Optimist: Person who travels on nothing from nowhere to happiness. - Mark Twain

January has flown by! I've had to start looking at what I have planned for February, and unfortunately the tests and papers that are due this month. But, something that I'm looking the most forward to is my trip to New Orleans at the end of the month. Well, today I started packing! My heart smiled when I realized how quickly my trip is approaching and started putting aside some clothing items and toiletries.
