Happy, happy, happy!

I feel very happy and fortunate right now. Life has turned 180 for me because it sucked this past week. I felt alone, lost, and overwhelmed by all the work I had. When I am alone, I start to generate many negative thoughts. But many happy things happened to boost my sense of self!

First of all, I received praise from both my art and creative writing professor on my work. I am not highly confident in either area, but it makes me happy that they like it. On Tuesday, a naked pregnant lady came in for drawing. In the beginning, I was like, "Oh my gosh, she's going to be naked naked naked." But it wasn't a big deal at all and I actually enjoyed it very much! I always feel like the short stories I write are crap, but Professor Powers always writes nice comments about each one! I don't know if she sincerely meant them, but I will believe what she writes! Haha.

Second of all, somebody told me today that he respects me! This comment was a casual remark made by someone I just met, but it sent me soaring through the heavens above earth toward cloud nine. I shouldn't have, but I got really excited about it. Excited enough to run to my friend's room across campus to do the happy dance and tell her all about it! Maybe I got excited because 1) He resembles one of my favorite actors and 2) I really respect him as well. He is a very easy person to talk to, which also makes me very happy. There are just some people that are much easier to approach and it feels great to meet people I can easily converse with. It doesn't happen too often!

Someone else has also recently told me that he respects me. However, I did not get as excited about this. Perhaps it is because I feel that this is undeserved respect. I was really surprised because this person constantly bothers me online, but never actually talks to me when he sees me. My friends tell me that he does not approach me because he is shy. He should not be intimidated by me! It is because he doesn't know me that he probably formed the wrong impression of me! Haha.

Third, a close friend told me last night that I am an awesome person to talk to and another friend said the same thing tonight!

And last but not least...my crush came to taiko practice tonight and shared a drum with me! He is seriously the best looking guy and the best dresser I've ever seen in my entire life. He is more attractive than all of the boys in Hawaii. He is more attractive than all of the boys I've seen in school here. He's plain HOT.

Although it was his first time playing, he is very good and had powerful strikes! I hope he comes again and again! I will never miss a single taiko practice this semester!

I am so happy! ヾ(^▽^)ノ

Kayla says I should direct all this happy energy I have toward studying for my economics exam on Friday, but you can see that I got distracted by blogging instead. XP

But I will ACE that exam!
