mas

Other things:

1) I love this new book that I've started reading called "Shantaram" which makes me want to go back to India so bad. I'm sort of considering maybe going and living there for a while after I graduate. Whenever I visit I always get a little bit sad that all my family knows each other so well and they don't really know me at all and I'll pretty much always be an outsider among them. That's why I have to work extra hard to make sure that I have a good connection with all these American babies because they know what it's like. I hope that one day maybe we can all get together and live in the same city and go visit India together as a family. That would be ideal.

2) I LoVe the fall. I am reminded of the dewey mornings in the Box with the piles of colorful leaves on the front lawn and the taste of applie and pumpkin pie, and sweat shirts and jeans and being cozy. I want this feeling to last.

3) I'm trying CL again. I crush way too hard and way too easily though and I think I need to simmer down a little before I actually try to do this. We'll see how it goes.

nuevo

I haven't writen in this thing for a while because I'm too lazy. But here's another list of things on my mind that show what's going on:

1) It's September now and I have officially lived in this apartment for a year. That's the longest I've ever lived somewhere since the Box. I like settling myself down and having a place to keep my things but it also makes me extremely anxious that I'm not moving around but I'm still okay because I've accomplished a lot in that time. I think I'll make my cut off at two years and that's it and if I'm not gone by then, I'm going to have to do some serious reevaluating.

2) I hate all the students flowing back into Boston filling the streets, the restaurants, the grocery stores, everywhere. And how you have to see them everywhere you go and looking down at the ground doesn't provide much of an escape. And obviously that is a repercussion of living in the biggest college city in the country but I wish they would all just go away. Or better yet, I need to get the hell out of here quick.

3) I am not looking forward to the initiation of the upcoming semester. I like all this free time and going to work and just being done with it and not having to worry every second of my life about what I need to study for. Just one more and I'll be done and won't ever have to set foot on Northeastern again.

4) I like cable but only as a treat. We were thinking about getting it but I think once I actually owned it I wouldn't appreciate it as much. And I really should dedicate my time to better things than stupid Celebreality. I like Linds' idea about wishing Comcast would give us just a couple extra channels, maybe 5, just to keep us going. That's not asking for much right? Why won't they just let you make your own package? It's not fair.

5) Having accidental sex dreams about people that you encounter in daily situations is weird and oddly a bit empowering. I had one about a co-worker but she doesn't work there anymore so I need not worry about the awkwardness I would feel, so that's nice. I guess it's only weird when you enjoyed it, as opposed to it just being funny and ironic.

6) I've had some good nicknames in my years, but while looking up domain names with Linds, they suggested "nehooha" for me and I really liked that and I hope someone starts calling me that soon and if they do I know we were meant to be.

7) I hate facebook so so so much but I gave in and activated again just because, well I dunno. I think maybe I felt like I needed to get in touch with the world a little more, because obviously facebook is an outlet to the world, but not really. I don't want to talk to anyone or know anything about anyone, but alas, here I am. I just hate how this is actually a good way to keep in touch with people. I guess I don't really like any of my other options either; I'm going have to think about this one.

8) I've accomplished some of the things I had been meaning to on my old list and that makes me a little happy. Look out for a new one soon.

9) I wish I went to the observatory tonight because the moon is full and beautiful but most importantly, I miss Quinn who knows everything about space and is from the south, despite what others may say. I'll go next week.

10) Okay. That's enough for now. Good night and good luck.
