independence, it sure feels good.
last week was quite a week. a little too much for even the drama queen in me. the only blessed day was when i did my pocky dance =), and of course C giving me plenty of jokes and making me feel loved =). would i be ungrateful if i said, "that's about it"...?
the truth was, my cup was running dry. i had nothing to offer and i tried too hard in doing so. i was hungry, yet i lacked motivation to be fed. why is that? i can know what the answer is, yet, at the same time, do nothing about it to exercise that fact. it finally caught up to me last week.
instead of spending friday night at the lilo and stitch movie, i found a broken heart in need of some attention. i catered to this heart, got some work done, and went to bed at a presumably late hour, considering that i had hoped to turn in super early that night. the next morning, i found myself bonding with my friend M on the train ride to ny. coming here, i never really had a chance to bond with her in that way until now; we were both struggling to settle into a new environment, handle our jobs, and find our community asap. the 1.75 hour train ride seemed like a breeze as we shared some deepest darkest secrets; oh wait, that was me monopolizing the conversation again....in that case, possibly many made it into the conversation we shared. we click. we really do.
aside from all the running around, missing T during dinner, and feeling pain on my ankle again, i did get to catch up with my friend A. i haven't seen him since the beginning of my move here to the east coast. 6-foot, that's what i call him. as a friend who has known me for the past, what, 12 years, i can honestly say that he is someone who can read accurately well. but this time, i read him...=)...i don't remember seeing his smile so big, his thoughts so passionate, and his heart so real. yep, he's dating again. it adds so much more to our conversation, so it seems. i'm happy for him. do you remember being excited for someone because that person was so passionate about what he believed in that you can almost tangibly feel the power exuding from him? it made me really happy to see my friend smile.
