restlessness and matted hair
These days, I shower as little as possible, further confirming my brother's accusations of being gross. Yet somehow, I feel beautiful, liberated, and unkempt, hiding behind gaudy earrings and matted hair, oversized scarves, with spandex pants tucked into my boots. Instead of the caffeinated, busy college life, I'd like to sit around all day on the patio, writing poetry, drinking wine, and reveling in silly conversation. Moments occur, when I become mildly concerned, when I succumb to insecurity when I receive perplexed looks for my appearance. But those pass quickly, and I wander from classroom to classroom, taking notes, making plans, meeting deadlines; with a smile on my face, and knots in my hair. Thinking that the meetings will end just after the hour, but I can always be just as happy and unkempt as I make my mind up to be.

Sounds like a good day to me. I'd rather do that than college life too
