favorite quote. as you can see from the picture, it's "all happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love" said by Baruch Benedict Spinoza. i think it means a lot in my life. the way i deconstructed it is that how the person you love acts determines if you are happy or sad. it's really meaningful because as much as it shouldn't be, if mike gets angry and we have a fight, my world crashes and i get upset. but if he's happy, everything is perfect and good. it's the same thing the other way around. the way we react and act with each other determines how our relationship will be. it's like that for everyone.

mike, nick and alanna came up last night=] it was a really great time. we got dinner at buffalo wild wings and came back to the apartment to hang out. i need nights like this probably every night to keep sane and happy. especially when it means as much to them as it does to me. 4 days and it happens all over again, only better. it was more than difficult to get out of bed this morning. i look at mike sleeping and i just fall in love with him again every morning we wake up together. thank god this is going to happen every morning we live together. i wouldn't ever ask for anything else after i have that. they left at 8 am, got some more sleep then had class. diana said yes to being my second reader and that gave me motivation to start these 25 pages i need done. i got 2 pages done for senior project. it was dani and sari's interview. i think it turned out pretty well for the first of maybe 6 or 7. i'll do more soon, i just really need a break. transcribing the interview then coming up with a frame for it is really hard. i hope the history part and the other parts are easier. xo.
