"where the waves grow sweet..."

It's a beautiful day outside. Yesterday was nothing but rain. Today is nothing but clear blue skies, sunshine, and just enough wind to put a slight chill in the air. Days like this make me so happy that I can barely stand it. Something within thrives on brilliant days. I'm listening to windchimes, watching shadows dance, and enjoying homemade cinnamon rolls. Today is a day for exploring or driving. It seems a shame to spend it inside, but that is precisely what will end up happening. I'm determined to rediscover the lazy Sundays that never seemed to end...the ones where you took a nap just to make time pass faster. They are probably out of reach until classes end, but I'm confident that they're waiting. Weekends always make it difficult to return to normal life. I think that's one reason I'm so eager to finish school. At least with a job, I might be better able to relax on Saturdays and Sundays. As it is, I'm always fretting about homework, tests, or projects. I realize that a different kind of worry will take over my life, but at this point, I think I will welcome the change.

The windchimes sound almost as if they're a song from another world. I could easily fall asleep in my dreamy state, which probably means that I should tackle the day's tasks.
