two things
one: i love the concept of semesters; just as i find myself hopelessly drowning in a raging ocean, i see the lifeboat of a new start. fall was a time to break and mend but spring will bring a time of growth, rejuvenation, and pleasant surprises. i’m excited.
two: talking to old friends never gets old. time and history create my foundation for comfort and comfort fills me with a lot of...

three days of classes has already worn me out. summer, wherefore art thou?
i've read this too many times for inspiration
“hi my name is jon foreman and this is my bio. I’m writing it from a backstage dressing room in Ohio. It’s a beautiful fall day outside and the dying leaves make a fitting backdrop for the decaying junkyard across the street. Fall. Autumn is my favorite time of year. Everywhere. Even back home in San Diego where there is little distinction between the seasons: autumn is my...
ANNOYED
okay, so this is my third post in one day. i guess i’m trying to neutralize my extremely brief hiatus or i have no life. or i have to pack for school and study for the placement exam and i’m back to my die-hard habits of procrastinating! but i really just have to vent about these two things.
1. CHAIR KICKERS. dear chair kickers of the world, I HATE YOU. I HATE YOU ALL. let me...
new york and some other things
i went to new york for the past four days and it was awesome. shruti was an excellent and lovely hostess and mel was a questionable and mental companion. i love them both so very much. new york was filled with walking to the point of exhaustion, taking the sketchy subway and making sure nobody got raped, eating delectable cuisine, shopping in places that made me feel poor with their four digit...

shoes SHOES shoes SHOES
i think i have serious self-control problems when it comes to shoes. whenever i see a beautiful pair of shoes, especially boots, i promise you that they call to me BY MY NAME. so that means the shoes and i are already like, best friends. and how could i not buy something that wants to by my best friend? it would be so cruel to leave it there stranded and feetless and that, my friends, is the...
songs
songs i can’t stop listening to as of recently:
love me tender; norah jones
i don’t like the original of this song which is by elvis presley. props to him for being king of rock and roll or whatever, but i think he’s a pretty weird dude. his voice sounds like cheap seduction. so thankfully, norah girl does it justice by utilizing the perfect amount of soul and love. this is...

a couple of random things
first off, happy 2010. new year, endless possibilities. i love the idea of a fresh start and i’m always humbled by the transience of time
