So I felt sort of so-so today for the most part- probably just a bit overwhelmed with everything going on in this crazy land we call CSP. I decided that to brighten my day, I'd try to brighten someone else's. I sent Erica some flowers today, just for being her. She's been incredibly supportive of me and my wild antics over the past 4 1/2 years, and I hope I never become complacent or ungrateful for all that she does for me. I wanted to send her a pleasant smelling and visually appealing reminder of my appreciation, and well, given that I'm 5 hours away from her, it came in the form of a floral arrangement. It made her day, so it of course made mine.
Besides that, I turned in my resume for a job today that I am increasingly more excited about at Miami-Hamilton. Keep your fingers crossed. I feel as though I really connect with students there, which I would have never guessed from the outset of my experience there. Their student body is comprised of a great deal of diversity, which I can certainly appreciate. Plus, you'd be hard pressed to spend more than $5 in their cafeteria, which is a major bonus of being there.
I've definitely learned from my recent hiatus from my everyday reality while away at conferences that music is a major part of my life. I was deprived of music most of our journey, which I never thought would be such a problem. Music puts me at ease, helps me escape troubling thoughts, challenges me to think of things in new ways, or just takes me back to a place in time that I can't help but miss. Plus, how can one not be in a good mood when hearing Biggie Smalls? (I told you this thing was going to be pretty profound).
Well, chalk up another day that I can't seem to link any sort of complex or entirely meaning thoughts together. Nonetheless, in the words of a very famous author, "I gotta say, today was a good day."
