Three positives of today

Another frequented thread on the old forums. 🙂 
The idea is to look for three positive things about your day whether it's been good or bad.

 

I'll start it off.

1. I ate some Maltesers and they were very yummy!
2. I got some of my French assignment done. 😄
3. The new ReachOut forums. Am I the only one who was buzzing with excitement when they came on here? 😄

@N1ghtW1ng Indeed! I cannot believe I did not know of this show sooner! & I'm glad I checked it out after hearing it here a few times 😛

1. Was on time for my psychiatrist appointment, made it through the entire appointment!
2. The cashier at Woolies was my fav when I went through, which helped ease the anxiety after my appointment. She always makes me smile 🙂
3. I watched a movie called Ballerina (2006) which was a bit of fun and different - I cried but I loved the show
4. I had a chat with a friend this afternoon, it was a bit anxiety provoking, but I got through it

1. Picked up a phone call from an unknown caller on personal cell (very hard for me, taking me years but I'm getting better) and got a job interview for tomorrow morning. Handling it ok so far.

2. Made a banger coffee this morning, after realising there was barely enough milk left!

3. Feel proud of myself for going to the gym yesterday for first time in 2 weeks (even if it was only for 20 mins 😞 )

1. I finally cleaned my chewable necklace and have it at uni 🙂 (now to see if I use it)
2. AHHHHhhhhhhh........ Star Wars Rebels season 4 finale! (the last ever) was spectacular (I watched it this morning) and I love it and my beautiful grey jedi knight Ahsoka Tano is still alive and kicking even after the end of the original trilogy because she is amazing and ohhhh boy man that show was great.
3. Yesterday was okay.

@N1ghtW1ng where can I watch this starboard rebels ! I have been obsessed with battlefront II but the game is dying off in popularity now :,(

My three good things for today:

1) I GOT THE JOB. Yes, I hate the idea of starting again at another job for the millionth time in the past 2 years, but I am lucky enough to know a lot of great people that work there. It makes me feel so much more comfortable and excited to work with those people again!

2) Treated myself to a banging coffee again, this time at a cute little cafe

3) I am sitting outside, on a foreshore on a park bench and it is a mighty fine view, and a beautiful day. Good choice I think rather than going straight home to my office. Clearing my head nicely and smells great infant of the cafes. Just wish I had a camera charger so I could have brought my Nikon!

For days of the previous week:
1. I bought a new book written by Ransom Riggs (the Peculiar series) (ooh @scared01 another great book recommendation ;))
2. Started up the new club, things are looking good.
3. Made an impulse decision and decided to go down to Sydney for RO's party (even though I have TWO uni classes, work AND ju jitsu... (which is also the grading ceremony...) OH WELL! Let's PARTYE!
4. My sister in passing mentioned me being ASD and internally I'm like: "hell yeah I am!" She can be such a prick sometimes (but that's just my sister, she's okay :P)
5. It has been raining forever the past few days and it's been great (except it's sunny today... maybe it's all over... (hardly))
6. Just went through my art supplies drawer earlier, it's now shoved into another drawer but more nice-looking I guess...? I need better storage 😛
7. Finally got myself a usb hub (uses only one usb from my computer but has extra usb ports) so now I actually have extra space, although my mouse usb doesn't work from the usb hub very well but close enough 😛
8. Stuff is green (although not like pretty autumn colours, still pretty) It's a good thing I like the colour green. I wonder if people who don't like the colour green hate nature... actually that's a fantastic question.... ANYway
9. I had lasagna for dinner last night and it was delicious.

1. Had a good chat with the TAFE Librarian, she was a little surprised but happy to see me (It's been awhile since I saw her last)
2. I had a laugh with the receptionist at Headspace when I dropped in my Youth Reference Group forms 🙂
3. We bought pom poms for our cats to play with. And dad put one of them on the cat's head as he just lay in the tiles, too hot and tired to play XD

Im seriously in love with this thread. I love waking up every morning and reading other peoples positives, and automatically picking out positives for the day before, and reading them before I go to bed and picking out positives reflections on that day 🙂

 

Positives for yesterday!

1) Feel comfortable, and no longer super panicky about my new job. Going well!

2) Feel accomplished that I submitted the last unit of my certificate and staying relaxed until I await results

3) Cancelled a little bit of contractual work, to take some pressure off myself while I'm starting this new job. Its hard for me to say no to money or work, but this is a good thing that I am balancing work-life!
