Feeling good about everything today. Tired (really tired) and kinda mellow but good. I finished the application for the big award my prof nominated me for... now I just have to get it in. It's due tomorrow, so I'll drop it off at campus mail tonight on the way to class, and then it's out of my hands. I probably should be doing other work right now... the afternoon is really dragging by. I'm sure somewhere there's a job that I ought to be applying for. :) And yet here I am. Ah well. As soon as I post this I will go back to the job-hunting.

Yesterday was an awesome day. Just awesome. Stayed up way too late though. ;) Gotta go to bed earlier tonight! But anyhow, another fine day of invigorating conversation. I have a new favorite song too, at least, a new song-of-the-moment: Things I'll Never Say by Avril Lavigne. (I love Avril Lavigne!) The song completely describes the way I feel right now. I love finding songs like that. I'll probably listen to it constantly for the next two weeks. Well, except for the next two days. We are going to a Tori Amos concert on Thursday so I have to get some of her music and listen to it constantly for the next two days so I'll know something when I get there. :)

Four weeks today. One whole month. I can't believe how fast it's flown. I'm so happy with the way things are right now. I'm looking forward to Thursday (the concert!), and Friday (chocolate malts and Chicago!), and Saturday (going home!) and Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday of next week (you all better know what that is!). And I'm looking forward to getting back here, freshly tanned, relaxed, and ready to officially start a new chapter in my life. Two weeks from now is the six-week point, and I finally feel confident about what's going to happen when I reach it.

There are so many things I wish I could say here that I can't, because I know who reads this blog. There are so many emotions I'm feeling down in the depths of my heart. I feel like I'm walking on air. I feel like I could explode, and go everywhere at once. I feel like I could fly if I wanted to. I think the mellowness of my mood right now is mostly caused by the fact that I don't have anyone to share it with. No one to be excited with me and for me (ok, well yeah there is that one particular person, but it so happens that he is not here right now). :) And that's okay, because everyone has their own lives to worry about at the moment. I shared my joy with God and that was something. :)

I'm feeling inspired. Maybe I'll try writing poetry. Haven't done that in almost a year. :)

Love you all. May you all be as blessed as I am.
