My family reunion is in about a week and a half.

I know that I shouldn't complain. I am in New York, and I am loving it, but I am very jealous of how my whole family gets to get together and see each other.

I do wish I could go. I miss my family immensely, and I didn't get to go last year either, so I wish I could see my cousins and aunts and uncles and grandparents (and my sisters and parents for that matter).

So, I've been a little sad-ish lately. And because of this, there are some things that I should stop doing.

I should stop watching Dawson's Creek. Something about watching eloquent teenagers whine about how bad their lives are inspires a pity party inside of me that makes me want to cry about everything "wrong" in my life. (wrong is in quotation marks because there's really nothing wrong in my life)

I should not watch the "Michael is Leaving" episodes of the Office. It's like losing your best friend.

I should also probably stop whining about what makes me sad. Then I won't be feeling sad.

Also, I should listen to this song more often.

And this one.

And this one.

And especially this one.
