It's been 2 weeks. 2 weeks of freedom, laughter and bliss. I made 2 amazing friends, sustained a headache from dancing all night for 2 nights (sooo worth it), and read more than half of The Awakening. I slept in every day. Monday seemed so far away.
And now, it's Sunday night. Monday is tomorrow, and I am making a futile attempt at the homework that I ignored for 2 weeks. My school bag is still crammed with my clothes and pajamas from a sleepover, and I can't focus on anything scholastic, unless you count my regret at not having seen Yes Man OR gone shopping over the holiday.
I am SO looking forward to the coming year. These two weeks have given me so much, specifically really good, true friends, which is something that has been missing in my life for a long time. I found them in two people whom I had no idea I would be friends with. They are judged and even disliked by some people, but I have found nothing to dislike as yet. I feel a sense of freedom and immense gratitude that has come from my friendship with these two. Mostly, I just feel comfortable with them, and I found that I don't actually care what others think of me anymore, or of my friends. What a discovery! I've smiled more in these two weeks than I have for a long time, mostly thanks to these two.
(Note: The title of this post is a tribute to them, because sometimes I actually just don't know. We dance. A lot.)
I've decided that, even though tomorrow will thrust me back into routine, I'm going to get through it, a lot easier than I did last semester. And when weekends roll around, I'll have so much more to look forward to. For now, at least, I know that I can rest, smile and be thankful for everything I have. What an awesome Christmas break.

Life really is good isn't it? Sometimes we forget though :P Sometimes we find friends and sometimes friends find us but the true friends are the ones who decide to stay. Oh and there is no such thing as human, only dancer ;D
ReplyDeleteI agree, there isn't human, only dancer! I'm so glad I found you Dani! I've been waiting a long time too, and this week has been a little rough, but good times are on the brink. I can feel it! :) Saturday will be good. We'll make our video and just chill, it'll be awesome. Until then take it easy my love! :)
