Simple Joys

I think I'm going to try to blog about something semi-meaningful everyday at least for this week just to see what it's like and see if it's actually worth it.  Am I actually talking about meaningful things or not?  That is the question.

Today I was reminded of many little joys.  One being cleanliness.  I am a dirty person.  Not in terms of my body that much, but in terms of my room.  It's normally filthy, although today I cleaned it and I have to admit it looks nice.  Yes it can look nicer, but it is a good step one in my opinion.  It makes my room feel so much more welcoming and peaceful.  I think there are times when I definitely enjoy working out in the living room, but sometimes I need my room.  For example if people come over, and I need to work, there is no reason for me to get that annoyed when I can just go to my room.  But if my room is too dirty to go into... that sounds like a problem. Haha.  So ideally.... I can keep my room at least semi-clean and organized.

I also did dishes for the first time in a long time.  I got into this bad habit of expecting others to do it, or even just putting it off until it was unbearable (aka a huge, ginormous pile).  But I realized, that seeing a clean sink is a very nice feeling.  It just gives a sense of well being, although if only this pollen would hurry up and stop so I could actually feel well.

Another small joy today was hanging out with people.  I've noticed how I basically don't hang out, at all.  I skip wahooru's every week because I have work due by midnight, and somehow I'm so busy during Friday that I can't do it earlier.  Granted sometimes I am, but normally I just waste time somehow.  So seeing people besides my roommates and the typical Clarke Ct. crowd was nice.  I think because I've been spending so much time by myself, I have been promoting rather emo tendencies.  Of course I do need to analyze myself and  such, but I also need to have fun.  Or at least... I should work harder if I'm gonna be by myself.  But I often forget that it's fun to hang out with people, even if it is annoying at times.

I think this is good for the second day in a row.  Lessons learned: cleaning isn't fun, but being around cleanliness is, and people are fun.  Not that I thought people weren't fun... just... I dunno lol. Anyways...that is all.
