Aww, thank you, both of you! I'm flattered.
I don't go to school in Arizona at all, unfortunately. I almost ended up going to UofA with a friend of mine, though!
I agree with both of you about bringing your own happiness. We can't change the things that happen around us, but what we
are in control of is how we react to them. And as cliché as this sounds - every cloud has a silver lining, and everything happens for a reason. Roll with the punches and you'll be just fine.
I seem to remember a song about a door closing so you can open one that leads to the perfect road... Uh... Brb, Googling...
ETA: ...DUH. Firework by Katy Perry. Wow, I don't function well on three hours of sleep. Anyway, what I meant by this is that maybe you feel like you're missing out by being a part of a group you didn't necessarily see yourself in, but this could be a blessing in disguise if you go with it and do your best! So don't just shut yourself away blah blah insert a standard cheery peptalk here, I need to get ready for work.
