Around the bend...

[via]

Agreed :)

Since I woke up this morning I've been inexplicably excited.  My sister can bear witness to happy dances in the closet, short squeals, and hopping around for no apparent reason.

Yes, I'm tired... but it's not just that.  I was actually surprised at myself this morning.  It's been kind of a heavy week [mostly due to the large amounts of fiction I've imbibed :/ :) ].

But this morning I was overwhelmed with excitement at all the good things coming "around the bend" - small things, big things.  Every time I see "2013," it seems to translate as "opportunity."  It's all quite the adventure!

"I don't know what lies around the bend... but I'm going to believe that the best does."

So doesn't start back up for another 5 weeks, but its been on my mind lately. Partly because I'm not done registering =)
I'm registered for 3 classes so far: English Honors, The Novel, and Greek Tragedies. Side note: It's going to be a reading-heavy quarter with--no joke--20 required books (including 4 dense novels). But I am very excited. Those classes add up to a full load at 15 credits.
But... It just so happens that I'm about 3 credits to make up over the next 3 quarters. Soooo crazy that I'm entering my senior year, asking myself, "What do I want to take before I graduate?" I digress... I've been looking for an interesting class for 2 or 3 credits. I was registered for Greek Mythology. Interesting. In my minor. It would take care of all 3 credits.
On the downside, I had promised a dear friend of mine that we'd take that class together and, if I took this class, it would be my only class on Friday.
But today, I think I found a better option. It turns out that Intro to Music Theory is still open. Its a 2 credit course that only meets on monday and wednesday. So, I can fulfill my long-time dream of studying at least the basics of music and my fridays will be completely free! Happiness. Especially because some weekends I will be working saturday and sunday.
Looks like a win-win =)
