alone.

I'm in the midst of finals and yet here I am blogging. Figures. I've been in my cubbie hole hiding from the world because I need a time out. I've dedicated my time and heart into something that disappointed me. Now I'm trying to focus on what's good for my life and happiness. Reading Hayley's blog always puts a smile on my face because her music and spirit just livens and inspires me to be more. It's funny...simple things make me happy. Reading inspiring blogs, the sound of acoustic guitars and piano, cafes, rain, punk music, cliffs, laughing, & french vanilla lattes make me joyous. At the same time this all takes place with me being in solitude. I need to remember to incorporate those simple yet happy elements in my life daily. My plan for the rest of the year is to dominate my science courses and the TEAS to get what I want out of my career. I didn't know how to do this before but now I can humbly say I'm learning how to enjoy the journey on the way to my destined goal. I still need to work on loosening the grip of my fingers from control. Day by day. Week by week. Smile by happiness.

Sometimes I stop to think, "Wow, so this is what it's like to be happy."
