| The other day I was trying to take out my contacts, and stabbed myself
in the eye quite a few times before my brain turned on and I remembered
I was supposed to be putting my contacts *in*.
Did I mention I'm not a morning person?

| Heh yeah, I've completely neglected my xanga these past few months ("abandoned" my be a closer description).
The office has been complete chaos today. John and Jared were gone, Margie's in a meeting, Martha's coming in late, if at all, and Diane has left me too, so now I'm all alone. this would normally be a good thing, where I could lay back and relax, but up until this moment I've been swamped with every kind of hassle imaginable.
I finally get to pop open a Slimfast, which is a poor excuse for a meal, but at least fuels me with paltry calories until I get home. It wouldn't be so bad if only I had slept last night, but last night was fun, so I don't regret it. I was productive all day yesterday and got rewarded with some hanging outage. :)
I have everything good to go for putting a down payment on an room for the summer in Tokyo. That's good. Still need to double check with Rosita about her plans to decide on a move-in date, but I'm glad to have found a place to stay at all, much less one so close to work. So yeah, if anyone *else* wants to come to Tokyo this July or August, let me know. Hehe~ :P We're allowed three people to a room. Seriously, if not this year, then one of these times I'm going to have to drag my friends out with me so I don't get so lonely out there all summer.
*sigh* Im sooo glad that it has quieted down. Maybe now I might even be able to do the forbidden and pull out some homework. *simultaneous stress and relief*
Hehe, this entire entry sounds much more hectic and stressed and depressed than I actually feel. It's true that I have been busy, and my weekend left no spare time for me to refuel... but it's pleasant kind of crazy... so I'm cool. | | |
| 3:38am... crap, what am I doing?
I had a two day high which inevitably dropped back down to a low. Skipped my morning classes today to sleep.
I had songs from The Real Group in my head, and while looking for their amazing Swedish jazztasticness, stumbled upon some other groups as well. A vocal rendition of Debussy's Clair de Lune. Oh my. I think I might scatter into the air any moment and be lost forever. And not care.
4:22am... Have I really been listening to music that long?
Swedish "Silent Night" plays.
I want to be in choir again. I feel like a cup of tea and curling up with a book in a self-contained toe-tucked ball of comfort. With soft romantic voices like these crooning in the background. I would probably not be able to decide whether to read or listen to the music, and either way melt with a sigh of utter contentment.
My craving has been satisfied just by imagining it, don't you love it when that happens? I think I still might make the tea though.
4:41am... That sounds like a good idea. | | |
| Mel is absolutely BEAMING. Even when I try to reorient my face muscles, my lips twist and press together, and I try to suppress it, but it is a futile effort. All I can do is ride the wave.
Actually, I really don't smile much. It doesn't mean that I'm not happy, it's just that my usual face expression is kind of a sulky frown, or maybe a blank look at best. I dunno, that's just how my face rests. Smiling like this is always an active expression. I become aware of the new strain of those muscles and such.
But yes, why might Mel be beaming?
Mel had an amazing day yesterday. I hung out with Jason and Casper after school, and... I had an amazing day. I don't need to describe it, but when I came home that night after jogging, I practically bounded into my bedroom and decidedly pranced with glee. Sure, it could have just been leftover endorphins from the exercise... but this morning I was still riding the high, and simply GLOWED my way through Hellenistic Greek art. Yeah, all those tortured faces of death... you got nothing on MY good mood this morning.
I'm in the mood for a good twirl. I'll put that on my to-do list for today. "Have a good twirl".
Oh, won't anyone twirl with me?
Yaknow, that's the thing about being in a good mood... everyone always seems to resent you for it. It's so much easier for people to agree the life sucks or that all humanity is dooomed to eternal stupidity and such, but I wonder why it's so hard to rejoice together. We'll have a few laughs, based on the usual stereotypes, but there is no *rejoicing* together. I've started to really crave productive relationships where there can be mutual learning, and... it's the same old tune for me I suppose... If misery loves company, then what of pleasure?
Still... I can't stop grinning.
Mely GRINNETH
Poll of the moment: What do you find to be absolutely fascinating??

| Mel has a cell.
So now people can actually get ahold of me when I'm at school, or if it's late at night. :) I made sure to get one I can use in Japan too. Roaming might cost a little extra, but not as bad as the international fees.
That's it really...
Bye ^.~*
