I need a little bit of faith, a little bit of hope and a little bit of everything.
I'm emotionally exhausted and spiritually drained.
Beyond.

I am older, I am bolder.

I wish...

- that I was accepted in the program I seriously died, in order to get in. (4 hours of my life gone...)
- that work would call already and let me know about my schedule.
- that school didn't finish so early. I miss doing SOMETHING with my life.
- that I was in Mauritius. Basking in the sun, in the warm, in family bonding, in dirty sidewalks, in polluted air, in people infested streets, in the bazaar, in the flea markets, in delicious food by the street, in buying from street vendors, in my grandpa's snack bar, in the Indian Ocean, in the sand, in simplicity.
I want to go back and visit. If I had the money, I would have definitely gone with my dad.
- that Bon Iver would come to Toronto for a show very soon so I could go with my sister and we could BASK in his beautiful music together.
- that last summer would come back to me.

In other random news, I watched Oprah yesterday. Love.
My hair has gotten lighter. Probably the citrus shampoo I've been using. Lemons make hair lighter, did'ya know?!
I bought a Spring men's jacket from UO for a whopping $9.99. It was $100. Ja right.

Temps printanier

I am enjoying the lovely warmer weather. That's probably one of the minor things I miss about living on a tropical island.

Today:
- I had my 45-min total body burn cardio workout! I love a good sweaty workout;
- I cooked some couscous to compliment leftover dinner for lunch;
- After lunch, my dad and I set up the gazebo;
- NOW: Tea and croissant.

Late Saturday Night Tunes



Bon Iver's "For Emma Forever Ago" record on repeat.
Today I:
- took a walk with my mom in the ravine
- ran some errands with my mom
- saw someone I didn't want to see
- basked in the beautiful Spring weather in my backyard (which consequently led me to having too much sun exposure) so I took a 3-hour nap
- studied for my psych exam

It's more than a dream

Listening to what: Deyarmond Edison
Doing what: My last "first year" assignment. I'm actually, genuinely, enjoying writing this philo devoir. 4/8 pages, let's finish the remaining four pages!
Planning to do what later: Take a walk around the neighbourhood, start studying for my psych exam for Monday, fixing myself a plate for lunch, go through my course notes so I can get rid of them.

Edit 14:36pm
Doing what: Finishing up my philo paper, drinking my iced vanilla latte (delicious).

This time, last year

I'm not supposed to be here
No, I quite simply lost the time
And all these people gathered round me
No, they are no friends of mine.

CURRENTLY LOVING

1.
Being Erica - My sister and I have been obsessed with it ever since we started season 1 on Netflix. I don't know how I lived without it!! I love how it's all based in Toronto and they do it without shame too. I cannot wait for the fourth season. And Erin Karpluk is beautiful and amazing. Shiri Appleby and her are also practically voice twins. I miss LUX :(

2.
Geek eyewear glasses - I finally got them last friday. It was strange to get used to them at first. But I love it! And since they are transitions, they're the perfect "sunglasses".

News

1. HIRED! - Hell yes!
The perks of having an easy-going unorthodox employer who's interviewing you!
Training starts on April 12. It might be a minimum wage job but it's better than nothing.
2. Being Erica - I am practically in love with this show. Whoever came up with this concept is a genius. Erin Karpluk is amazing! Sebastian Pigott's voice is beautiful. It's kind of a less raspy Ray LaMontagne but still hauntingly beautiful. I've watched seasons 1 and 2. I can't wait to start the third one! Yay for Netflix.
