A good day

Today is a particularly good day for me. I told my friend, it might be my first day of spring and I meant it. Our paper is officially accepted and it's going to be my first published paper, although I am only the second author. But it totally makes us feel relief and it will make our future publication easier. A good start is very important, isn't it?:) Early this morning, my western blots worked, eventually. After so many days of work and trouble-shooting, I got a clear positive result. It made me jumping in the lab. Maybe silly, but super happy:) Early tonight, I got a call and some project I helped with worked perfectly. What can I say? It's simply a lucky and happy day. After almost two months of back pain, I felt, for the first time, much better today. A friend told me a phrase: when it rains, it pours. Maybe, good things should come in three or four, shouldn't they? After the terrible snow-freezing rain, the beautiful sunshine came out. The sky was so blue and everything smells like spring. On the way home, he told me that I was shining. When I am happy, I guess I would be shining. After such a long time, in winter, of hard working and fighting with depressing result, finally, we get to a point that we are going to get something good out of it. I am very exciting, very!

Since I met him, I realize more that time of a day is very limiting, and when I am with him, normally I don't realize about time passing. I told myself, I have to call old friends, I have to call my family, I have to do this, I have to do that!... However, things are normally not as planned:) Well, dear friends and family, please forgive me. I guess I still need a little time, to adjust to this life, when I am in love:)
