And the world is possibility/
And the world is made of energy/
And there's a light inside of you/
And there's a light inside of me/
It's gonna be alright/
We're gonna see the sunlight


I love happy songs.

I also love summer. It is the perfect weather around here right now. Warm, but not too hot. Often a bit of a breeze, which is great for bike riding. Sun shining down, lighting up the evenings for walks home.

My job is good. Everyone there is lovely. Coworkers and guests alike. The tourists seem far less bitchy/stressy than the ones who would come to the tourist stores I used to work at. I also have a more varied job and many new things to learn.

Econ is still hard. I mean, the assignment grades so far are A/A+ level, but the answers really have to be thought through. 'Thinking like an economist' (*barf*) does not come easily to me. It doesn't help that I greatly resent the way the textbook tries to indoctrinate people into that way of thinking, and how the authors are completely unabashed about this fact.

Dance class is going well. I finally got a combo I'd been having trouble with, thanks to a new girl who joined who is even less experienced than me. Having the pressure taken off that I would not be the worst one gave me the confidence to simply let the muscle memory take over.
I had a chance to go the rink (it's harder these days when I get weekends off and there aren't any sessions then) and I have not lost any of my skills, even the newer ones, which was nice news.

List 12. Weekly Rituals:
Yah, no I don't really have any of these...
Uhhh watching tv maybe? I mean even laundry isn't necessarily a weekly thing (*owns too many clothes*)...

List 13. DIYs I Want to Try:
- making a cupcake stand
- sewing a metal frame purse
- pillows!!
Lots of stuff, lol, I dunno, I want to make fun things that are useful. But some things I also want to buy, or else I'd need access to a wood shop in order to make them (and lessons again because it's been a while). Truthfully I'm not a very crafty person, not when compared to my mom or the people on Etsy who seem to be able to create magic, but I've made some neat stuff.

My feet hurt. I started my new job today and I'm once again not used to standing for hours. I remember going into place of work one time and seeing a volunteer sitting on the steps (and standing up when my friends and I came in) and now I see why.

The one good thing about dance tonight is that you are supposed to keep the weight off of your heels, and it is my heels that hurt the most.
