five more minutes...

it's 6am on a saturday morning.

if i were at midd, i'd be excited to start the day.
if i were at midd, i'd be getting ready to head to ross for breakfast.
if i were at midd, i'd be starting on the work for the upcoming week.

but no.

i'm trapped in japan with a nine-hour field trip to (not) look forward to.
going to mt. hiei ~ which would be awesome under normal circumstances

BUT
- it's a full class at 20 people (many of whom i do not care for)
- all hiking up the mountain (separation into smaller groups will happen)
- with our professor lecturing (probably won't hear much of anything)
- miserable weather (just peachy...)

maybe yesterday was just an "off" day.

i was so exhausted mentally from trying to enjoy japan that i couldn't even bring myself to go to the gym, my happy place (besides coffee shops) v_v

my test went fine as expected. all minor mistakes according to my teacher. when i went in to get my exam, 10% of the time was going over mistakes, and the rest of the time was spent explaining how i don't study anymore because i lack motivation >_< she said i wasn't the only who felt this way.

no surprise there.

edit:
yeah, it feels like my situation sucks.
but i have to remember it could be worse.

matt:
well a woman was attacked by a chimpanzee
and her face and both of her hands were ripped off
and partially eaten by it
her day sucks

a positive attitude goes a long way, i know that.
it's going to take a lot out of me to see today in a brighter light.
but i'll do it. i'll try my best.
