How Lucky We Are
One day we'll get outta this shitty apartment
One day is all it takes for things to turn around
Now all I know is I got you and you got me, babe
And when that morning comes
I'll make coffee and you'll read the paper
We'll talk about our plans
And I'll keep saying how lucky we are
Today I stayed afterschool to help with the poster selections in Mr. Hoague's class and then called Andrew to hang out. We went to Sinbala and had shaved ice and potato cakes. We went to pick his mom up from work and then admired the wide selection of halloween costumes for slutty 10 year olds at CVS while she bought some goodies. I feel like the rest of the night wasn't interesting enough to recall, but I bought good pens at Office Depot for doodling and it made me happy. These are the kinds of days I look forward to when I wake up in the morning. You know what I've been thinking about lately? It's so weird how we can be consumed by an emotion and once the feeling passes, it's almost as if it never happened. The moment subsides and yeah, you may feel sad or angry or happy when you think about it, but never in the same way. I've been feeling rushed lately. It's only the beginning of the second month of school and it already feels like everything is moving so quickly. I just want to sit and soak everything in for one second. I remember how differently I felt last year and how badly I wanted to get out of high school, but when I think about it now--what am I rushing to get to anyway? If I rush through all this when it's over, then what?
