17. My Little Girl

Date: Sunday, November 28, 2010
Time: 6:39 p.m.
Reason: On my way back to school from a visit home I was listening to my ipod and Tim McGraw's song My Little Girl came on. I thought of my Daddy and it made me cry.

16. Goodbye

Date: Sunday, November 28, 2010
Time: 3:00 p.m.
Reason: I went home for a visit this weekend and had a really nice time with friends and family. Sitting on the Greyhound, waiting to pull out of the station, I looked at my Mom waving and started crying.

15. "Calloused Hand by Calloused Hand"

Date: Wednesday, November 24, 2010
Time: 10:28 a.m.
Reason: In reporting class today, we watched Obama's victory speech.  The point of the exercise was to write a news story on the event, however, I was far too emotional to write anything serious enough for a newspaper. The part that really got me was when he thanked his wife and children.  And, probably my favourite line in the speech, the quote in the title of this post.  I would also like to note that as soon as my professor announced the task, I said, "Oh great, I'm going to cry."  If you have time, even if you've already seen it, watch the speech

14. Daron Richardson

Date: Thursday, November 18, 2010
Time: 4:21 p.m.
Reason: On my break at work I picked up a copy of the Metro that was laying on one of the tables and started to read the story about Daron Richardson.  It was so heartbreaking.  I knew a few sentences in that I should not have read it while at work because a quarter of the way through the tears were streaming down my face.  Please pray for the Richardson family.

13. Overwhelmed

Date: Thursday, November 12, 2010
Time: 10:22 a.m.
Reason: I have a 10 page essay to tackle in just a few days and I was feeling overwhelmed by it this morning.  I am now on page 5 and things are looking good!

11. and 12. Mean Girl

Date: Sunday, November 7, 2010
Time: 7:57 p.m. - 8:11 p.m.
Reason: I cried two separate times because I was such a jerk to my boyfriend tonight.  He comforted me both times. I love you Marc.

10. Wrong Side of the Road

Date: Sunday, November 7, 2010
Time: 3:46 p.m.
Reason: I waited 20 minutes for my bus and then watched it drive past on the other side of the road.  Can anyone explain to me why a bus that goes through BILLINGS BRIDGE on its way DOWNTOWN would not pick you up at the transitway station with a big arrow saying BILLINGS BRIDGE, DOWNTOWN? 
I was also extremely hungry.
