A less metaphorical post
Help me out, guys, will you?
Ever felt this feeling…
when I get back from school after pulling an all-nighter the previous night, on a Sunday night, like a typical Korean…
where it feels like I am satisfied with all I need and everything that I’m doing
and there is this kind of awesome feeling sprinkled with sweets and spices~ …
I feel like jotting down and describing my thoughts, and gently expressing myself…
ANALYSIS from the perspective of the one who’s just experienced this:
I finished my Science Lab in the morning and at school, successfully handed it in to my teacher
While thinking about my next period class, Spanish, I was getting all stressed out cuz I thought we wouldn’t do anything interesting and the class would just be a pain in the butt and making my tired day more exhausting…
…but the class turned out quite enjoyable! Thank you so much, Ms. S~! Well, everything was quite happy except for my constant need to get up for tissue and blow substances out of my nose…! I got through math, which was annoying the heck out of me.
And, of course, lunch was just spectacular cuz it reminded of my sick (as in having a cold) appetite. It was so great to talk to many people I had the honor of talking to today~!
After school, I and two of my colleagues in music rehearsed the clarinet quintet for the first time! That, plus sitting at front desk in orchestra rehearsal gave me a very rewarding feeling~~!
Events that can happen just during one day can add up to make your day. That was the case of mine. But to also touch on the underlying mood of the character, I felt rather jubilant and energetic today, especially during math… this is always the case the day after an all-nighter – quite ironic, but it was something I’d discovered about myself some ages ago.
However, once you continue those nights for more than two or three times, the fine line is crossed and the body suffers its toll exponentially.
Isn’t it just SO fascinating… how
life acts in different ways by juggling its googolplex number of possibilities and uncertainties to produce what it has to offer to us every day?
NO, certainly not when it’s dawning on you like a nightmare or a horror movie…
but just take the time to let it sink in… Think about a day where things just felt like they’re coming into place to complete some kind of undefined, superimposed puzzle. It’s so comforting… satisfying… and pleasant~… yet at the same time, we know that success and hope will only follow when we give it all we’ve got, give it our best shot, into our dreams and goals. Cuz, think about it, what more do they expect?
And yet again, we know we can make it, someday.
