Well, I just listened to The Battle part of the Chronicles of Narnia soundtrack, and it's put me in a very good mood. Better than I was already, even. Epic battle scenes from soundtracks are amazing, without exception - even epic conflict. The Battle from Narnia; I Don't Think Now Is The Best Time (affectionately known as IDTNITBT) from At World's End; Hello Beastie from Dead Man's Chest; Barbossa is Hungry from Curse of the Black Pearl; The Bridge of Khazad-Dum from Fellowship of the Ring...they're all amazing.
Why am I in such a good mood, one might inquire? Well, Great West euphoria seems to last a while. And for anyone who wasn't there for my SQUEEing in person, and hasn't heard on Facebook (I think pretty much all of you were one or the other, though) - yep, I made it to Great West. My study time per day has rocketed up to something between 2 and 3 hours, but I'm so insanely motivated it's not even funny.
Other happy stuff includes (still) the award I got for my grade 8 piano exam mark; the fact that my short story won an award and is now going to be assessed on a national level; the event of being home alone for four hours yesterday and using those four hours to make myself chocolate pudding; I bought Dragonology; I paid off my laptop and might now have money for, like, clothes (gosh, radical thought); all the exciting stuff that's coming up like Easter and the youth retreat and Great West (SQUEE); me getting my learners' license; the stack of books in my room that are still to be read...gosh, I'm even happy during MATH. This is momentous.
Yeah. Life is SO good. I was contemplating this in the car last night, and found that it's valuable in this kind of situation to remember that now you FEEL like praising God for all this awesome stuff he's given you, but it's important to do it when you're down or discouraged or depressed (D is a bad letter) too. How lucky am I, really? God' given me everything I have, and it's pretty darn good. THANK YOU GOD.
Now I'm on You Look Good Jack. Let's change it to something epic. Aha, the Gondor theme.

Epic music is fantastic. :D
Especially ones like "Barbarian Horde" from Gladiator or "I Don't Think Now Is the Best Time" from AWE. :D
