Well normally this wouldn't be noteworthy, but to be frank i feel that this was by far and away the best week in my life.
Basically it started out pretty generically, i was bored stiff at school and not really doing anything when i got in. Until Wednesday morning (when for the first time in what seemed like ever the sun was bright enough for me to wear sunglasses). I woke up in such a good mood (i believe with a strange mixure of Tubthumping and Baba O Reily stuck in my head) and wasn't tired at all. I got ready it record time and rode to school practically laughing my head off and being made all the more happy by the number of smiles i was getting from people i passed. By about half ten i realized something. This is how it feels to be in a good mood. I decided that nothing was going to get in my way.
I then went on to do something in science that i didn't think i'd ever get the chance to do - wire a plug. That was it, and not even my incredibly annoying English teacher managed to dampen my mood. So long story short, end of that day i walked home with my friends (for once, they live in the opposite direction to me) where four of us decided to hang (literally) for a bit in a nearby park. Here i confirmed something that taught me a valuable life lesson.
So Thursday came and i was still pretty perked up from the day before, but it was far more slower paced so i had a lot of time to reflect on what had happened, namely having a discussion with somebody that made me reevaluate my beliefs. By the time i met up with my friends it seemed that they had told some others about yesterday, so we proceed (in a larger group of about 8) to the same place and good times ensued, turns out meeting some angry drunks really makes you find out who your mates are.
I went back home with a smile on my face to which my parents asked me what i had been taking, something that made me laugh for ages before thoughtfully answering 'life'. They always go out for a pub quiz on Thursday nights which gave me yet more time to reflect, realizing that i might just have hit on some of the things that make life worth living. I spent some money on something i'd been holding out on for no reason for ages and was skipping everywhere. Even eating Jelly Babies gave me almost orgasmic pleasure. But everything was turned on its head when i learned of the death of somebody very important to me, i was forced to reevaluate everything i had learned yet again.
With the implications of this still raging inside my head Friday turned out to be another pretty generic day, making me realize that nothing lasts forever, but it held one last surprise for me. Late at night i stumbled across two songs that almost perfectly summed up my week and brought me to tears.
Saturday i was supposed to be cycling to the beach with some mates but it turns out that i'm not allowed to be organized at all and the only day i ever have something planned is the day that one of my relatives choose to come up for lunch, making me miss that by a few hours. But hey, you can't have everything. Lets see if i can top that.
Although, if you'd noticed i chose to end the week at Saturday, as all homework of any kind literally makes me want to kill myself.
So how was your week?
