In Spiritui Procastinator
In the spirit of procrastination, positivity and crappy Latin, I'm going to list 10 things that currently make me happy:
1. Beautiful music. I'm talking old favourites, new favourites and the hopes that I'll discover some more soon.
Here are some of the songs flying around my head lately:
Raindrops - Regina Spektor
All I Want - Joni Mitchell
Seed 2.0 - The Roots
Circles - Soul Coughing
The Next Ten Minutes - Jason Robert Brown
Calculation Theme - Metric
Galang - MIA
The Only Answer - Mike Doughty
One Beat - Sleater-Kinney
Noisy Summer - The Raveonettes
2. When things work out as planned, or in a humourous variation. For instance, the first snow was today, and it was similar to the way I had described it in a previous entry, only I was with Andrew and Trystan and walking out of the Oratory and I got a few flakes right IN my eye, instead of delicately in my eyelashes. But hey.
3. Steps, bases and taking my time. Nothing is more rewarding than what you have to wait for.
4. The fact that as of Saturday evening, I'll have a little downtime. Maybe I'll finaly do some of the fun things I have been itching to do since I got here.
5. Snacking and drinking from a martini glass. It makes me feel like a classy lady, even if it's only cherry tomatoes or diet coke.
6. Getting cozy in bed in my nightgown/horrendously oversized and monk-looking sweatshirt, even if it's just to do work.
7. The huge gaps of time between my exams in December which will allow for lots of festive fun and frollicing.
8. All of my loving friends and each barrier we break down in the hopes of getting closer to each other.
9. The fact that the semester is officially half over.
10. The little feeling I get everywhere I walk, knowing that someone might be just around the corner to catch me off guard and make my stomach do a little leap and that I'll have to try to keep from blushing in all of my flusteredness.
