With all the stress of the past couple of weeks, it seems natural that I would get sick as soon as I am about to get a break.
Regardless of the head cold I seem to be developing, today was a day to remember the people that love you. Long distance relationships are hard, platonic or otherwise and although I have been blessed with some of the best people ever in my life, sometimes I forget that and focus too narrowly.
Hearing the voices of two of my closest friends tonight was just what I needed. Talking about life and the future and adventures was just what I needed. The best part is getting to say "love you" when I go to hang up the phone and mean it more than anything.
It's also great to go apartment hunting and realize that studying abroad is a completely legitimate option and have your professor tell you that you are doing some great work when you thought you were doing terribly and felt incredibly guilty about it.
As an added bonus, if you get to eat mashed potatoes or have a cute boy show up at your door with handmade musical instruments, your day will be infinitely better, sore throat or no sore throat.
