Don't ask me whats wrong, ask me whats right. And Imma tell you whats life?

So I did in fact get into Vanderbilt, with funding. It's extremely nice. I always thought Well, even if I do get in, I'll still have to get a scholarship.
But I suppose there really is a great plan for everything. All these money problems have just caused Vanderbilt to give me a ton of grant money for school.
It's just such a load off of my shoulders.
I did have problems telling people at first. It was something I whispered. I told my closer friends. I just feel like I am bragging everytime I open my mouth about it. They all say I should brag, but I feel guilty. haha. I decided to put .. I am a commodore on my status on facebook rather than LOOK AT ME. I AM GOING TO VANDY! haha.. thats what the adrenaline in me wantedto say.. but then again I also want people to be happy for me rather than.. wow.. shes full of herself. I do feel very blessed and I am thankful to have been given this opportunity.

This Christmas break has been wonderful. I have been celebrating and relaxing for once. I have been incredibly happy. Whatever my unexplainable mood was that has enveloped me lately, is now replaced with this incredible state of euphoria.

I am pretty content : ). However if any other dreams of mine would like to come true, let them come. There is always more room for happiness.

Tonight I am hosting a dirty Santa party at my house for the Student Government kids. We always have fun in fourth period so I thought it'd be nice to bring that fun outside of school.

On a more.. philosophical note. I have been thinking about our soul. Deathcab for Cutie shuffled onto my sisters ipod as she was riding with me to Mississippi. "Where soul meets body"....
It's amazing that our emotions, sadness, happiness can facilitate tears and laughter, etc.
But I wonder.. our soul must be attached to our body, until our body quits working. I just wonder what the soul does at that point.
Any spiritual happening must still be connected to our body such as the "white light" that people see when they die and come back. It still is most likely a connection to the spiritual world and it is also our brains shutting down (when that part of the brain quits functioning, it produces white light frequency to our eyes.. according to research anyway.)

But once our soul is no longer connected.. what does it do? It no longer has anything to attach to.

Just something I think about sometimes. I believe there is a connection that can be found somehow through emotions, soul, genetics, science.

I also wonder why I wonder about things like this. It makes me chuckle at my nerdy self.
