A Day Inside Eileen's Head

Sometimes my thoughts are constellations I cannot fathom into stars...other times...it's just a mess.

Sometimes people are like, "you wouldn't be so sad if you just thought happy thoughts!" And sometimes, trust me, I wish I could just easily change my thoughts. I can't control where my thoughts go: so here's a day with Eileen and her thoughts.

23:35- I just feel incredibly worthless. I took a nap like I usually do, but I'm extremely tired and it's not even midnight yet. Also, I don't know why I keep reminiscing because God knows that never is a good idea and I just end up in tears. I feel like nothing I do is good enough, especially not for myself. Hamilton won't go to stop crying and I don't know why he is and we're both helpless. I'm going to try to go to sleep, even if it means crying myself to sleep.

01:12- I'm so alone? I hate feelings. I hate feeling this way. But it's okay. Eliza flies in on Saturday morning and she won't be able to get rid of me for the weekend. Also, I really miss my pink hair. I should dye my hair again. Pinterest always has the best ideas. Maybe I shouldn't dye my hair. It won't match the outfit I'm wearing to the wedding on Saturday...eh..bump it.

08:00- Oh my god. Why am I awake right now? It's too early. I guess my body's used to it. Maybe I should go use the bathroom. But my bed is so warm. Today's gonna be a good day! I hate feeling this way but today is gonna be a good day! I'm so tired though...maybe if I just keep my one eye closed I can just... fall...back...asleep...

11:54- Oh yikes. I have so many messages. I should not have woken up and started conversations and just passed out. My bad y'all. I think that I'm gonna do my hair tonight. Yup. I'm definitely gonna do my hair tonight. Ena said I should do blue...I think I'm gonna go with an aqua. I'M SO EXCITED.

16:14- MICHELE AND I ARE GONNA GO TO THE STORE SOON AND I'M GONNA DYE MY HAIR. I just cannot wait! Mom's probably gonna say something along the lines of, "Eileen you're gonna go bald" and my reply will just be the shruggy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I'm so excited! Also, I just bought my girls things for RYLA and I'm so excited for that too! I'm almost done with summer classes!! I'm doing so well in both of my classes and this is gonna help my GPA so much.

23:06- Welp. My hair is teal. This is for sure an interesting color. Do I love it? Not sure yet. I was thinking earlier while I was dying my hair, that I usually do my hair when I'm not feeling too great but at the same time...I do get bored of it. Also, no one really cares about what I'm writing about when it's just my thoughts.

They weren't even that bad today, which I mean is good for me-- but kinda boring to read. But then again, people don't worry about me. I'm so excited to see my sister tomorrow!!!!!! Also, why do I have such a large forehead? Oh goodness..is this hair gonna match the outfit I have planned for the wedding? Ugh. I don't know. Life is confusing sometimes. I overthink everything too much.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
