- Your in your home and to add to the ambience, you decide that you want to light your pumpkin candle. Though the wick is near the bottom of the candle jar, you go for it anyways as you have done it before. Well, turns out, you get burned from the fire leaving the lighter.
- At about 7:00 AM, your morning routine begins: shower, blow-dry hair, paint your face, drink some coffee, walk around naked (because why not?), get dressed, and do last minute homework. Well, this day in particular, you change your routine. Everything is essentially the same, except you decide to curl your hair just for the heck of it. You know--feel good, perform well! The hot iron has done a terrific job already, and you are finishing up the last curl. All of a sudden, you feel the curling iron slip from your hand. Instinctively, you reach for it before it shatters to the ground. News flash: it's fucking hot.
- It's cold and soggy outside. And just cold inside. It's nearing 10:00 PM and you help close down the office. You go to unplug the only source of warmth in the room: the space-heater. Instantly, you feel a current begin to run from your finger to your head. After realizing that you just electrocuted yourself, you just shriek and everything in you feels tingly.
- The sun has finally come out amongst the rain. Dew is covering the grass and water stains the pavement. The water sticks to the bottom of your shoes, much like gum would. Music is playing through your headphones on the way to class but you are still able to hear the slosh slosh slosh of your shoes through puddles. You leave the outside world and enter an academic building. A crowd of individuals is behind you as you listen to Blank Space in Spanish. Then, one leg goes out from underneath you and undoubtedly, shear panic covers your face. Arms flail through the air. You are now on the ground. You go to recover from this mortifying fall. One leg at a time. First leg is up, you are crouched and begin to lift the other leg. Then all of a sudden, you are back on the floor. You look behind you, and people are trying so hard not to laugh. An individual, whom you thankfully know, comes to your rescue and walks it off with you, while you both laugh at the images running through your minds from the past five minutes.
I'd like to think that I have freewill, but nope. I don't even have that. I mean, yes, in the sense of being able to have choices and make decisions. Plot twist: Because He knows my heart and mind and life better than I even do, He knows the decisions I'll make! So, am I really making those decisions? Just some food for thought.
ANYWAYS, things overall are going well. I'm in a good place. I'm definitely checked out of school. Graduation is just a few short weeks away. I don't care about homework at all. C'S GET DEGREES. But why sacrifice everything I've worked so hard for over the years? Then come graduation, Christmas will be here and then I'll leave for Nicaragua! So many things to look forward to in addition to Adele's new album on Friday and it being acceptable for me to listen to Christmas music net week. But also, so many things to be financially stressed about. Okay. Mostly just the idea of having to pay back student loans pretty immediately. We'll see what happens.
Much love.
