life is full of beautiful contradictions

seemingly insignificant things that make me significantly upset:
-"chill out"/"relax"/"calm down"
-the horrendous noise of the girls' bathroom door at Radina's
-"you shouldn't feel that way." ("I will tell you what is appropriate to feel")
-people assuming that everyone from a large city is high maintenance
-Bear Grylls
-people tuning out the sound of my voice
-people editing my papers and crossing out what is CORRECT grammar to replace with INCORRECT grammar


seemingly insignificant things that make me significantly happy:
-finding grammatical errors in textbooks
-the fact that I create some wicked awesome Pandora stations
-cookbooks
-balancing my bank account to find out that the math TOTALLY ADDS UP CORRECTLY
-coffee that gets room temperature and is still delicious
-feeling needed
-when I unplug my laptop and it gives me a good 5 minutes before turning off completely (rare. but mind-numbingly beautiful.)


amen.
