Relax for a minute

Ah yes, the little things.
Who doesn't love the little things? Uh no one, duh.
Seems like I appreciate them more as I start realizing how everything around me is changing, even I'm changing and it's pretty scary to think about the familiar things disappearing at such a rapid pace so noticing the small things make my day a tiny bit better.

I love it when I wake up looking like a 3 and after doing my hair and make up, I go out looking like I'm a fabulous 8.
Coming home after a long ass day and my mom made my favorite meal, YAAASSS.
Peeling of my socks after practice.
Taking long warm showers.
Watching my favorite movie-you should know this-GREASE.
Laughing so hard I feel abs developing.

Drinking the most refreshingly cold water.
Shaving my legs when it's been a while.
Finally going to the bathroom after holding it in all day.
Finding food in the fridge.
Late night talks.
Waking up and realizing it's the weekend.
Having someone who understands me.
Putting together a good outfit.
My mom making me breakfast.
A beautiful blue sky.
Watching the sunset from the lighthouse.
Finishing an essay at 2 in the morning and feeling the biggest weight of my shoulder.

Day dreaming.
Coming home and everyone's like "Yay Vanessa's home!"

Sometimes I don't even get acknowledged when I come home, I barely get a hello. The skies seem bleaker and gloomier than ever.It's just been crazy for the past couple of months and it feels like things won't go back to how they were but I guess this is my new normal and I have no choice but to accept it. But it makes it a tiny bit alright when I step back and realize there's always something to appreciate.
