The definition of Devree

"No two people are alike". What makes a person so different from everyone else? It should be obvious but really what is it? I decided to make a list of what sets me apart from everyone else...what makes me special...what makes me Devree.

Oh Happy Day!

i did not have by any normal standards a spectacular or sensational day. but on the inside...in my heart i did. i got to vent and set goals as i usually do once a month with the lovely Cami. =] i then came home and snacked on string cheese and grapes while watching my new favorite movie of the week- Hairspray! (Zac Efron= YUM!) and then, since my parents are always making me dinner, i thought i would make them dinner! YAY! i ended up making a friend's recipe called jazzed up tomato soup which has dried onions, garlic powder, bacon chunks and cheese in it. it is SOO good and it turned out to be a hit with mis padres! *commence dancing and spinning in chair in celebration* we also had grilled cheese sandwhiches which were also yummy!

and then finally to top the night off, I went over to Becca, Debbie and Steph's house to watch Stardust! it was quite funny at first because Jessie did not want to watch it at all. but as time went on, she was literally on the edge of her seat and squeed with the rest of us girls while the guys just laughed at us. we were all slapstick happy and making jokes the entire time. i haven't laughed that much in a long while and it felt great!

i'm happy with my life once again even though it's not quite what i want it to be. i have the light back on inside of me! =]

Letting go with Love

it never really occured to me until recently that in order to move on, you have to let go with love in your heart. This concept was completely foreign to me until i had a discussion with one of my good friends. there i was hurt and distraught over something that was completely out of my control and she told me that in order to move on, i have to let go with love in my heart. and until i am able to do that, i cannot fully move on. and last night, i was finally able to do that. i feel so much happier already! it still stings a little, but that is overshadowed by the joy i feel!

in other news, school is almost over. GAAAAH. so much to do with so little time!
