Let this feeling please stay.

Today I've had more pride in myself than I've had... well... ever. 

It started out with my early morning piano lessons (when I say early morning... I really mean 9:30am) I think that my teacher was expecting the typical non-major piano player who can clonk out a few notes but can't really do anything with their life... Then i showed up. 

Now... I don't exactly have the piano skills of mozart or something, but I slightly know what I'm doing. 

We went through about 3 books until he realized all of his things I could sightread... and if not sightread then it would only take me a try or two and I got it figured out. 

I've never really been like that. 

I can't honestly remember the time where I had so much pride in myself because i feel like i was completely adequate at something. In my mind I would put myself down saying that there was someone better than me, always, and to not get my hopes too high that I was impressing anyone. 

Then I spent the rest of the day impressing myself. 

I was competent in Energy, kind of paid attention in Psychology and I got an A on my Current Social issues quiz. 

I would say I'm pretty dang proud of myself. I don't know what has come over me lately... but things are actually going pretty good. 

I'm pretty proud of myself.
