I’ve had the most amazing night.
What did I do? I slept. Rather than actually getting my coursework done lol. But yeah, I was really tired by like 8 o’clock and I just dozed on my bed for a while. By 10 I had accepted I wasn’t going to be getting any work done so I actually bothered to get undressed and go to bed properly.
I slept through until my alarm woke me up at 6 as I was going to get up and do my coursework this morning. Small hope I know but the most amazing thing happened – I woke up this morning, refreshed. It was early but I felt like I had gotten enough sleep.
This is crazy talk. Do you know when the last time I felt like that was? I don’t. I don’t usually, even when I sleep in at the weekends and it’s afternoon by the time I get up. This morning I felt alive and wake, it was fantastic.
Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t do any coursework, I just watched American Beauty instead but it’s a step in the right direction. I didn’t want to just roll over and go back to sleep.
On the subject of American Beauty, it’s a region 1 DVD which I had yet to try out on my multi-region player. Turns out it plays them in black and white. In the case of AB though it only added to the magic of the film.
It’s easy to forget just how much of a stunningly brilliant film American Beauty is. Alan Ball is an amazing writer and I don’t think it ever shines through as well as it does in this film, it really is a masterpiece.
