I'm proud because I took my sister shopping today, even though I didn't want to, and I was hot and flustered and tired but I didn't feel like screaming when all the crowds were around me. I coped well.

I didn't cut myself today! And I was kind of happy! This is huge for me. :-)

But I can't find my sleeping pills.. uh oh.

I've relaxed and kept myself from dwelling on things, that don't need to be dwelled upon.

I weathered questions from my parents yesterday and today and didn't freak out.

It's because of the medicine, a lot, but I have to take the medicine for it to work, so I'm proud of myself for that.

Because I have the version of Jingle Bells that we are marching to tomorrow almost completely memorized.. save for a couple measures..

and I learned the Walton's theme song on my trumpet.. [ I was bored..]

Because I said outloud that I am content, and honestly.. right on the edge of being honest to God happy.. I said it outloud for another to hear it.. and saying it made it seem closer to being true.

when i was really upset/agitated i went for a long walk
breathing deeply the entire way. then i got some things
that i am going to need tomorrow, which i wouldn't
have thought of if i was consumed with upset. and
when i got home, i was feeling MUCH better. :P

Because I am actually working little by little to get my evil physics work done, still leaving time for other schoolwork to be done AND time to just relax on here.. instead of leaving it all for tomorrow, when I'd stress out completely.
