I wake up to the sound of the ocean. I open my eyes and I am surrounded by white.
I roll onto my side and I can see the sun barely peeking over the waves. It is morning, and colors are thrown across the ocean and through the sky.
I step down onto hardwood floor. Barefoot. I make my way outside. A breeze gently caresses my face as I glide toward the waves.
My family is sleeping in our home as I welcome the early morning.
I have forgotten the meaning of stress, pain, worry.
I know only peace. I know only joy.

One BIG Mistake
But I still got a 96% on my Physics exam.
On the exam I had just finished spending an hour on figuring out one problem, and there were only three questions left. I was really pooped out.
So. I ended up making a very stupid error on one problem and decided that physics didn't matter---I'd just use proportions and plain old math.
BIG mistake.
I missed 5 points because I didn't use physics to find the answer... I got a relatively reasonable answer... just not the right one.
I did everything else perfectly. So I ended up getting a 96% instead of a 100%.
Sigh. At least it taught me a lesson. Next exam, I will be much more careful about using principles that I learned in class to solve the problems that are presented.

Plugged In
I know I haven't written anything recently. I've been incredibly busy with a lot of things. Some of which have not been as "best" as others. Haha. Although I am trying to do better with spending more time studying and less time being social. What can I say? I usually like people.
I say usually because sometimes I can be very anti-social-seeming. The other day at Family Home Evening I was "plugged in" the whole time (as Emma called it--I had my headphones in, listening to music) because I was a little tired and irritable and didn't want to offend anyone by being short with them without having a "good" excuse. Being plugged in seems like a good excuse to me! When I'm plugged in I don't have to reply to anything anyone says in a group conversation because I don't hear what they say. Hahahaha.
Anyways, just writing to let everyone (whoever it is that actually reads this...) know that I do still exist! Just a little busy.
