I completely fell off the writing train when summer started. I won’t list excuses or other life things that got in the way but I want to list some quick highlights.
I turned 24….Prospect Park is the true backyard of Brooklyn, and any sort of shindig on the banig1 will always be fun.
I went to Otakon in Washington DC. Healing the inner child and being a nerd is so cathartic. I usually hate my picture being taken but when I’m in cosplay…girl, the world is my stage.
My friends are moving away. If only we weren't so ambitious and smart….(I miss them.)
I got my wisdom teeth out. Where the hell does the wisdom go. I woke up halfway through the procedure because it took longer than they expected. I was numbed up so I didn’t feel anything but I was so high. They gave me crazy drugs and narcotics for recovery which I did not take.
I did not go to the beach nearly enough this summer.
I’m trying to get back into writing and making sense of my thoughts instead of just stewing in them. Yesterday I took a walk in Prospect Park after work and wrote down everything that intrigued me. I’m going to keep doing this for myself so I’m more aware of my surroundings instead of up in the clouds like I usually am. My parents got me a book on mindfulness meditation for my birthday and I’m trying to learn a thing or two from it…perhaps my parents are trying to tell me something. Anyway, here are some thoughts. I really think I’m Suzanne Vega or something.
Until next time! Peace and love.
Tagalog for “mat.” The one we have is still kicking after our parents first bought it in the Philippines before they even immigrated to the States in the 80s.
