[72] Of what a lovely day

I love the weather condition today.

For some reasons, today is a very fantastic day indeed although I slept just for four hours – from five thru nine in the morning due to the invention of differential equation, infamously known to humankind as the capital dee dot capital eee dot.

Yesterday, I did a full pump for D.E. after two weeks preparing for the much expected midterm. Although the sound of it makes it looks bad, I actually enjoyed the pain that I went through. The suffering of not able to comprehend some of the weird equations made me mad and discouraged. Nevertheless, God saved me by making my mind worked better and thus, I suddenly saw through the misty forest of mathematics and found its secret. Out of the blue, the solutions seem to be clearly written in my mind and I could do any problem that was spitted out at me.

Discouragement quickly became eagerness and I sat in front of my desk until four o’clock in the morning, studying the population, acceleration-velocity models and homogeneous equations. By the time I closed my weary eyes, all that I could think of were P (t), M, C, k, P’, e, and all the other math stuffs.

One REM later, I woke up and all ready for the confrontation. I was all ready for midterm. Actually, I doubt I even had a REM sleep.

Two hours later, I was done and smiled all the way from Dennison to Stockwell. I smiled and that means that it was a nice day.

Reason number two, it was a bright but mildly warm day. Previously, Ann Arbor’s atmosphere was extremely hot with static air. The last two days, a so-called isolated storm occurred. It’s not that I hated the storm. I appreciated the storm. The storm did function to cool the environment down a bit but the fact that it was a gloomy day didn’t make me felt happy.

But today, TODAY, I repeat again, was a bright but mildly warm day. It reminds me of how the days during the fall season would be, nicely litted up and gently warm. I am looking to experience fall again. I guess that makes fall as my favorite season.
Thirdly, met up JJ though I don’t really know why I was glad of meeting him. Maybe it was just that it has been awhile since I last met him. Or perhaps, he is one of the few American friends that I think I have a very good relationship. I guess I’ll be looking forward of meeting Matt again. And Khateeb and Unmesh etc. Guys, I seriously miss your squabbling over the dinner.

Fourth, the Commonwealth Games will be up and running in a few hours time.
Next, the food was good (minus the milk which JJ complained to the manager about. AND the greens were yucky).

Sixth, I am just feeling happy. Plain happy and loving myself although I doubt this feeling will last long. Nevertheless, I am happy for the time being and savoring every drop of the juice.
