I was able to say, though not directly, that I needed a hug from a guy.. and I was able to get that hug from my band director.

I was able to get my feelings out without screaming and cursing out my mother.. when that's what I wanted to do.

I played my solo right in Jazz at a gig. When I was begging the Admiral to just cut it out of the song this morning.

I'm proud of myself because I distracted myself by doing something productive (I got all my Christmas shopping done for all my friends).

I'm proud that I didn't SI yesterday.
