confronting the pace of reality again

i am really tired of the questions: "how was your break? what did you do?" etc. i simply chilled. it is the activity i havent really enjoyed properly since the summer ended. i could be completely careless and spontaneous. i could do whatever i wanted. there were no duties, homeworks to do, no gatherings, meetings to attend, no appointments or deadlines to meet. it was sweet. it was wonderful. i will miss it throught the term which is approaching extraordinarily fast.

there is a lot of movement on campus again. i liked it peacful. calm. the whole campus resembles this athlete who is going to start in the marthon run within couple of seconds. it is getting tensed and densed. brrr.

gianmarco left to italy. but salome came which made me very happy. well, derek lost his luggage, but found salome. hahaha. anyhow. tonight we shall skål to her first week in vancouver. i hope she'll enjoy it.

i already know that it is going to be extremely busy term. i have sort of agreed to that already. partly because i have a wonderful summer to look forward to. i hope to save some money and travel my ass off in europe. oh europe. old, beautiful, classic. eh. but one of mariam's new year's resolution was to enjoy canada. i will try to follow it to.

enough of thought stream. i will read something now (speaking specifically: death and the maiden by ariel dorfman - a very good political drama).
