I have been putting a lot of thought in to why I have been so happy as of late. What has changed in my life that I am finally feeling at peace with my self? I think its a combination of things.. but either way, I am rather enjoying it!
I have gotten my self into a schedule. Which may sound lame.. but its obviously something I needed. I get to bed at reasonable ( early) times when I don't have class till 10. This is key. I am not a person who can get 6 hours of sleep and be good to go. no.. I need at least 8, 10 ideally.
Well, that means a whole lot my planning on my part to make it work. I need that sleep.. so I can't be up late doing last minute homework. I must plan to get it all done in time. But so far, its working.
I've also tried to start eating a bit better. I try and cook during the weekend to have meals for the rest of the week. This way I'm not eating random crap on my really rough days. Probably not as big a deal.. but its kind of nice all the same. Sort of works in with my new plan everything scheme.
I am pretty happy at work. Happier then I have been. And I get to train dolphins. can't complain much there now can ya?
I have been thinking about this last one the last few days. And as hard as it has been for me some times, I really think this job has brought out the best in me. It has forced me to be a little more open, and outgoing. I don't feel like such a shy recluse any more. I think that might have a lot to do with my feeling better inside my own skin bit. I have a new found confidence in my self. I greatly attribute that to my work, and the people I work with.
What ever it is.. I like it. Thats the bottom line. I feel like my self.. but more then that, a better version of my self. Maybe I've finally grown in to my own skin, and i'm comfortable with it.
On some side notes... Had a rather brilliant morning. Wakeing up was hard..as it usually is.. but so worth it. Hung out with Jordan before he took off to London and NYC for two weeks. I'm overly jealous. But had a great time talking to him. There a some people who you can click with, and talk to for hours about the weirdest shit. Jordan is one of those people. I dont feel like I am struggling for conversation topics. well.. and he has fantastic eyes which I could watch for ever. So there is that too. He is planning to come hang out with my in SC more after he returns. I really really hope so...
