First day of school

I believe in pink, I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

I'm jittery, and it's not just the three cups of coffee I've drank today. My prettiest notebook has been carefully packed alongside my camera for my first night of school. It's like this for every new course, every new beginning. Butterflies in my stomach and a yearning to soak up as much knowledge as possible. I read my manual at lunch and can't wait to skip out the doors when the day is done. Sure, I haven't slept much and my body aches from the abuse it took at soccer last night. No subs is bad news, as are rough players on the other team. But for once in the past couple days, I'm not craving dreamworlds and my warm, cozy, albeit broken, bed.

Also of note, my first kiss was showcased on the 20-Something Bloggers' blog for the January Blog Carnival. You should read the other entries here, they are awesome and will have you aching for summer lovin', which happens so fast.
