Viernes.

Woke up up this morning to my hair doing crazy things
Can't say that I wished it, but it turned out alright.

I've recently discovered my love for chocolate covered raisins.
I've been eating too many lately.

I have these ideas of how the world should be.
And honestly how I should be.

Not that I think these things aren't important.
But in the long run, who cares if I don't brush my hair?

Estudio-ing con te

I'm up early (but not as early* as I had wanted) to study for my exam.

Armed and ready...




* I couldn't fall asleep last night, and then I reset my alarm in my stupor. Note: horrible hair, PJs and glossy eyed look.

All the single ladies...

I've discovered that when I am on my laptop a lot* the charger heats up like a toasty heater...

Sometimes on cold days like today I find myself maneuvering how I am sitting so that the plug can warm me up.

So yeah, I guess I spend a lot of time cuddling my computer's accessories.






*Studying...not facebook...I am so productive you know....

A List of Kindness

1. The lady at school letting me use her card to print some pages and calling me sweetheart when I thanked her.

2. The small white VW bug that let me over tonight when I was driving in the rain (and feeling scared to merge).

3. The man at Safeway yesterday who had a white beard and moved so that I could set down the zillions of things I was carrying before I dropped them.

4. The man who was parked next to me at Safeway who told me I could prop my cart on the mirror of his car so that it did not roll down the hill.

5. A friend who sent a post card from Japan just to say hello.

6. My teacher, who actually knows my name in a class with 50+ students.

7. The girl who let me go before her in line to talk to our adviser because my question was fast and I was going to be late to work, even though she was running late too.

8. My dad giving some chocolate from his secret stash when I was craving it.

You Belong To Me



Sometimes I imagine Amma singing this song to me....

You Belong to Me by Ben Taylor

See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sunset from a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me

See the marketplace at old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when your dream appears
You belong to me

I'll be so lonesome without you
So, maybe you'd be lonesome too
And blue

Fly the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember when you're home again
You belong to me
You belong to me
