Doing handstands in New York City

Today was a boring day. Even though the my morning started out just fine, I found myself shlumped over a notebook in french class, reciting comforting love songs to myself in hopes of feeling better. Nothing really happened to me I guess, I just seemed to have caught a spell of thinking to much, then demoting my thoughts into a bad mood. That happens to me sometimes. Less this year than last year, though. Eighth grade has been pretty happy so far, and I'm looking forward to not spending a year half depressed all the time. Oh! Did I just give you my grade? Crap muffins, look like I just did! That can be bad news on the internet...whatever. I trust all of my readers. Just remember, Shhh!
I awoke this morning with the sweetest song in my head. 'Bruises, by Chairlift.' But, here's the thing, the song shifts. So if you're in a really happy mood that song will be your anthem; but if you happen to be sad, it's like a bittersweet limb that you cling too. In the morning, I was singing it in the dark room during Intro To Photography. Later, it was my chanting song throughout lunch, committee, and french.
Weirdly enough my bad mood left while listening to 'Hey There Delilah by Plain White T's.' Yes, it's an incredibly popular over-played song, but it makes me REALLY happy. So happy that I'm guilty over it. Using one headphone on Anneke's MP3, it spontaniously played and I almost felt every sad and unsure bone in me melt away. So now, once again, Bruises is the happy song it once was. Another one of my comfort songs. God, I love music.

'I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do handstands for you
Everytime I fell on you yeah
Everytime I fell'
{Bruises, Chairlift}
