Most people hate math.

Emotions are strange, complicated, and mysterious. It's just the way things are. The emotion I've been contemplating today is happiness. I have been inexplicably happy all day today. I have no particular reason to be happy. On the contrary, I could think of several reasons to be quite unhappy and indignant. But for some strange reason those have not affected me. Maybe I'm suffering from a lack of sleep. Maybe I'm excited much too far in advance for the school year. I actually think, though, that it's because I studied this morning. I spent two hours studying math. This sounds odd, I'm sure, but there are many good reasons. First, I was sitting in the park while studying, which lent itself to many interesting people-watching opportunities. Second, I have not studied math very thoroughly in quite some time. Last, I haven't used my brain for more than everyday tasks since June 13th. Crazy I know, but learning appears to make me quite happy. Either that, or God is just really nice to me.
