It is a beautiful day outside. The cold has let up a bit and the sun has come out to warm us. Me specifically. I asked and it kindly obliged. How nice.
I am super busy with school and work at the moment, and It was really starting to catch up with me. I have two papers due this week, a take home test...due yesterday....yeah....a presentation tomorrow, and my recital on Thursday. Yikes. Somehow I am still functioning like a semi-normal human being. Don't ask how please. You might disrupt whatever magic is doing this to me.
But magic help or not, I just love today. It was just what I needed. I woke up with a knot in my neck, baggy eyes and a really thick you-were-making-out-with-the-wall-while-you-were-asleep taste in my mouth, which is just not the ideal start for an already stressful day. BUT NONE OF THAT MATTERS! I am just so happy right now! My room was warm and toasty this morning. A book that I have been dying to read (and ordered online) shipped today. I have met some neat people recently and they are fast becoming close friends. That is so cool. You know you are jealous. Admit it.
So with all I have going on, I am still happy. And all cause today was so smashingly wonderful.
So, here is the perfect song to sum up how I feel. It is the ACTUAL original (so many claim to be the original, but I went to the source. It is from the original musical, and sung here by the original performer.) song and I love it so much. I hope it makes your day as good as mine!
Which it wont, cause my day is just that good right now. :P
"We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul--We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things." -The Thirteenth Article of Faith

Remember When It Rained
It has been raining for several days now.
Most people don't like to get caught in the rain. Especially if it is a cold, extra wet rain. You know the type. The kind where you only have to be out in the drizzle for a minute before it is in your bones and your fingers and toes seem to be frozen for the rest of the day. The warm, still half sunny day type of rain is nice, but it is almost October now. Those days are gone for the year.
And even the people who don't like getting caught in the rain can appreciate it from inside their cozy little homes. They say as they look at the glistening lawn "Oh good, we needed that rain. The grass was so brown", or even "Bout time. I've missed hearing that sound," as they listen to the patter of the water on the roof. And even I appreciate a cool refreshing drink once in a while. It's good to have a really really cold glass of water to drink. So refreshing. And I feel that nature deserves it every once in a while too.
But you see, my roof leaks. I don't like the rain.

RANDOM! And also stress. A little. And friends.
So I worry about things. Its easy for me to stress, and if it can possibly be stressed about, I will feel said stress. Which is stressful.
And to be honest, Ive been worried about my blogging. Its kind of random. I have realized this. And I have not stopped being random. Again with the stress thing. (and dont worry...its not like it keeps me up at night...its just when I look at my blog I wonder and feel a little worried then I get distracted by something pretty and it goes away.) But I have decided that its ok to be random. You see, thats how my brain works. It just goes from one thing to the other. Really fast. Talk to anyone who knows me well. They will probably tell you about how I change subject randomly. My housemate Brandon even remarked on it one time, and interrupted my comment by saying "Whoa there bud....that transition happened really fast and you left the rest of us at the station. What are you even talking about?"
Which of course was very frustrating, as it made perfect sense to me where tyhe comment came from, and it slowed down the progress of the conversation to explain it. Part of me wanted to chide them for not being attentive to the movements of my mind. The other part was worried that I had a legitimate problem communicating and that maybe I should fix it or else people would begin to hate talking to me. And the stress again.
On the bright side I made some new friends today. They came into Alexander's today and stayed for six hours. And we had a rather enjoyable time. Random yes, but enjoyable.
:)
