Waking up happy

I woke up yesterday and the first thing I thought of was. "I have nothing to be upset about. Nothing to dread, nothing to be angry about, nothing to be afraid of." That is a fantastic kind of happy. I suggest everyone wake up like this as often as possible. On the other hand though, I do not want to wake up this way everyday. Too much satisfaction will only bore you. Freddie Mercury actually once sang that too much love will kill you, just as sure as none at all.

I love being in three classes. I love not having to get up super early everyday. I love working desk shifts at night and having my weekend nights free. I love getting up early only on Wednesdays to see my favourite kids and I love having two houses to rely on for very different reasons.

But like Freddie says, it cannot last and of course it shouldn't. Come January, my favourite children are moving away for a year, I might have to start job hunting, and of course snow will be here sans the Christmas anticipation. When you're a student you're life seems to revolve around your school schedule and every comfortable cycle is broken every three months. It's frustrating and refreshing all at the same time. It's nice to be able to rely on change. I suppose it's better than the kind of unexpected change that throws you off guard.

I guess I just hope there is at least one single morning in January where I can wake up and feel like I did yesterday, that's all.

Also, HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY LISA MARIE MACKINNON. I would not have made it through the crazy last three years of my life without you. They have been the most insane so far, probably for both of us, and I honestly cannot imagine what it would have been like without you to go insane with.

Much love
