Things have been going great lately! I have been going to my classes, getting all of my homework done, plus, I got an A on my pschology test. My roommate has been gone since last Friday because her Grandpa died. In this time that I have had the room to myself, I realized how much more productive I am. I actually get my homework done and study because I have peace and quiet to do it in. Every time she is here (which is quite often), all I want to do is leave. Then, I end up going out to parties or to someone's apartment and my school work never gets done.

So, with that in mind, I have decided to change rooms. I am still going to live in Barnhart, but I am going to live in a single room instead. I will probably start moving my stuff tomorrow or Friday. I am so excited!

Another positive thing is that I have completely stopped doing bad stuff (i.e. coke, etc.). I kind of re-evaluated my life and asked myself if I was happy and if I was where I wanted to be. My answer was no. I was extremely unhappy and dependent and bored with my life. Now that I have changed things, I am a lot happier. I am a lot more myself. The only thing I do now is drink occasionally.

To be completely honest, it was hard at first. But, I stuck to my plan of "getting clean" and it worked. The funny thing is that once you get past the first week, it is not even a challege after that. I do not even want to do anything; coke sounds unappealing. Being productive, content, and happy on my own is a great high (not to sound cheesy or anything). It actually makes me mad that I wasted such a long time not living when I could have been.

Anyway, I should get to sleep soon because I have a psych lab at 8:30 am.
