So last night was quite stressful, but I finished everything and was rather confident in my abilities for the test and lab. I woke up at 7:15 feeling and looking like hell. My throat hurt so much that I could barely speak, needless to say, it already look as though it would be a bad day and staying home wasn't an option because I didn't want to fall behind.
So anyways for all of first period I didn't talk because I thought it would help me feel better. We finished Shawshank today, it was so good, definitely one of my favourites! Second period I had the Calculus test which I surprisingly completed with ease and at third I had the lab where I also think I did really well. ALl the while, my throat started to feel a bit better and I was actually able to talk by lunch.
By this point all my stress had been vanquished because I was not assigned homework in Calculus or Chemistry (although I am still behind so I have to catch up) and I was assigned a reflection for Religion (I am also behind on handing in another reflection). So I was really relaxed and carefree, it felt great.
Oh yeah and I had a wisdom teeth check-up today as well so my mom picked me up at two o'clock and I she dropped me off back home at 3:30. Then my friend/neighbour asked me to check if their garage was closed so I had to walk down the street to see.
Okay so that was a huge lead up to what I actually want to get to, which is how I'm feeling; happy and carefree. Getting no homework (even though I'm still a bit behind) was really nice today, and the fact that I don't have school makes it even better; I don't have to wake up early and I am going out to lunch with my friends. The other thing that made me really happy was when I was outside.
I walk home from school everyday, and in walking home from my friends house I walked part of this route. Usually when I walk home, I think about all the homework I have, how little time I have to do it (because I usually get home at 5), how tired I am, and most recently, how cold it is. But today was different.
I didn't have my bag, so I could walk more "freely" without having to bear any extra weight. This also made me more aware of the fact that I didn't have to rush home and do work all night, but rather that I was free to do what I wanted for the first time in ages.
Not having a mind consumed with stress and work really allowed for my mind to wander, and I found myself looking around outside as I walked home. The sun was out, covering everything with a blanket of warmth, there was also a weak wind that ran through my hair as I walked, and I noticed that colour was beginning to return to the trees and grass. I couldn't help but feel happy, Spring is coming, and it is sure to be followed by a fun-filled summer. I know its a while away, but its days like these that really keep me going amidst all of the woes of school. Now if I could just get rid of my soar throat...
