Blah to Hurrah!

So today has just been a good day.  Lately I have been feeling out of it and just ready to be done with school and homework and the cold.  Just kinda blah.  That's a good word to describe it.  BUT!  Today was pretty fantastic.  And it wasn't like any big thing or anything; just the simple things in life.  Mostly, music.  I had time, the first time in a long while, to just sit at a piano and play.  It is so relaxing and enjoyable to play things that you love and work on a difficult piece--especially one that you want to work on.  Music has a way of calming the nerves and washing away the worries of life.  Also, I went swing dancing; again, the first time in a long while.  It was a much needed break and something to get the blood pumping again after studying.  Plus, swing music is just plain awesome.  After swing dancing I walked home in the snow, which is just gorgeous!  Even though it's a little cold, I ended up taking the long way home because I wanted to stay out in the snow just a little longer.  It was a pretty snow too.  Not hard and blowing right into your face, but like someone is just sprinkling it down  on you just enough to catch them on your tongue and everything was coated as not many people were out and about to walk on it.  After today I can make it to the end of the semester.  Seven more weeks!  Bring it on world!
