simple things

so, i've always thought that the simple things in life were really the ones that made the difference, and i haven't really proved it until right now.

i just got out of the shower, and had to come and write cause my brain was gonna explode from all the thinking i was doing...
so, i was in the shower, and i noticed that there wasn't that much water coming out from the shower head and it took me about three minutes just to get my hair wet, when it usually only takes about thirty seconds. and, i burst out in tears.

at first, i had no clue why, but then i looked back on my day...
*i STiLL haven't found my geometry book since a few weeks ago, so i have to do all my math homework at school with someone else's book, and i get super stressed out when i don't finish my homework for that day
*i have a band concert tomorrow and sunday morning, and i'm stressing out about that cause i've hardly practiced, but i guess i set myself up for that one...
*i had to sing in front of people and have them criticize me
*i forgot my judge dee book at school, and i need to have it completely read by wednesday
*my weekend is going to be hell because i'm going to be doing band stuff, working, and rehearsing all weekend, and i would be doing homework, but i can't because my judge dee book is not with me
*i was tired after my three hour beauty and the beast rehearsal, and then i had to go to another one
*while getting out of the car, it started to pour, i had an open bag with clothes and paper inside, and i realized i need twenty-seven more arms to survive in this world
*my parents got mad at me for not having my judge dee book and geom book
*and last, my shower water wasn't coming out strong enough

all of these things are SO tiny, and they don't even matter, but added up, they make me stress like crazy...


but, there's another side to this...simple things also make me happy!
the best thing in the whole entire world is when i'm at a chinese restaurant, and it's family style, so there's that huge turning circle with all the food on it. and, i start turning the table and so does the person across from me, and i stop with the dish i wanted in front of me (usually beef and broccoli) and i say, "oh, sorry, what did you want?" and the person opposite me says, "this," and it's the one right in front of them (let's say fried rice). so, it just so happens to work out that what i wanted lands right in front of me and what they wanted lands right in front of them...i absolutely LOVE that feeling...

so, i think the simple things make the biggest difference in the world, and i feel better now that i've written this...see how simple that was? just me sitting and typing on a keyboard, getting my thoughts and feelings out...simple and rewarding
