Today, the 3rd day, was quite awesome. I had figure drawing all morning, but sadly we didn't have a model so the teacher talked for a while and we drew the skeleton model. I'm glad it worked out that way, because as boring as drawing the same skeleton over and over again gets, it was a great warm up after going an entire summer without drawing a figure. Plus it's good to know where bones are and stuff. Therefore it was a very nice morning, not thinking of a single other thing in the world other than my drawings.

Lunch was pretty great. Today I was wearing an outfit I wasn't sure looked okay, but then my frickin awesome boyfriend ambushed me with compliments in the stairwell I sat in with Michelle. Instant self esteem boost. I got a few other compliments, too. I hadn't felt that accepting of my appearance in a long time.

My sociology class was okay. I spent it drawing more while a documentary about murderers was on. I actually quite like the drawing and the class was interesting enough and went by fast. English made me kind of sad, which it's done every day so far, just because I have no friends and am surrounded by dumb bitches, plus the stuff we're learning seems completely pointless. It was over soon enough though, so then I wandered to the library, got a fantasy book by an author that a friend recommended to me, as well as some coffee.

After that I went and sat in a tree at a nearby park and drew for 3 hours. It was fucking awesome. Most people didn't notice me in the tree, though I could see them perfectly. The weather was nice, my drawings turned out half decent, I had some good conversation with two people via texting, listened to my music and enjoyed the view. It was a really good afternoon. I knew if I had gone home I would've just layed in my bed, felt miserable, ate a lot of bad food, possibly cried, and then have taken a 3 hour nap which would have made me feel even worse later when I would be unable to fall asleep at a decent hour. PROBLEM SOLVING, YAY.

I also acquired melatonin and it (sort of?) has been helping me get to sleep earlier. Last night I fell asleep around 10:45 and tonight I'll aim for 10. So, yeah... that's my day. I'm content.
