This Moment

Recently I've been really focusing on living in this moment...not in the past, or particularly the future (as I often ha e trouble with), and these are a few things I take for granted daily.....
-The college life. You know, taking maps at random times, eating so much takeout and Easy Mac, living with a (girl) roommate (who I love...:)), not being on a *regular* schedule, and so on!
-My job at the gym. I don't do anything. Literally...I swipe cards and do my homework (or procrastinate by reading and crocheting). Pretty cushy.
-My free time! Even with school and work, I have SO much free time. So I catch up on Hulu and Netflix. I know in 10 years when I'm probably married with babies I won't be able to...(housewives do some work don't they?) ;)
-Using my meal plan for coffee. I basically get $4 coffee for free a few times a week.
-Dating my boyfriend. He's my best friend and I love every second with him that I can get! He's helped me with probably a little too much homework...but you didn't hear that from me...
-Free sports games (cough, football). Enough said.

And currently? I'm having a date night with my man. And by that, I mean we walked around the mall, ate dinner at Mimi's, and now we're hanging out with his roommates while I watch them play a football video game. And I love it. I'm taking this moment to take a mental picture and remember this moment where they're yelling, laughing, and singing (rapping?) along to the music. Ahh...perfect. Even if Lady Gaga and Brittany Spears are on in an apartment full of boys. *Shakes head.*

Take a few moments to think of the things you're taking for granted...and be grateful. Happy weekend!
