number 80, on a Thursday.

hi.

have you ever figured out something or been told something or just seen something so small but so powerful and it kind of just hits you? because that’s kind of how thursdays feel. (also things like babies smiling at you and understanding math. because the world is funny like that). anyways. i think that it takes the smallest of things — bad, good, strange, plain — to remind us, at times, that there’s beauty and pain and greatness in life. we can find it anywhere. we just have to look, or stand still long enough so it can hit us in the face, figuratively. (or literally, if it’s a note flying in the wind from a cute boy. but whatever.)

have a little pick-me-up tune https://open.spotify.com/track/5YWP23fhLuBR7adVav91Nb and remember that I’m rooting for you. I hope you find that little thing that makes your day as bright as the sun, and I wish you all of the love in the world. have a good day.

hey friend,

There's a lot going on today, there was yesterday, there will be tomorrow. That all happens in the world, in your town, your school, and inside you. It's a rolling tide we can't stop, and that's okay. Through it all I hope you have a good day. Each day is a new one, and that over everything should give you hope most of all. I'm rooting for you. I wish you so much love. Have a wonderful day.

number 78, on a Tuesday.

buenos dias, friend.

I think it's a pretty darn good morning, considering the sun's shining and we've got oxygen and such. I hope you had a good Monday, but whether or not you did doesn't mean that it'll affect your Tuesday.

Maybe your Monday didn't go as planned. (Such is life.) Maybe that one sketch looks gross to you, or you think that person you complimented thought you were strange, or you thought your comment in class wasn't impactful enough. Sometimes, though, we're our biggest critics and we often have the biggest impact. That sketch might've been da Vinci quality. You could've made that person's day. You could've inspired a thesis.

Take a cool tune. https://open.spotify.com/track/3zN9FNSKRyCq17MNpQvDNd Go out today and realize that you are a force of nature. I am rooting for you, you fiery pigeon, and I wish you all of the strength and love the world can offer.

Guten Tag, friend.

Just wanted to shoot you the swiftest of good mornings and the best of wishes on this cool, bright Monday morning. I hope your weekend brought you rest (or at the very least, fun and happiness amirite). You may or may not think you're ready to take the week head on, but you totally are. Find some peace of mind today if you can :)

Anyways, here's a super jam https://open.spotify.com/track/5a4d1YVJ3OBFRqgAhRK36o and I hope that you hear your favorite song and smile or pet your favorite kind of animal (because #allergies) today. I'm rooting for you with all of my being. I wish you peace and hope and love. Here's to a great week.

number 76, on a Friday.

hi cool human.

I just wanted to tell you that today's going to be a really good day for ya. there's an infinite amount of reasons why, but the one I'm choosing is simply because you got through yesterday, the day before, the day before that, and you have the heart and strength to not only survive, but to live and thrive in beauty and triumph. so enjoy your day and your weekend, and remember that I'm rooting for you wherever you are. I wish you all the strength and wisdom the world can offer. I know I repeat that, but know that I truly do wish it. have a beauteous tune https://open.spotify.com/track/6iGU74CwXuT4XVepjc9Emf and an even better day.

number 75, on a Thursday.

Hey friend hi friend ho friend!

Today’s Thursday, and like I predictably say on Thursdays, the week’s almost over. What I can’t predict, though, is what’s going to happen everyday, because as you know, we can’t control everything, and that’s okay. Today, friend, I don’t have much to say — at least, not much that I can express in words. What I do feel today that seems stronger (though don’t be mistaken, I always feel this way) is my appreciation of your very existence. You are a wonderful, beautiful tropical fish and you may think that, you may not, but I certainly do. I hope today, someone somewhere lets you know that because you deserve that and more, and in the same way, I hope you remember to let the people you love that you appreciate them, because there’s nothing quite like that in the world. Hang on to that.

Anyways, I’ve got a tune for you https://open.spotify.com/track/69bVsJ4DyvkTcUVRodbipO and I wish you all of the love, peace and strength the world has to offer. I, Michelle, am rooting for you with every breath. Don’t forget that, and have a beauteous day.

number 74, on a Wednesday.

I've run out of ways to say "It's hump day" without using my camel pictures. RIP my jokes. Anyways. Good morning friend.

