What makes for a great day?
Waking up after having slept a full six hours and not needing to do work in the AM
Going to class and receiving the last of the 6 mini-papers of the term back and the grade being 100%, which makes for 6-100% papers of 6 papers required
Going to another class and getting the paper back that you turned in a day late which you hated yourself for because your Prof. had said that the paper would be the thing to really bring your grade up after an uneven term and getting an A- with comments from the Prof. and TA being "Great paper and interesting thoughts," and "I really enjoyed reading your paper."
Finding an email in your inbox from your Prof. in yet another class saying that yes, you were right, the question on the take home final was miswritten and the way that you re-wrote it for the Professor is the way it should have been written the first time around and then there being another email in your inbox from the Prof., but this one being sent to the class as a whole informing them of the change that might have gone unnoticed had you not been using your noggin'
And then seeing another email from the boss at one of your two jobs (who you thought disliked you) responding to the email you sent about your schedule over the Winter Break and for the Spring Term and his saying that you are always so great and he is always willing to accomodate changes in your schedule because you always come to work on time and tell him well in advance if you will need to miss a day and you picked up on how everything in the office works so well and quickly and (without you having ever said a thing about it) is going to give you a $1 raise and wishes he could give more but it isn't currently in the budget
What ruins that day?
Getting into a fight with the guy you're dating because you have a need to tell people when you think they are fucking up whether or not they want to hear it and because he can't put pride aside and heed good counsel
Semi-spraining your thumb at cheerleading practice and being only barely able to type this post
