Sometimes you have to drop everything and do something fun. Tonight I had a ton of homework to catch up on and I had really planned to make a start on it. Then I got a text from one of my friends asking if I wanted to go eat with some other friends. Guess which one I chose?

While I'll be staying up super late to finish my homework now, I still got to have some fun in between Spanish and physical science. Last year -- even maybe last semester -- I would have turned down this offer because I would want to put my homework first and then hang out by myself. I would go to bed early. While going to bed early is great and doing your homework early is great, going out and having a good time is also great. There are going to be a lot of times when you can say no to people. You can say no all the time. How often do you think you say yes?

I used to say no all the time. Do you know what happens when you keep telling someone no? They stop asking. There was a point a couple of years ago when I just decided to start doing stuff, to say yes to people more often. Sometimes I say yes too much and end up wishing I had said no instead. You can't say yes to everything, but you can say yes to a lot of things and you should. 

catch you later,