You're in the middle of the week, sandwiched by the past three days and three more ahead of you. What a cool position to be in. You might think, "Shoot, remember when THAT embarrassing thing happened the other day" (I feel that) or "Oh man I hope this happens in the next few days, I'm really counting on that". And yeah, sometimes you've got control over your life, and sometimes you don't. If something happens today that isn't quite what you wanted, don't worry about it. There are a million and one ways to get to where you want to be, and I know you'll get there. So do what you do best, and that in itself can be reward enough. So just do it. (Swoosh!)

Anyways. Here's a funkylicious tune https://open.spotify.com/track/0dMd4rilfd6gPbXaLpNYhu and know that I'm rooting for you. I wish you so much strength and love. Have a good day!

“Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.”

number 73, on a Tuesday.

hi friend.

I hope you had a good day yesterday.

There's a lot that we know as humans in the 21st century, more than we've ever known before, but there's just as much mystery that lies before us, and some of that will be there until the end of time.

While we are the discoverers and innovators of our time, I'd also like to hope that the mystery frees you. Strive to find new things, meet new people, yes, but know that who or what we love, what the universe or God has in mind -- those little things are beyond our control. Let that ease your worries that you have to know everything, because that's not true.

I hope you have a really good day and have a moment so special or funny or fuzzy that your heart poops its pants. Here's a tune https://open.spotify.com/track/389hKTL3ZBPPWP3VuXfEyv and just know I'm rooting for you. I wish you peace and love.

"It becomes clear that we human beings are not bounded by the limits of our own little “I” but that we are part of the rhythm of the universe, that we too, so to speak, assimilate the heavily rhythm and movement in our own bodies and thus, thanks to this interlinking, are fitted into the logic of the universe."

number 72, on a Monday.

Good morning, you gem of a human being.

It's Monday. (Already. I know. Life hits you fasts.) It's a day where you force yourself back into some semblance of routine. For some, that might be a-okay, but for many, it kind of sucks. Don't forget that, even though you're in school or at work or doing something tedious, this is life. This is it, so you kind of owe it to yourself to do what makes you, you. Listen to that album you've been dying to listen to. Take that walk around the lake. Get dinner with that cool person you met the other day. It'll be great, I know it.

Here's a supah fly tune for you. https://open.spotify.com/track/3elOzp9X3B8vMGhJBWzbIF I wish you all of the wonder and love the world can offer. Have a lovely day!!

number 71, on a Friday.

YO. WHAT UP FRIEND.

IT’S FRIDAY. Whether you’re recovering from a wild Notre Dame Thursday (lol) or saving all that youthful energy for the weekend, the end of the school week has arrived, and I think that’s awesome.

I think a lot of people (including me) find themselves saying, "THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY. It's been such a long week" a lot more than they think, which is fine. We're human. It happens. But sometimes I like to kick back, relax and think about the week, and I realize that there are so many people that I'm always thankful for, whether they're for small favors or huge impacts on my life. I'm no priest or wise scholar by any means, but I think it's really important to remind ourselves of that. I'm making it my goal to acknowledge and hug (virtually, physically -- who knows if I'll get to see everyone who's been wonderful to me?) as many people as possible who have been a part of my life. Yes, this includes you, because like I said before, I'm so glad you're in my life, and I'll keep saying that because I'm sappy and it's great. Anyways! I'll leave you with a much more eloquent quote. Make good choices this weekend! Have loads of fun! Much love ❤️

“When I look back upon my early days I am stirred by the thought of the number of people whom I have to thank for what they were to me. At the same time I am haunted by an oppressive consciousness of the little gratitude I really showed them while I was young. How any of them said farewell to life without my having made clear to them what it meant to me to receive from them so much kindness or so much care! Many a time have I, with a feeling of shame, said quietly to myself, over a grave, the words which my mouth ought to have spoken to the departed, while he was still in the flesh.”

-Albert Schweitzer

number 70, on a Thursday.

oh hey there friend.

I hope you had a good day yesterday and the days before, because guess what? It's Friday JUNIOR. (It's Thursday. Yes.) there are strawberries in the dining hall, the sun is shining, and you are alive, along with seven billion other unique humans. Cool, right?! And sometimes, there are humans that aren't all that nice, or situations that make life hard, or inevitabilities that make your day very sad. Sometimes, it's hard to get through that alone. So today, don't forget that there are people who DO care. I sure do, I know that.

"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping."

So don't forget that you aren't alone, and I wish you all of the love and peace in the world. Here's a tune, and happy Thursday. https://open.spotify.com/track/3ikcPRWKVx5oSalVpLzQQu

number 69, on a Wednesday.

