Dumbstruck

I don't know how it got so nice out today, but it never needs to change.

Knowing your time at a college is limited is strangely liberating. Today I woke up, wandered outside with a cup of java, and decided I wasn't going to class today. I have more fun things to do and the weather's too nice to spend the day in a lecture hall. I went to school to scout out the drop site for the egg drop Wednesday; that's the last real thing I have to do while I'm in engineering. I drove to Newport and wandered into Hot Topic as it was opening to buy some new gewgaws for my ear; they were too expensive for me to get them now. I went to the library. I wandered around outside for a bit and threw open every window in the house.

I did nothing I was supposed to do and enjoyed my day off and couldn't be happier. This is honestly the happiest I've been since I realized I wasn't going to be an engineer. The funk is finally over, guys. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with my life. It should be a little easier with some fresh optimism on my side. February may have been cursed, but March is a new month and a new chance to start over and actually make something of myself.
