Refreshed.

I’m feeling abnormally exuberant lately. Maybe it’s because one of my best friends is back in town for the summer. Or maybe it’s just the optimistic vision that everything will fall into place and work out as it should. Personally, I think it’s a combination of both.

I’m not sure why I just felt reflective and wanted to express my thoughts before bed, although it’s already pretty late and I need to wake up early. I’ll probably regret this decision in the morning. I’ve listened to this same song 3 times in a row now—Falling Away by Hugh Wilson. Scratch that, 4 times (I just hit repeat). :]

I feel so motivated and inspired by certain people I’m around. It’s just so refreshing, and their company makes my day that much brighter. I think it’s people like that who are needed in some lives, it’s just like the same feeling of getting a little umbrella in your drink, or noticing that someone has put more money in your parking meter. I know these comparisons seem silly, but the feeling is familiar to those situations for me. It’s just nice.

I suppose I should sleep now. I think these sudden urges to be reflective are nice to be able to write (well, type) down. It’s much nicer and more convinient than a diary. Although, I’m considering to start using a diary for a few reasons. 1.) I’m not sure how many (if any) people read this, let alone people I may or may not know. 2.) I’m not sure if I’d like my thoughts to be so publicly displayed, although that’s the price I’m paying for using an internet website, and 3.) I think it’d be nice to have something not technological for once. Something real, that I can hold, and touch, and look back on from time to time and see what was going through my head rather than just looking it up on the web like everything else.

Technology is beginning to scare me a little bit. I can’t even go to any bathroom anymore without everything activating by my touch or motion sensor. Before you know it there will be machines to drive for us or even worse, machines to feed us! The horror.
