Beautiful Beat

I didn't have work today because it's the end of the trimester for the highschoolers so I had a day off. I was planning on getting up early and working out and then coming up to campus and studying my guts out. That was the plan anyway. I ended up waking up around 11:30 a.m. I had missed a call from the geek squad at best buy saying my camera was ready to pick up. I went there and waited in line for like half an hour just so I could sign a paper and take me camera. whatever. Then I drove up to campus not quite as gung ho (Is that how you even spell that?) to do homework as I had planned on being. But as I parked my car and started walking up to campus I was listening to Nada Surf on my ipod. The song Beautiful Beat was playing and for some reason i just thought, "dang, life is good!" Seriously though, maybe it was the weather or the song or just everything shmooshed together but it just hit me that I have things SO good. For the past little while I've found a lot of things to get upset or down about and that's just lame. There are so many things to be happy about. I think that just loving life for what it is is so important and something I need to remind myself of constantly.
