Ten things that have made today awesome:

1. The rainbow that was across the whole sky driving home
2. Going to my parents and driving through fall colors
3. Breaking into musical numbers with my dad in the kitchen.
4. Figuring out my Halloween costume! (it involves crafting!)
5. Appetizer Party for the first Tigers play off game.
6. Hot tea on a cold day.
7. Finding the most random things in the backpack I take to school everyday. An apple, ruler, bar of soap, a box of assorted screws and nails.....
8. Talking my mom into talking my dad into getting a puppy when they get back from Florida in February.
9. Rain-outs mean an extra day of play off games. <3 Tigers
10. Random Texts

I've tried to start a blog about 200 times before today. "Sure- It'll be okay!" I think I'll just update the world (aka my friends) on the goings on of my life. I'll post cool photographs... look around for things that I like and write about things. It would usually last a few days, a few weeks, maybe a month on and off. And then, cut off- without warning.

Maybe that was too ambitious for an undergrad student. I felt challenged to constantly think of new and exciting things to say. I struggled with writing about what was going on in my life, and finding new and exciting things to share. I would give up before I really started.

So, I decided to start out simply. Ten things a day (Or around 10 anyway), that have in some way made the day wonderful. Maybe some days there will be a photo, maybe someday, I'll branch out, maybe they'll be two things, or 25 things. Maybe some days there will not be a post at all. Or seven posts in one day. The point is, that there are no rules. Focusing on the positive is encouraging and is much for me as it is for the people that I share this with.
