Like a warm day in February that feels so tantalizingly, deliciously like spring, makes me feel nothing but love in my heart. Yes, cheesy I know.
Lingering and laughing over dinner with good friends makes meals taste better.
I have duty tonight which means I have to stay around in Silliman from 10pm to 3am. But I think I rather like it, with the window is open, the air smelling faintly of the dampness of growing things, and blasting Only Girl in the World and Mine with the bass on high.
Maybe it also has to do with the fact that I turned in a few applications today? Either way...now that I think about it, when I was focusing on my criteria, I almost failed. Versus this week, when I focused on being happy and only doing things that give me happiness, my quality of life increased a lot. I think I did tons better on my different criteria. Curiously, all that's really different is how the question is asked: does this help one of my goals versus will I feel happy doing this? Perhaps the lesson here is that instead of trying to reach goals that we think will help us be happy, we should just ask ourselves before we do something whether it will bring us happiness. Sometimes, this can be along the lines of, will doing this problem set or not doing this problem set make me feel happy or unhappy? Haha, and almost always, I'm finding that the answer is yes, it will make me happy to get this pset under my belt, and yes I will be very unhappy rushing it at the very end.
