Happiness is...
The joys of being a godmother. Today was the big day, and though I started off feeling scared and nervous, it was an amazing day. And now, congratulations to my dearest god-daughter Alejandra Soleil! I love you oodles :)
It was a short and very informal service, followed by a very scrumptious reception. And of course the whole family was truly beautiful. I couldn't have asked for more!

Other side of things
Happiness is...
Being on the other side of things. When I was young, I saw things from a young lens. I lived through it, thrived, and moved on. And now I am older and seeing things from the other side. It's a little weird, but mostly refreshing.
They say the grass is always greener on the other side. That may be true, but it doesn't mean you can't learn to appreciate the view. Now that I'm graduated and returning in a different capacity, of course things are different. But I love life all the same. I can still see people I enjoy, do the things that I liked, and live it up. This weekend is one of those times. I love my ladies!

Girls Weekend
Happiness is...
Time with sisters... time to make everything seem a little less crazy. They're good for that!

Weekend
Happiness is...
Knowing that the weekend is coming. After all, after Tuesday even the calendar says WTF. This weekend, I am getting out of here... ignoring the still-not-fixed apartment, and heading to a cabin with some sisters. Anticipation is what will get me through the next two days. Yay weekend!

Nostalgia
Happiness is...
Remembering the good old college days. Looking back on late nights, long trips, and everything spectacular. Recalling the greatest things you did with yourself, and the connections that came of it.
It happens at the most opportune times. The week may start off rough, but you'll always find solace in a good friend. You go to dinner with old sorority sisters, and suddenly you're thrust into a time before, long before you worried about the bills or dreaded the alarm going off at 6am for work. It's a time before life. And it is life in its entirety. You're eating with your sisters, reminiscing, and you can ride that high for the rest of the week if you so choose.
I know I am.
So, don't grow up too fast. Tell them every day how much they mean to you. Make memories instead of making money. In the long run, it's just easier that way. Your friends are really what get you through it all.

Friends are my medicine
Happiness is...
Seeing old friends for the first time in a decade, and knowing the hugs will still feel the same.
