On a Day Like Today

I woke up this morning and did not feel like going to school AT ALL. When I woke up and thought about going to school, I just wanted to break down crying and sleep all day. I never imagined I'd be so stressed because I usually never feel stressed. I thought about faking sick and telling my mom I had a really bad headache. But I didn't want to lie anymore so I thought I should just tell her truthfully that I was so stressed that I felt like just crying and jumping off a cliff. But then I remembered my mom talking about responsibilities and how you should commit to things, etc. But I REALLY REALLY didn't want to go to school today. I had two tests , no breaks/enrichment, and boring classes I didn't want to deal with. I debated what I should do as I washed up. By the time I was done in the bathroom, I decided I should just go to school and just do it, just go through with it. But damn, what a waste of a day. So, even though I am falling away from God, I said a small prayer as I got dressed. I asked for a nice day with many many smiles and good grades on my tests. By some miracle I really hoped it would come true. So I got dressed, packed my backpack and went out the door to the last place I wanted to be.

And guess what? I'm here right now, finished with school. I LITERALLY horribly failed my AP Euro test (can't wait to hear what mom's gonna say about that...), did okay on my Spanish test, and all my classes were boring, just like I thought this morning. But you know what? I'm okay. It was bright and sunny but chilly and windy; it felt like it would rain but it didn't. I didn't fall asleep during math like I usually do (seriously 1:45PM, during 7th period/enrichment, is nap time everyday). I laughed a lot, smiled a lot, and actually lived today. My prayer may not have been answered completely but it wasn't so bad. Not bad at all. I'm not stressed, I'm not crying, I'm fine.

Out of Eden- "On a day like today"
It's days like this there's a lesson learned, when I get up on the wrong side of the world. It's easy to dwell on my situation instead of every good thing. But I know I've been blessed, I gotta say thank you and though there's stress, I'm still grateful. It's just a test, He's more than able to see me through on a day like today.
On a day like today, all has gone wrong and my life seems crazy. Gotta hold on, smile on my face, 'cause I know the sun's gonna shine my way. On a day like today, look up at the sky and know life's so amazing. And I know I will be okay 'cause I know the sun's gonna shine my way.
I know it wouldn't hurt to smile; it's not as bad as it could be. It'll work out in a while. On a day like today...

I love Danna & Angie (" the 'doosch bag' duo"), Connie, Vicky, Karthika, and Tim for making my day brighter. You didn't know, but it made a difference. ♥
