Perfect Ending To A Good Day

The past few weeks haven't been kind to me, with all the schoolwork I've had, and all these health issues arising, but today, was the best day I've had in awhile.  I got to hang out with all of my close friend's left here in Boston, and have dinner with them in Chinatown.  It only lasted a few hours, and I didn't get to say as much as I would have liked, but any time is better than no time, and it was great to see them, especially one of my friend's in particular, since I was able to give her a late birthday present.  Life is always going to throw something difficult at you, but when you have days like today that end the way you want them to, it gives you hope for the future and life itself.  Hopefully, the rest of my break is this good, and I get to see the people I love again.  But till then, I'll keep doing what I need to do and hoping!

The "B" Day

We all have those days when we know we aren't on our "A" games.  Sometimes it's something that we even joke about.  But when those days happen, they usually always seem to come at the worst times, which was the case for me yesterday.  My day started off well, but left me with more questions than answers, which is a shame considering how great I felt.

The day started off in my CJ class, where my teacher loved me because I read the chapter and was vocal about it.  I read the assigned chapters all the time (usually more than once), but rarely participate because I'm introverted and the class has close to 100 people in it.  With a class size that big, you don't think you need to speak all the time.  But I felt like I did yesterday, since the other students didn't care, which made the teacher notice me.  Even though that was not my norm, I have to admit that felt good.  Transitioning from that, my Sociology class had the same results.  I usually always talk when we have group discussions, especially when I have to be the facilitator/leader, but yesterday, I was on a roll, contributing my own life stories, asking questions, etc.  It was all really wonderful, and had me pumped for my Spanish test I was going to take later, which was the thing I was nervous about all day.

Now, I was supposed to take this test last week, but with all the snow days and the fact my teacher became sick, it got pushed back.  Usually I jump for joy when something being pushed back, but tests are different.  When I have more time, that usually makes me more anxious.  And since I was so busy, I didn't study as much as I should have.  Even when I did study though, when it came to the test, I froze; I forgot vocabulary words and even forgot the most basic grammar, which was disappointing to me because the test was very straightforward, and 9 times out of 10, I know I'd do better.  But I was the last person finished, and when I handed in my test, I knew I didn't do as well as I should of. I didn't fail, but I didn't ace it, which is what I wanted.  I could be wrong, but I won't know until it's graded.

That was my day yesterday.  In a lot of ways, not much happened, but at the same time, a lot did with everything being out of the ordinary for me.  Considering how good I felt, I wish the results carried over to my test, but I guess I wasn't on my "A" game as much as I thought I was.  I was just at a "C" or a "B", which is what I think I usually am anyways when it comes to school since I always have to try harder.  As I said before, I could be wrong and do better on the test than I thought, but regardless of what grade I get, I know I need to do better and put this day behind me, cause tomorrow, I have another test, which definitely needs me to be on my "A" game.

Unproductive Day

Being a busy person (like everyone else in the world), I understand that some days I have my "A" game and other days I don't.  When I don't, I like to think that I'm still a little productive, but today, that wasn't the case.  Despite the fact I was up early, walked to the bank, ate food, and ordered textbooks for my upcoming semester, the day was still a waste for me since I slept for a majority of it.  And when I say majority, I mean half of it.  I suppose sleeping in isn't a terrible thing, especially because I usually never do, but since I only have one full week left of break, I want to experience it to the fullest, which I can't do if I'm sleeping.

Today was an unproductive day for me, but hopefully tomorrow is a better day.  

A Day To Remember!

Today, I had another great day for all reasons possible.  I ate some good Thai food and wings, which is always a plus; I went bowling (even though, it was hilariously terrible), went to Toys R Us, helped someone with work stuff, and hung out with friends for the day.  When you do stuff like this for a day, there's not really much to say.  One thing I know for sure is, I'll remember this day for a long time.

A Great Day!

Most people I know have great days often, but for me, they rarely happen, which is why when I have a day like today, which was great, I have to talk about it.  I know from the way I've built it up, you probably think I did amazing things, like win the lottery or meet someone famous, but neither happened.  It was actually a really chill day, and that's what was so great about it.  I hung out with my friend Phu, ate delicious food, bought some Yu-Gi-Oh cards, went to Dedham, and most importantly, caught up with him.  Like I said before, on the surface, it seems like I just had another hangout, but the older I get, I realize it will be harder to see my friend's, which is why I cherish days like today when we just spend time together.

Thanks for the day Phu!
