My head cold optimism.

                     I woke up today with the feeling that it was going to be a good day. Despite my pounding, aching head and clogged up nasal passages, I was rearing to go. I started off by sending every single one of my contacts one of those really annoying, overly optimistic texts that went a little something like: "Today holds millions of opportunities out there just waiting for YOU to discover. I know you'll have a wonderful day." In which I didn't get any replies.. but, hey! That didn't damper my mood any. I felt like blogging about this because I haven't felt this great in a while. I haven't ever, I think, been this optimistic. I actually have faith in myself, like I can accomplish it all. It's just too bizarre that this mood manifested from a few sour, sorrowful days of sneezing, hacking, and body aches. All it took was a little bit of good ole vitamin C. Granted, I'm still coughing up my lungs and sneezing every five minutes.. but, I feel good. I don't feel tired, I just feel.. happy, a little fearful, but most of all, ecstatic. I'm ready to get my life going, to make something of myself and make my family proud.  Maybe my 87% on my timed writing in AP Language and my Key Club President calling me and asking me to run the concession stand during the game Friday helped this mood bloom. Whatever it is, I'm digging it. I'm making it a goal of mine to push myself even harder, so that I can continue to feel this way. I like feeling powerful and capable, not helpless and melancholic. I'm not going to let the fact that I have to stay after class until 9 tonight bother me. Come at me, world! Ha, okay. Enough of this. Until next time..

                                 And, no. It's definitely not the cold medicine.
