BEST DAY EVER

After drinking Yuban brand coffee for a week I had my favorite Jeremiah's Pick Dark Roast Breakfast Blend back in house today. Little did I know this would be the beginning of the most awesome day ever. The first emails I read today while I was drinking my coffee were the following:

1. I was accepted to University College Dublin for the 09-10 school year.
2. I got my financial aid for next year.
3. Photos of a border collie puppy.

When I got back from the computer lab there was a notice on my door marked urgent. I thought I was being evicted on my celebration day, but it turns out that the gods are smiling down on me because...

"The City of San Jose and San Jose State University have elected to hold a Farmer's Market on all of 5th street, every Tuesday, beginning April 21st, through September 1, 2009, from 12:00 noon, to 8:00 pm."

This is directly in front of my door. I can literally walk outside on Tuesdays and have farmers there with fresh food. It's too good to be true. I will probably go twice on these days, once before class to have a good choice, and once before they close up to get deals because they don't like to bring food back to the farm from the market. I'm going to be swimming in strawberries and tomatoes and greens and melons and avocados...

What a fantastic day, this was exactly the lift I needed. This week started off terribly but the last two days have really been reinvigorating. Perfect timing! I'm going to go have an Arcade Fire dance party with myself and get ready for work, which can't deter my good mood today. From now on, at every table I wait on, I can remind myself that I will have next year to study and not work, for once.
