Meet Me In Rome

I want to be here right now.

We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known.

time is the least thing we have of

I have not written a post in a while, and I think I might be suffering from the lack of it, so here I am posting something.

First of all, I’ve turned in my EAP application for Glasgow as well as a Sacramento Internship program. What I have to do now is fix up my curriculum vitae for another program, and more weight will be lifted off my shoulders. I would also like to let you know that I can think normally now. The million thoughts running through my head-most of them have been eliminated. I’ve adjusted to my classes, and I’m closer to achieving a balance. Plus, knowing I got an A on my first stats quiz helped increase my optimism.

In addition, I just rearranged and decorated my room in my apartment this morning, and I actually want to sleep in it now. I have basically been living at my boyfriend’s place for the past three weeks. I can’t help it, and neither can he.

I’ve been reading some interesting stories by Joseph Mitchell for my LJ class, and I recommend you read “Professor Sea Gull” and “Joe Gould’s Secret” if you can. I also watched A Single Man and Lost in Translation. Both had some sort of depressive aspect but were unique and engaging nonetheless. Um. so I thought I had more interesting news to spill, but my mind apparently turned blank.

Here are my final thoughts…I’m excited for Valentine’s Day! I walked into Paper Source today, and there were so many valentine crafts. I love stationary, cards, calendars, etc., and this store always makes my heart filled with joy whenever I enter. Seriously. And…I got a watch from Fossil. I will (make myself) utilize it.
