a tribute to the seemingly mundane.

i keep thinking that i need earth shattering news in order to have a reason to blog. yet i failed to document most of the significant occurrences that has happened to me in the past few months.

i have not been incredibly busy (not lately anyway) but despite the lack of money, direction, a love life and most things that grownups seem to have, i have been decidedly calm and surprisingly happy. my days have become overly simple but i find that i enjoy knowing what to expect.

i love that i can wake up and have breakfast and drink coffee and get updated on the news and watch morning tv. i love that i now have time to focus on class materials and actually understand the things i'm supposed to. i love that i have teachers who are good and who make sense and who inspire me to open my books.

i love that after class i can go home and watch tv and read a book and sleep without the painful fear in my stomach that i may never finish what i need to finish before morning time. i love that i appreciate conversations that i have with people now, because i have time to listen, even more so, to have time to ask people how they are and play the role of the indulgingly good friend.

i enjoy my weekends a lot more than i did before. i enjoy finding myself in new situations and meeting new people. i find myself becoming more intrigued by new people that i meet, and interested to build new friendships. i enjoy occasionally throwing away my inhibitions for surprise karaoke nights (99 baby!) and impromptu hang-out parties. rekindling old friendships and finding joy in teeny tiny crushes on boys who are cute in a non-obvious way. hahaha. hanging out with kindred spirits, my block girlfriends and finding ourselves in silly situations, random laughtrips, and more food adventures.

it has just been a pleasure lately. now if only i gain insight into what i need to be doing in order to provide for myself continuously...i'd be all set.

yeah, mundaneness can be awesome.

for now, the only thing i await is for someone to come and ask me to dance.
