Cautiously Doing the Happy Dance
Dec. 6th, 2005 01:28 amI took a look at my last few journals and I realize that anyone stumbling on this might think that I'm in desperate need of some Zoloft or a bottle of Scotch (Mmmmmm, I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly...) I sound positively Scandinavian (Or emo, aren't they supposed to be depressed all the time?)
Let me state the obvious: this is a slice of my life. The same way that a still photo captures single moment of the grace of a ballet dancer in flight, this journal only reflects my feelings and thoughts at the instant I click the update journal button. This journal is static (well written and witty, but static;) My life, dynamic.
And no more so when it's beginning to sink in that in one week I turn in my final project (Also known as 'The Growing Beast That Will Not Die".) I will be done with my undergraduate studies.
This rocks big time.
I still have this irrational fear that something will go wrong and prevent me from graduating but that is what it is, an irrational fear. I'll just keep telling my therapist, week after week and eventually it'll go away. I am cautiously optimistic because my neuroses is holding me back from full out joy. I'm gonna shut my freaking neuroses up in the closet and
Sloooowly lift my arms and
Sloooowly flap them up and down while
Sloooowly stamping my big feet
Look at me! I'm doing the (cautiously) happy dance
Boo Ya Indeed.
(Hey, if this post seems something less then coherent, wait until I actually hand that bitch in next week. My first post after that will likely look something like this: aekpjhvcbq3uyq2cvi uyvcopidbv98rbp qeuybqrbyvo[qxcf.
I just might have to crack open that bottle of Eis Wein I've got at home and have a drink or three.)
