| For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
~William Wordsworth
I am taking the time to make an entry to document that at this moment I am happy.
Not bouncing-off-the-walls, jumping-up-and-down happy. I'm not running around, singing at the top of my lungs.
Instead, the sharp edges of life have blurred just enough that I find myself smiling when I'm walking to class. Or that when I went to Target, I impulsively bought two DVD's without worrying about the cost. All the little worries at the edge of my consciousness have faded back far enough that my mind is not consumed with the dread of reading textbooks, or finding a summer job. I go through the motions everyday, but I do so as though I'm floating about 2 inches above the ground.
A week of unbroken happiness is pretty rare in this world. And so, when this ends and I am mercilessly deposited on the ground, I can remember this, as Wordsworth remembers the daffodils. | | |
| hmmm.
First entry in a long time.
I'll say it, but not too loudly...
(I'm not sure I like college.)
*shhhh* | | |
| You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there oh yes I will
You've got a friend ~James Taylor bleh. today was a bad day. I'm very angry. and I have a bad papercut. and I'm really not liking my P&P essay so far. grrsdoetiwlkfgdsflkgeori | | |
| Many times I’ve been alone and many times I’ve cried,
Anyway you’ll never know the many ways I’ve tried, but
Still they lead me back to the long and winding road,
You left me standing here a long, long time ago.
Don’t leave me waiting here, lead me to your door. ~The Beatles hmmm. I guess it's time for an update. My week in two categories: THE GOOD THINGS ~the two chamber jobs ~Holiday Classics ~finally getting a trivia question in calc ~the party in English THE BAD THINGS ~being attacked by my desk in calc ~the calc test ~staying up til 1 am finishing my bio ornament ~getting the music for Superman in orchestra I am so excited for the caroling party tomorrow, even though I still can't sing the harmony...still better than last year when I lost my voice. In other news, I got into Twin Cities. The sad thing is I really don't care where I go to college, I just want to decide. I hate the waiting. I can't think of anything else to write. Happy B-day Jane Austen. <3ferd | | |
| Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. ~Pink Floyd I don't know how to say it. I don't really know what it is. but it's gone. and I have to deal with the changes. | | |
