I'm doing rather much better today... I think the storm outside has helped relieve the hurricane I was feeling inside. It has had a very cathartic effect on me today. The throbbing pain inside my chest has subsided to the point where I don't even notice it most of the time. I think I'm past the worst.

As a matter of fact, I'm feeling almost giddy about not being miserable anymore. Walking between buildings on campus just now, I found myself highly amused at the way the wind was trying to pry my umbrella out of my hand. I could not stop myself from giggling out loud! I'm sure that several of my peers now think I'm insane because they all gave me strange looks before going back to their own gusty struggles but hey, who cares... It feels good to laugh. =D
