have sock monkey slippers and along with Mickey Mouse, monkeys are at the top of my list..

This monkey is particularly big though and takes up a lot of room in my dorm actually.

It works well as a pillow however, unlike the tiger stuffed animal I use to have on the bed with cardboard stuffed in its head. 

I am thankful for it. He said it isn't very cute, but, come on! Who can deny sock monkey? Only heartless people..

I also thanked my sister and friend Key because they definitely lent a hand in picking it out. They know me oh to well.

This week was startling busy and full of thoughts. I hope everyone has their moment to really smile and be happy this weekend. Laugh a lot and sleep peaceful without worrying.
