today was a good day
Friday, March 8, 2013
The sun probably influenced all the good luck I had today. Or maybe I'm just pulling shit out of my ass again. But today was indeed a good day: the sun was shining (and NOT dripping rain on Raincouver for once), it's finally getting warmer, my father told me he thinks I've lost weight when in reality I've actually gained weight, life's good. Compound the good weather with the good news that I got accepted into the UBC Arts Internship Program for the summer makes a very happy me. Even better, I decided to drive to school today (as I have been doing every day since reading week ended because I'm a lazy bum and can't get up 20 minutes earlier to catch my bus) and actually got to enjoy the sunshine from the front seat of my baby rather than the overly crowded bus. But wait, I got back to my neighbourhood early and decided to drop by EB Games to buy a case for my 3DS because well, I need one. And I've been using an ill-fitting case that's actually meant for my portable hard drive so it was justifiable. I walk in, browse around the games as I always do because why not? Habits come in handy, because I almost missed out on seeing the copy of Fire Emblem: Awakening that was just sitting there in plain view (granted, it was a couple of shelves above my head because I'm such a midget but I saw it anyway). I see, I stare, I pick it up, I hold it close to me like a possessed person. So I walk away with both a new travel case for my 3DS and a game that's been sold out everywhere since it came out a month ago. I was told by the salesperson that they had just got the shipment in yesterday so I was extremely lucky to have chosen today of all days to walk in. My day ends well with a nice haircut that I've been in extreme need of because 8 months without a haircut is almost equivalent to death for me.
