When I sum up all that makes me happy –
The color purple
Korean food
Teddy bears
White roses
A beautiful novel
Hope in humanity
Unity among men
Shared joy and laughter
My family
My true friends
My love –
The sun shines a little brighter
The air feels a little warmer
And I smile a lot wider.

It’s nearly 1am and I’m still up…
The weekend is sadly coming to an end and my 8-hours + naps and 11-hours sleeping sessions this weekend has caused me to forget normal hours, like the fact I must be awake in about 5 hours to mark essays and teach classes… <sigh> Why must the real world get in the way?? π
The weekends are definitely the best part of my life right now. Between Margarita Thursdays and afternoons on the beach, what’s not to love about the weekend? Despite my current stress and missing loved ones who are far away, I have to say on the positive side that I’m totally in love and happy these days with the man in my life. He’s … amazing. Every day I think how lucky I am and how much he makes me smile, laugh and love.
So, sadly real-world stuff brings the weekend joy to an end, but soon it will all be over and after a couple weeks of intense work (I hope!) on my dissertation proposal, etc. The summer holidays will be here and joy will be a full-time feeling!!!
Until next time,
-T
