I knew today was going to be a hectic day. I woke up and groaned. Fridays are such crazy days for me right now; I go from one activity to the next with hardly a break in between to catch my breath. Today has been such a lovely day in some respects though. On days like these there is so much going on that it feels like several days rolled into one. For the most part, I did well in my various classes and other activities. On my way to French I coached myself, telling myself, "You can does thism take each thing one step at a time, don't worry about the next thing until it comes up." That really helped me focus and stay calm troughout the day.I just came home from another Friday night football game. This one was not terrible or teary-eyed though, in fact I had a blast. I wish last week’s had gone as happily as this week’s. I was tired and a bit un-energized at times, but surprisingly, I ended up having a wonderful time and drinking delicious hot chocolate.
It was cold. Not that biting, ice-edged cold though. It was a calm, curious type of coldness that crept through the three layers I was wearing. It pretended it wasn't there, except for odd moments when it would pinch my skin between its malicious fingers and laugh at me. Now that's personification for you. You see, cold really doesn't have fingers, or even a voice with which to laugh, but by describing it as a person you found yourself wondering, "What is she talking about?"
I'm a little incoherent right now, since I'm so tired and really should be snuggled under the covers sleeping in till 9am. However, I just had to write something. I wish I could write in here at school somehow. Like I mentioned earlier, these long days drag on into more than just one day and I feel like I want to get the events out on to the screen before they disappear.
I was pleasantly surprised by a message from Leslie Irene from Rare Silk today. I've been given an award for my diary! Never would I have thought that this humble little place of my inner ramblings would be worth anything to anyone else. I shall display the lovely award as soon as I have time to upload it to my server. I recommend everyone visit Rare Silk, whether you desire a review or not. It's nice to feel appreciated and cared about, especially when I had no idea I had made an impact.
Well I must fly my dearest, it's time to wrap myself up in warm covers and hibernate till morning.
