Waking up to a sunny and cool morning immediately started my day on the right foot. I felt quite relaxed and content. This was also triggered by the fact that I had just gotten nine hours of sleep. This pleasant feeling lasted for a while because my roomate made me coffee and I had the opportunity to relax with a book I have been meaning to catch up on reading.
Unfortunately, this emotion did not last all morning. My downstairs neighbors have managed to set off their smoke detectors about 14 times in the last 24 hours. This triggered an emotion of being annoyed. The intensity grew with each sounding of the alarm. Luckily it has not gone off anymore so my annoyed feeling has since past.
More recently, I have had a slight feeling of homesickness. This was triggered by speaking to my sister on the phone. She lives close to our parents so she easily goes home for meals which occasionally I am jealous of. So I guess I also had a feeling of envy. Neither of these are pleasant feelings but the were low intensity so it wasn't too bad. These emotions lasted for a little while but upon working on homework I eventually forgot about them.
As I write this blog entry and work on more homework I am back to my content mood. I have had a productive day so far and I am enjoying the breeze coming in through my open window. I am looking forward to the day off tomorrow and am hopeful that it will be as beautiful as today.
Glad you're having a productive weekend. Be sure to take a break, too. :)
