"I hold a beast, an angel and a madman in me, and my inquiry is as to their working, and my problem is their subjugation and victory, downthrow and upheaval, and my effort is their self-expression.” - Dylan Thomas

I would really just love to fast-forward to my Galentine’s Day dinner with Annie and then fast-forward again to the point where my homework is finished and I can go to sleep. I’m sad today because when I started thinking about what the new year would bring back in December I had thought about this day, and about how Valentine’s Day might actually unravel in my favor and be really sweet. But obviously that’s not happening and I just feel sad.

I’m not going to make a big deal over it. I’m not going to feel bitter towards happy couples because they deserve to be happy. I’m not going to be the person who posts super melodramatic things on Facebook or anyplace else because there are already plenty of people who do that and, honestly, the universe would benefit from fewer negative vibes. I’m just going to make myself look nice today, go to my classes and meetings, enjoy dinner with Annie, hang out with friends at the dorms, do my homework, and finally go to sleep. It’s just another Tuesday for me.

February 15th looks like it’s going to be a better day, anyway.
