Daily Happiness
1. Still nice and cold yesterday. I love this weather!

2. I got my paper done for yoga* yesterday and it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd thought it would be. The first paper was one of those where I could barely think of anything to say and didn't meet the minimum length requirement at all. But this one I was able to easily get two pages without putting much of any thought into it. (I'm horrible at writing papers, so that is really rare and amazing for me.)

3. Pretty productive day! Not only did I get the paper done, but I also got a good chunk of translation stuff done.

4. I've been on a caramel apple kick lately. Carla introduced me to these caramel wraps. Ralphs has them in a package of five for $1.50, so they're pretty cheap. They're thin circles of caramel and you just wrap an apple in one and stick it in the oven for five minutes, then let it cool off and eat it. Not the healthiest food ever, but as a replacement for a less healthy snack or dessert, it's not bad. It's mostly apple, after all.

5. ???

I was going to say something else and then I got distracted and forgot. D:









*Yes, I'm taking a yoga class that has tests and homework assignments. It's because we're taking it at the college. But it's so much cheaper** there it's worth it.

**Because we're low-income, we don't have to pay the per-unit fee (which would only be $26, since it's a one-unit class, but still), just the general enrollment fees, which come to like $46. That's for an 18-week class that meets two times a week. Plus I get an SMC ID that lets me take the Santa Monica bus anywhere, anytime for free for the whole semester. I took a look at a class offered through the city and it was $75 for a class that was like 8 or 10 weeks and met once a week. I'm sure private studios are even more expensive.
