Taking pleasure in the simple things

You know that sometimes you just have down days, or hours or something, when, for no apparent reason everything seems awful? Even though a short time earlier all was well? Well, last night was one of those. A combination of the impending doom (exams for which I don't really feel prepared, and, to male matters worse, the first of which is on my birthday- grr!), unsuccessful attempts to justify to myself the reasons for putting myself through all this (job hunting, not for now, but just to see if I might actually get one eventually...) and having to share the flat again (flatmate back from hols and taking over again!) after I'd been used to having it to myself for a bit, wasn't a good formula for upbeat and cheeryness!!!

Anyway, the point of this wasn't to moan (no matter how much it seems like it!). After all of last nights difficulties and so on, I walked out of the flat this morning and just soared! Not literally. The sun is shining, the sky is blue with a few light cirrus floating by, and the strong winds forecast are making themselves felt (walking through the park among leaves and branches strewn around- it feels like autumn again!). In short, its a glorious day. And even the thought of having to spend it in the library can't dampen my mood. With my favourite music in my CD player (yes, that always helps, if you're me!), I almost bounced into uni! The sun is streaming in the window, and I can't see the sea for the glare! So, for once I am starting this morning feeling good, and who knows, it may even help the revision?

Have a good one everyone x
