College Crunch

Starting up the day off in a very nice mood is always so gratifying.

Despite I'm only going on 2 hours of sleep, I am in such a good mood.

I'm believing its due to the fact I had a good day yesterday plus for the very first time since I gotten my wisdom teeth taken out friday I'm no long in agony.

Yesterday in one of my classes we fortunately had visiting artist Chris Scarborough available and talk.

I always appreciate listening the procedure other artists take on there journey of existing as an artist; it truly is so good to hear the good and the bad and not have people becoming entirely negative or even the opposite by glorifying everything and makign is appear so easy and wonderful. I only wishwe could have had a lot more than an hour to spend with him since I'd been really enjoying the discussion.

Soon after I left that class I headed right up to my water Aerobics class where it was my teams turn to do our synchronized swimming program.

I was excited because it definitely went very good. Other then a particular classmate not being able to perform with us due to the fact he failed to show up to some of the practices and came in right as class started, wanting us to “make it clear” to him what he had to do.

Almost always have to have a little bit drama! I don't know what is going on with the air, water, atmosphere, or whatever these days but I seem to be in a permanently fantastic mood and I am experiencing a lot more wonderful days than bad. I think that is awesome!!

I wonder when the other shoe is going to drop but I do think I am about to quit that. I think even that's mostly about frame of mind - I possibly could be bummed for example that my IT band practically fell off on Sunday, however I choose to not My goal is to have a very quiet saturday and sunday since most people I am close to is in the mountains these days, which I always appreciate.

I do have some entertaining social plans though, for example a lengthy jog with one of my favorite running partners on Sunday morning.

We are jogging in Boulder, and I enjoy Boulder, so i can not wait!! On the other hand, the weather condition does not look amazing for tomorrow, as long as it isn't raining or have a lot of thunder I believe I'll - watch for it.
