Friends

I have been sat in my university library for 11 hours now. I have gotten up once to take a leek.
DEATH PLEASE.

It'd be so much easier if I didn't find you as beautiful as I do. It sucks that I know it's not just in my mind.

One day I will update about Ecuador but I still haven't synthesized it all yet. And I'm not sure if I ever will.

"It is altogether curious, your first contact with poverty. You have thought so much about poverty -- it is the thing you have feared all your life, the thing you knew would happen to you sooner or later; and it is all so utterly and prosaically different.

everything is fucked

Last update of the Noughties. This evening, I am filled with Love and optimistic of a new year, and a new decade. I am excited about the prospect of both, and feel pretty overwhelmed.

I also suspect that this evening, I will drink a hideous amount. Yuk.

Goodbye the Noughties! This past couple of years especially.

I have grown. I have evolved. I am moving. And so are the years.

Weee. Excited.

i hope i'm not putting too much pressure on things for tomorrow. i want to have fun. i need to have fun.

I spent a lot of today with my brother. It's been a good Christmas at this end. Only my Gran came round so we didn't even have the usual Grandparent drama. I'm going to go and get into my quilt soon. I can't wait to see my friends again.
I am smiling.
