The only rule? List ten things that recently made you happy.

1. Long phone conversations.
2. Understanding (fully) Beowulf the second time I read it (no need for a third, yay).
3. Saturday night – the entire time.
4. Doing well on the first biology quiz of the term.
5. Making it to all my classes on time (thus far).
6. Deciding to increase the number of hours spent volunteering per week (from 1 to 2, not so much of an increase, but it’s enough that I feel like I’m doing more there).
7. Last Thursday’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy.
8. The timeslot for Private Practice was changed from Wednesday to Thursday.
9. Having my laptop with me during my 4.5 hour break between the end of my ‘lab’ to my first class (9:30am-2pm)
10. Getting really cute text messages, even though it was around 4:30am when I got them.