It's a good day to be alive, isn't it? :)

Just like Wednesday is the day in the middle of our week, we can inevitably find ourselves in the middle, surrounded by people. (There's more than 7 billion of us, after all.) Though we are capable of achieving many things, individually and together, there are just many things we can't do and choose to fix, like read minds or achieve absolute perfection. I heard this beautiful story -- it's too long to tell now, but ask me about it sometime, I'd love to tell it -- but basically, it ended like this:

“It’s important to be kind. You can’t know all the times that you’ve hurt people in tiny, significant ways. It’s easy to be cruel without meaning to be. There’s nothing you can do about that. But you can choose to be kind. Be kind.”

So today, the way I know you can, be kind. You have the capacity to do it. I'm rooting for you, and I wish you all of the strength and wisdom the world has to offer you. Here's a tune, and have a wonderful day. https://open.spotify.com/track/34sBeOfxLF4hYJVkJHGh13

number 68, on a Tuesday.

Oh, hi :)

Today's Tuesday. A day after the oft-dreaded Monday but there are still so many days in the week! It's so weird! What an odd duck of a day, Tuesday. Sometimes I feel as if we just kind of pass through Tuesdays, but you know what? I think we can do better. I'm willing to bet that some of the greatest discoveries happened, some of the greatest people were born, and some of the greatest things will happen on a Tuesday. So if you're waiting for the right time to do something, anything, do it now. No time like the present. Because we, as someone once said, are the music makers and the dreamers of dreams.

We've SO got this. Here's a tune for you: https://open.spotify.com/track/4f4HLo6L9CJNhD4mEYxrCL and remember that I am rooting for you every moment of the day. I'm wishing you all of the hope and love the world can offer you.

number 67, on a Monday.

A very lovely morning to you, friend, and a very happy Monday. Today, I have something that I think captures little things: the cute things, the happy things, the things we don't actively think about. A lot can happen in a day, much less a week, so just remember that.

As always, I am rooting for you with every teeny bone in my body. I wish you all the strength and love the world can offer. Here's a tune to jam to https://open.spotify.com/track/5oeT9WBOEIgnnggVerhdCb and have an awesome day :)

number 66, on a Friday.

it's Friday. It's lit. YAY!

Time really does fly, but I hope you had SUCH a good first week. I know I have no room to complain. I hope that your first week, also, has ramped up your excitement for what is to come, because a new year with some new people? It's a beautiful thing, filled with possibilities, whether they're academic or something else entirely.

Anyway, here's a tune https://open.spotify.com/track/1moCMLpfq511VT2DnAkNV5 and I wish you all of the love and joy the world can offer you. Remember that I'm rooting for you, and have a wonderful day.

Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.” - Goethe

number 65, on a Thursday.

Why hello there friend :) I just wanted to take a minute to say that I hope you go out today, breathe in the relatively fresh air, and marvel at the fact that you are indeed alive in this world. As ravaged and filled with sadness as it is, we're not finished with doing good and spreading joy yet, and not for a very long time. There are a lot of things - doubtful people, scary places, even your own worries - that can hold us back, but we aren't, unfortunately, cats. We've got this one life, and I have faith that you're going to rock it in one go. Here's a tune for you https://open.spotify.com/track/03kCR9HZpX5muU7D8xYPOL and I wish you all of the strength, joy, and love that the world can offer you. Have such a good day. 💜 "I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing that I wanted to do." – Georgia O'Keeffe

number 64, on a Wednesday.

In the Philippines, the phrase for "good morning" -- "magandang umaga" -- actually translates to "beautiful morning", so...magandang umaga, friend :) It's hard to believe that it's already Wednesday! Now you're only a few days away from the weekend. Even though it's the first week, however, it's still hard to get out of bed and motivate yourself sometimes (especially if your bed is as warm and comfortable as mine feels.) But like I said -- it's already Wednesday! You've made it through half of the week already, and that's pretty terrific. In my first class yesterday, my professor talked about the stars, and he said that if you trace our origins all the way back (religious belief aside), we are all made up of millions of stars created by the Big Bang. So if you ever need motivation to get up, just remember that you are indeed a star :) Here's a tune for you on this awesome hump day https://open.spotify.com/track/4obmNfBDRw9zS4yAi7oLuo and just know that I'm rooting for you. I wish you all the peace and love the world has to offer. (Also here's a picture of a 4-month old camel friend I made.)
