Don't it feel like sunshine after all?

After a week of preparing to move, getting into a car accident (it was a taxi, but despite me not being the driver I was still hurt/shaken up) mere minutes before a job interview (guess how that went? awful), still working full time and not having a bed to sleep on because I prematurely sold mine, this has been a rough week. I've been tempted to just be the most miserable person and complain at every turn. Since that does nothing buy perpetuate the cycle of unhappiness that I am trying so desperately to forget, I made a list of things that made me happy over the past few days:

The woman in Sbux who overheard me talking about my bus ride back to Boston and gave me her magazines to read.
The random person on the subway who gave me their unlimited all day ride pass to use.
The really nice taxi driver who listened to me spill my guts after said awful interview and told me that everything would be ok.
The outpouring of positive support I received from my colleagues when I put in my 2 weeks notice.
Running into acquaintances on the street during lunch who give me hugs and tell me how much they are going to miss me.
ATT texting me to tell me I'm about to go over my data plan instead of just charging me overages with no warning.
Going home to CT, sleeping in my own bed, and hopefully seeing my family visiting from HI.
The boy getting to Seton Hall when I was ready for him to be in Miami for the next 3 years.
The weather is starting to feel like fall!

That felt good. Out with the bad, in with the new.
