6 Degrees of Spontaneity: How being spontaneous lead to good things one Sunday afternoon

-  running into a couple of girls i know while browsing around a store downtown then being invited to go out to lunch & to listen to some live music..deciding to take them up on the offer & go with the flow

-  while on the way to our destination, one of the girls told us that she was planning to get married! this summer! in las vegas! (there are exclamations for a reason) Of course we were excited for her & she was beaming with happiness. The news made me slap happy 'cause it was great to share in this with her. It makes me feel all warm & fuzzy to know that someone knows whom their heart belongs to. Gush.

-  met up with a couple of other ppl at this pub..they ordered a pitcher of beer..& i got meself one hunk of cow meat..that's a burger to you..& we discussed stuff that cracked me up. All the while, live celtic music was playing one foot away from our table. Literally. There were two fiddle players, one guitarist, an accordian player, a drummer, and a flutist. I almost felt like i was transported to Ireland. All that was missing was lush green hills.

-  after being dropped off at home..because i felt bloated from my meal..me & my roomie picked our asses off the ground and went for a walk..& somehow we ended up on this dirt road that led us to a muddy, muddy path. While navigating our way back home we ended up at a spot right beside the river where we laid back & enjoyed the sun. I'm going to miss my roomie. We always share good laughs. She thinks I'm a goof, and i think she's a goof. By the time we got home me stomach felt all better because of the walk & because i had such a good time laughing. It works out ur stomach ya know.

o.k o.k that wasn't exactly 6 degrees..but 4 is pretty damn close to 6 i must say. Just being outside also made my day..nice weather can make such a difference. Hey, that can be my 5th degree. SUnshine, sunshine, u can come my way anyday!

things that made me feel like a child again these past two days:

yesterday-  When i went for a walk, when the sun was actually shining, and discovered how fun it is to step into crunchy snow after freezing rain pelts it and forms a smooth hard glaze. Actually, discovering how fun it is to run right across the untouched glossy surface of the track field at school is, and then surveying the damage i have done to its pristine surface. Then even better, deciding with my friend to actually attempt to do front-in surface glides over the snow to see if we would actually glide. Predictably, we do not, but rather sink and make extra loud crunchy noises. It was enjoyable. All the while, my roomie is finding it hilarious and snickers at us from the sidelines while we get wet. Of course i have no regrets, even tho the insides of my sneakers squelched with melting chunks of ice as i walked home.

today-   When my roomie walks into my room, after i have spent all day infront of my desk writing an essay, carrying a package. First i assume it is another package she got in the mail from her mom, whom sends her care packages from home, that is from Saskatchewan. But i was wrong. It was for me! And it was from her mom! I couldn't believe it, and was spewing out loads of disbelief as my roomie watched me unwrap the package that was addressed to me. One layer down, another layer to go! I felt like a kid at christmas, or even better, that it was my birthday and someone forgot to remind me. Oh, the surprise! I was even going all flush with excitement. Finally, after delicate unwrapping of the shiny paper, i hit the jackpot. Easter eggs, a beanie doll, and a cute card from her mom! By now, i have gotten over my disbelief, am thanking my roomie profusely because she obviously had something to do with this surprise, and am digging into the chocolates. How sweet of her mom to think of me. I want to do a good deed for someone else now. I had forgotten how it feels when someone does something for you unexpectedly.

Sometimes the best things are the simplest things. Sometimes they are the most unexpected things.

What makes my world spin?   Ear infections & sleeping in head freezing conditions.

Do Asian women actually ever have weight related health issues that I should be concerned about?  Umm..yes..eventually for some the biggest problem area is the belly. That is, some Asian women develop pot-bellies (& this is not due to beer),which has been said to have health repercussions. I think I'm actually already developing a pot-belly. Oops.

What do I think an interesting development would be?   If fuel cells became the dominant source of energy in 30 or more yrs such that it can be used to light our houses, and so that oil will not be rellied on so heavily as it is now.  Hopefully the price of fuel cells will  eventually go down so that it will become economically viable to use commercially. Hope this becomes, or anything else for that matter, an alternative source of energy. Especially since the burning of oil is slowly killing our planet, and its depletion is causing us to cause harm on one another in wars where we use other reasons to mask our true intentions.

What types of pain are there?   Many.  What will the most painful experience I will have to endure in my life be?   Most likely having to give birth. Yes..it is the most physically painful thing to experience..it even comes before being shot or stabbed!

What is the most impressive feat I have accomplished in the past 24hrs?   Ingesting 325g of gummy worms in the span of a few hrs.

What is my biggest fear?   Nothing! I'm fearless! Sigh..yeah right.

What is one thing I found pleasant this week?   The sweet smell of white roses when u place your nose right up against their silky smooth petals.

What would I hope the world will be like in 25yrs?   Hopefully everyone will be living in "relative" peace, or the classic answer would be "I hope for world peace". The first would be a bit more reasonable though. Maybe green architecture will dominate the skyline in every city. Maybe the availability of fresh water supplies will not be a major problem as some predict. Maybe by then we will have learned how not to put a strain on the planet that supports our very existence, but how to live a sustainable life. Who knows!! That's why it's exciting.

Will money define my success in life?   No.

What is real & true to me?   Whatever I make it to be & that is what will be true and real to me.

Who am I?   Just a girl...but not just any girl....

What is this girl currently doing?  Pro..cras..tin..a.ting...
