A Good Monday?

I'm not kidding. Today is good. Though, looking from the outside, it might not look that way. I had a math test, I've been doing math homework for the past hour and a half (I'm still not done), I have an anthropology assignment to finish, geology homework to submit, a health quiz to study for-- and today is still a good day!

I came home after my math test, my head was throbbing and lately I've been feeling like I'm going to get sick. This feeling is a lot worse than actually being sick since you don't know if it's actually a sickness and when you act sickly you can't use the excuse "I might be sick, but not at the moment." So, I have a lot of homework to get done, I'm exhausted (sleeping has been difficult for me lately), and I think I have work later. I try to figure out the order of events to determine the order of priorities. #1. Nap. That's how tired I was. But before I do this, I decide to call work to make sure I'm on the schedule. "Hey, Carmen." Hey, Allyson. Do I work today? "Nope, not today." Thank you, Allyson. Thank you, Jesus.

I run downstairs to tell my mom my happy news, "I can sleep for more than an hour!" And I left just as quickly as I had come and went to bed. An hour and a half of sleeping and the rest of the day to finish my pile of homework. The happiness I feel for not working outweighs the mound of books that would normally pain me.

So. I have a lot of homework, but I have the whole day to do it. It's just so great.


It is not good for me to be alone.
Carmen.
