Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies.
~Erich Fromm
I wanted to start my post off with a good and uplifting quote. I believe in this quote 100%. Yes, we all go through our daily struggles whether it be emotional, physical, financial, etc etc but at the end of the day who is to say whether all if it is worth it? I believe wholeheartedly that it is worth it. You just have to stick it out and trust that you're on the right and golden path and that God will fulfill your rightful blessings as he sees fit.
I can't believe it's been 11 whole days since my last post, but as you can probably notice in the title...I've had alot going on. Let's begin with
:Nights Out:
My last post I talked about myself and my ladies getting all dolled up and hitting the socialite scene. Well here we are looking quite dazzling I must say. I had an amazing time. I did meet a guy as I was walking back to my car. He was sweet, but a tad too short for me. He has text me a few times (Key word: text) I say if you're genuinely interested in someone, you pick up the phone and call them, but HEY. Maybe that's just me? Needless to say...I've stopped responding to his text after I got a "Hey Sexxy" one the other day. The most annoying there ever. Maybe a little respect? And last time I checked my name was Courtney, not "Sexxy" Thanks.

:Wisdom Teeth:
Yes, at 25 I'm still having my wisdom teeth taken out. My appointment was last Thursday (August 25th) I had my top and bottom right side teeth taken out. This local practice did not put me to sleep so I was awake for the ride :/ They did a local anesthesia instead. My bottom gave the dentist the most trouble. When he pulled it out he said to his assistant, "Oh wow, I've never seen a three root molar before!..Oh wait, the root just broke off!" So they literally went digging for gold for the tip of the root. After holding my mouth open for what seemed like 78 minutes, they finally got the little critter out. WAIT I almost forgot. When I first arrived to the office this is what I was greeted with:
 |
| Birds chirping. Literally. |
Yes! The damn receptionist having a full blown kissy session with her bird!
Only me! How's crazy is this? And is this even healthy? Come to find out the dental assistant and his wife (bird kisser) had just recently moved into a new home and the birds weren't allowed. So okay cool, let's just bring them on into the office! Weird.
Anywho, I'm healing pretty good. The meds I'm prescribed are officially my bestfriend.
NOTE TO SELF: Do not take drowsiness causing pain meds even if you are 5 minutes from home and even if you do need to drop of our redbox and the post office and then eventually get greeted by a church man giving out free milkshakes then proceed into the pharmacy/post office and catch yourself falling asleep waiting for a mint chocolate chip milkshake.
I actually took a picture of my teeth but figured I'd save you all from seeing them up close and personal. I'm glad that's over with. I now have ONE wisdom tooth left and as far as I'm concerned...it can stay there. I'm done with dentist for a while.
:Surprise Flowers:
Now remember how such a hopeless romantic I am from My first post? Well I got a little taste of it yesterday. So let me back up and give a little story on how these flowers came about. Well the lady I work with has a daughter about my age. She had wanted her mom to show me a picture of him..la la la..you get the picture. So he eventually sends me a friend request on facebook and since his profile was open I fully stalked him before I accepted his friend request. haha :) (Precautionary methods) We'll we exchange numbers and text a little over the weekend. He sends me a sweet little text before my surgery and we had our first conversation Sunday night. So I'm at work helping a professor when I see a random lady walk into our building. Immediately my ears perk up (Eeeerrrrrrrrrrr ) <--That's for you Nia ;) So I ask, "Can I help you?" She proceeds to say she is looking for Courtney! I say, "That's me!" So here they are....

| Super sweet card |
He sent me FLOWERS!! Ahhhhhhhh! So of course I send a mass text to all my friends and call my mom immediately. I mean seriously, how thoughtful he is? Oh I forgot to mention that he asked me to lunch on Wednesday so I'm looking forward to that for sure. Now this is the stuff I love! Just genuine guys doing what they can to put a smile on a girls face. Well it surely worked. Since I prefer to keep names secret, I'm going to refer to him as Mr. Future President. (long story behind it, but trust me..it's worthy.) Will for sure keep you posted on how lunch goes :)
:Graduate School:
Today was my first day of Graduate School. Talk about eye opening. I'm so thankful that I've come this far and I know that with the support and love from my family, friends and an amazing God that my opportunities are nothing but endless. Here I am on my first day of school :)
