Staying Positive

Things that have gone right lately. My attempt to be a more optimistic person.

I will post every day, at the end of the day (or the next morning), about the good things that have happened to me in that day. The hope is that I will begin to be generally happier and more positive, rather than focusing on the negative as I tend to do.

 

If you would like to join me, e-mail me or leave a comment on one of my posts and we can talk about adding you as a poster here. I think that it would be really cool if this were to become a multi-person endeavor, if others are interested in helping to make it one.

June 5, 2007

(sorry for so few updates recently; finals week means I've sometimes been getting to bed so late that the five minutes it takes to do this is more time than I can spend)

Music: Goo Goo Dolls A Boy Named Goo
Reading: Gilman "The Yellow Wallpaper," Kalstone Sidney's Poetry
Current stress level (scale of 1-10): 6.5

Good things that happened today:
1. Woke up next to Jason.
2. Lunch at the faculty club with my freshman-year advisor. Yummy creme brulee!
3. Post-lunch, had a conversation with said former advisor (also the University archivist) about plans for my internship in Special Collections. It sounds like I will be doing mucho exciting stuff!
4. Took notes on one whole book for my Sidney paper.
5. Took notes for another final paper -- ahead of my proposed schedule!
6. Hot shower.
7. M&Ms!
