it's very rare

that people actually change.
merely our perceptions of them do.

AMAZING!
but frustrating.

If you think things have changed, they haven't.

Reason in man is itself a form of divine inspiration.

currently

reading about the partition of India
over 18 ounces of steaming hot tea
with milk
no sugar
listening to iron and wine
trying to transition from the river song
which took over my life for awhile
such are things that speak to the soul
contemplating who i love
which is easy because i love many people
but confusing at times
because i don't understand how love works


disclaimer: this post was written in a nonchalant-esque mood. to do it justice, it should not be read in a serious tone.

the good news!

my mom called me this evening
and told me that
MY MICHAEL PHELPS POSTER CAME IN THE MAIL!!!
now i can't wait to go home and see it!

After the earth has spun

an entire 540 degrees
I will finally rest

tuned in to

iron and wine
for all writing purposes.

I just want to thank a good friend for introducing the word namaste into my life and also exhibiting it in her own.

elevators with mirrors for ceilings

Call me weird, call me vain, call me whatever the heck you want to for this picture. I don't care! Every Tuesday and Thursday I ride up 6 floors in the elevator in Dwinelle. From A to G. And each time I look up to see a reflection of myself. For some reason elevators that have mirrors on the ceilings just plain fascinate me. I think they're wonderful! So I finally decided to document my wonder with my trusty canon powershot. Oh, how I wish all elevators had mirrors on their ceilings. They're just so darn neat. On days like today, I am reminded that my life is fabulous!

i laughed so hard during this phone conversation

Juls are you near a computer?
Yeah.
Of course. So is your google page in Dutch?
(giggles) what??
My google homepage is in Dutch and I don't know why.

a little later:
How do you know it's Dutch?
It says Deutschland.
I think that means Germany.
Really?

best quote of the conversation:
It's comforting to know that some things don't translate...like blog.
