くに、おめでとう！

Dear Kuni

I know I don't tell you this enough.. Or maybe I do the exact opposite. I don't know. You're such a mystery to me, I'm not quite sure what you're thinking when I'm being ridiculously me. But anyway! I'm guessing that it's been announced in the emails about your resignation. So this post is dedicated to you! HA. I don't know if you remember the first time we met. Cause I do. And it was embarrassing. At the time, I was overloading on the Nat King Cole playlist and... it affected my speech cognition. I said words that were taken out of "context". Definitely something I'll never forget.. But more importantly, I'll always remember the late nights when I would Skype you because I needed a distraction from homework cause I'd done nothing but school work all day and night. You always responded and always found ways to keep me entertained till I felt motivated to continue with my work again. I never quite thanked you for that. So, thank you! Thank you for taking such awesome photos at SUA over the last... 2 years? Haha. And actually, thank you for helping out at Vagina Monologues, agreeing to do it on a last minute request, and of course, the really cool graduation snapshots. Those were really fun! 

As your underclassman, I really look up to you as an inspiration to always strive to be better while remaining humble always. As a friend, I'm super excited for you and your new adventure! Good luck, and please keep us all updated on your new line of work!! (: 

YAY!

Wake Me Up...

... when my stop is here... (whoa! it rhymes with the song lyrics too, nice!)


But uhm yeah, not sure why, but I've been falling asleep in buses (not sure why this doesn't happen in the subway) more frequently lately.

I related my past sleeping (more like bob your head involuntarily while napping) experiences, and was -in vain- told how dangerous it is cause I'd miss my stop (uh, this happened to me once in Barcelona actually)! To which I replied... NAAAAAAAH. I've never missed my stop when it happened so far. Until today...



I was 2 stops PAST my stop, heading to my 3rd and that's when I woke up. I also thought the bus driver would be stopping soon. But to my dismay... Nope. And some lady was asking me some question but since I didn't understand what she was saying, I just sat down awkwardly. Then the bus stopped at a red light and the driver asked me something and again clueless me couldn't respond. So instead, I said "here's fine" and was let off.



PHEW. CLOSE CALL. Thanking the lucky stars that I didn't end up in the oceanside or something.


Speaking of stars...

This'd be a really fun painting project

Ah. I miss painting class. 

But on a whole other topic...

I spent about 5 hours talking to someone on Skype today. It was pretty interesting. The topics ranged from electronic cigarettes, to food (more specifically Korean food), and then relationships. One thing I'm left to think about was about how a person can say if their partner is "the one". We've seen such magnificent increases of divorces over the years. Noooot to mention the immense amounts of marriage proposals (I blame Vegas marriages, and overpopulation). But no, really. Often we see these marriages lasting short, abruptly ending because "things got tough" when a vow of "for better or for worse" was made. Hmm. 

How can one really tell? 

Okay. I'm gonna go ponder. Though honestly I barely have time (kay this Skype call was once in a while, also cause I place high importance of maintaining good relationships with friends)

Thanks for reading today! Hope it didn't bore you too much..
