Here

I may be unemployed, I may be living with my grandparents, I may have a single friend, but it doesn't matter. At least I am here. Finally, I am here.

Let's Take a Train Ride to Anywhere

Let's take a train ride to anywhere and when we get there we won't know where we are and we won't care. We'll find a coffee café and drink some espressos and lounge in the chairs outside, and maybe have a cigarette. We'll converse for a while and then sit quietly because we don't need words to fill the spaces between us and we'll just breathe in the moment and then breathe it out. I'll smile at you and you'll wink back and then we'll have a laugh, realizing that several hours have passed and it's time to be on our way. We'll get back on that train and maybe doze a little bit to the rhythmic turnings of the wheels on the tracks and when we finally arrive, we'll collapse on the couch and dream of future train rides, together and apart.

Working for the Weekend

That's all I was thinking while at work yesterday, and then the weekend finally came.
Pi Sigma Alpha initiation; downtown/old town Monrovia with Caitlyn, Gabby, and JC; Korean drinking games; new friends; late-night adventures/shenanigans; actions and apologies; getting called out by my friend on her blog the morning after. Oh, life.

And the weekend's just begun.
