joyeux.
sincerely. I woke up form an hour’s worth of sleep, so totally exhausted right now! But it’s a new day, the Giants’ won the World Series, I turned in my journal articles review, and even though I am not finished with classes I have plans to get off campus :) I can’t stand staying within campus boundaries for too long. I need San Francisco. It’s my true campus. You just feel so happy here in the City.
Tomorrow is a big day, Thursday is a big day, Friday will start off a great weekend;
Wednesday: dip after first class to attend the Giants Parade, write stories
Thursday: BIRTHDAY! nothing too special, but my family will come out and see me and we’re going to have a nice little dinner out in San Francisco
Friday: just classes, then homeward-bound for the weekend
I thought October was amazing, I just hope November will easily match. I just wanted to talk aloud about life, lol. I’ve been planning out so much, and when I think of all these plans at once I just get overwhelmed and soooo excited about everything. And just around the corner— the Holidays. AND Starbucks red cups :D
and how can I forget about HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART I coming soon??????????????????
it’s raining in San Francisco right now hard. but i am very happy at the moment, rain never makes me depressed. it’s so cozy! i haven’t eaten dinner yet. some nice hot tea? i have a novel to edit. chapter 14 out of 30 i think? it’s coming along. my clothes are soaked from the rain. my nose itches. hair is disheveled. i’m looking and admiring the mini Christmas tree sitting on my desk. it’s silver. gosh, i have so much to pack for winter break. what to get my family and friends for Christmas? change my shoes, because my black pumps are kinda wet. flats! that’s a good bass line in the song. i’m staying in the City this weekend. i kinda want to be home already. in the East Bay. see my friends. see my family. see a certain someone. probably wouldn’t have seen them, but i like hoping. yeah, i’m an optimist. this means that the rest of this week, disregarding my astronomy final friday, will be spectacular. right now is food, good music like The Boxer Rebellion, The Walkmen, Arcade Fire, Phoenix, Matt Costa, Kasabian, Death Cab, and Franz Ferdinand in my ears, and then just falling back into the tons of blue and white pillows on my bed. soo nice. sooo wonderful are rainy days.
now i sit at home by myself; Mommy and Milan went to the hospital to visit my grandpa. seriously, i can really tell this is going to be a very different Christmas. life always changes. it’s just weird how i’m really picking up on this stuff. it’s not really a bad thing. i really hope my grandpa can recover soon, he’s doing better, but he won’t be at home with us on Christmas, which really is a downer. at least i still get to see my family more and be with my good friends. i love it when it’s winter break and we can all be together, mostly for college gossip ahahahaha.
i gotta clean my room. all my clothes i brought from USF are scattered all over. it’s ok, i got Christmas tunes on! so excited; two Christmas parties this weekend, and one is an ugly Christmas sweater-themed! i was also invited out to clubbing back in the City the same night, but idk! all i know is that i have no other worries— it’s winter break, the semester in college is done, and there’s just all these opportunities to hang out.
it’s going to be a different sort of winter break, but i sure am excited nonetheless. just gotta keep on smiling.
all this time i’ve been playing songs he loves on my computer as we speak— the same tunes i practically love also;
“Unforgettable” Nat King Cole
“Moon River” Andy Williams
“Everybody Loves Somebody” Dean Martin
“Somewhere, My Love” Ray Coniff Singers
these are really some great, loving, melodic tunes. i love my indie rock, but not even those songs can touch on the feelings these classic songs bring about in you.
all i want for Christmas is my grandpa to get better soon.
