brighter than sunshine.

i know how i always abhor the smell of cigarette smoke but for the first time, i feel settled smelling it. how peculiar,

am falling in love all over again with augustana. it's just the beyond-bearable temperature, smoke and dan layus' breathy vocals. the heat usually drives me to the airport before i lose my sanity (if i ever had any left to speak of that is) but for once, i actually like a bit of sweat.

new york has kinda sunken in when xiang called the other day to tell me 'aurial, less than a month left!' i think i can imagine us congregating at the departure hall in the evening, me doing the mental checklist because 'forgetful' is my middle name and that drives me absolutely nuts and then the money/passport thing drives me MORE nuts sheesh esp when maimai is entrusting me with so much money for her stupid bag. ok i know what i bring will be more than the money for the bag BUT STILL, it freaks me out okay.

i'll probably be half dead due to not sleeping the previous night and xiang omg i love her she'll probably be grabbing my hands and be all excited and we'll try so hard not to scream ahahhaha. ok shall stop.

schools has been anything but free. mega house the other day i was diligently washing cheapo-break-like-nobody's-business cups haha it was pretty fun. and a PI labour day i was like freaking out ahhh but glad it's all over now like MAJOR load off my shoulders. and i've been neglecting my friends (i feel) yelp which is why i'm looking forward to tmr! wooyeah. meeting with the art peeps FINALLLLY.
