shine again for me.
i want springtime to come back. T_T I know i know, i'm whiny.
Today was full of chance encounters. I went down to the Sasakawa Peace Foundation's library (essentially, a lending library~) on L St to return the volume of Yuukan club Kaori had me borrow. すごい偶然でa librarian I'd met at the conference down in Georgia was there just for the day, looking at the facilities. It was the weirdest thing.
Then, when I caught the G2 back toward Georgetown, I just happened to get on the bus that Pat (classmate) takes to school everyday. So instead of taking a nap, I had to make conversation all the way back. Maa, at least it wasn't awkward.
Instead of the ability to run into random people I know in unexpected places (it seems to happen to me a lot), I'd rather have the bus always be running a little but not very much later than I am. That would be an awesome talent.
I am tempted to try to take back my kitchen. I kind of miss cooking sometimes.
there is a very troubling lexical gap in english: the contraction of 'am not.' am't. I think we need it.
After dropping off my library book, I bought a spinach and cheese croissant from Au Bon Pain because it was literally next door to the library and because I'd been dreaming about these croissants for a while. Sometimes you need to scratch those kinds of itches.
despite having several questions on several topics answered, my meeting with Rob took very little time. I wish I'd known that before, so I could have gone to office hours instead of scheduling an appointment so early in the morning.
So sleepy. I took various naps throughout the day (some intentional, some not. like the one i took in leavy after it took me less time to eat lunch than i thought it would v the one i had while doing my reading), but they don't seem to have helped much. idek why. :\
I only read half of the article we talked about in class today, but I still posted about it on blackboard. Language policy in the US is both interesting and depressing.
Drinking grape juice while eating peanut butter toast tastes like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I was very surprised.
Today was an English day.
tagged by grunhilda. it's been so long since anyone tagged me for anything. i feel absurdly loved.
People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves. Tag 8 people. Those who are tagged cannot refuse.
These 8 people must state who they were tagged by. You cannot tag the person who tagged you. Continue this game by sending this to 8 other people.
♦If your lover betrayed you, what will your reaction be?
I would probably cry. If it's something big enough to need the word 'betray,' we probably wouldn't keep dating either.
♦What will you do if you do not share the same feelings as the person who likes you?
It would probably be very awkward, but I'd try to be nice when I told him, and he'd have to deal.
♦What will your dream wedding be like?
Two words: WATER WEDDING. XDDDDDDDDD
sillyandmorbid is planning my wedding.
♦Are you confused as to what lies ahead of you?
I don't know what lies ahead of me, but I'm not confused.
♦What's your ideal lover like?
good in bed. faithful.
♦Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone else?
I'd say they have different blessings. Which is nicer for me? Being loved. But then i'm pretty selfish.
♦If the person you like does not accept you, would you continue to wait for them to change their feelings?
Well. It depends how they turned me down. If I liked them enough to bother telling them, then I don't think I'd be rejecting them in the future, because something must have been attractive. But I think I'd just move on.
♦If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
cut a bitch, obvs.
...ok, fine. nothing. that kind of things happens.
♦Is there anything that has made you unhappy recently?
people who don't know how to use the buses make me irrationally angry.
♦What do you want most in life?
I think i've got a lot of them already (friends and family), so if I picked something that I want but don't have, I'd like to have a secure, trusting relationship.
♦Is being tagged fun?
yes. or. well. It's probably not the highlight of my life. But i like it usually.
♦If you find out that your best friend is going out with your boyfriend/girlfriend, how would you react?
I would be down a girlfriend and a boyfriend. I'd also have to re-evaluate my character judgment abilities.
♦What was something that made you happy recently? (changed from: Who is currently the most important person to you?)
sleeping ♥
♦What kind of person do you think I am?
I think you're incredibly sweet and it makes me happy that you let me dork at you.
♦Would you rather be single and rich or married and poor?
...assuming that it was a good marriage, married and poor. If it was only a halfway decent marriage, I'd pick single and rich.
♦If the person you secretly like cannot recognize you, what would you do/how would you react?
I would probably say that I hope we can still be friends.
♦Would you give your all in a relationship?
Eventually.
♦If you fall in love with two persons simultaneously, who would you pick?
Who says yes?
♦What type of friends do you like?
I don't know if there's a certain type across the board, but. In general I like people who are reasonable, who are sarcastic, who say mean things but don't usually mean them, who flail with me, who tell me random things, who can put up with me and my inability to keep in touch regularly, who like music, who like to dance, who like to talk, who will mock me mercilessly when I do something stupid. I think the only one that's required is the first. I don't like people who are senseless and cruel, who judge without knowledge and then are unwilling to listen to arguments to the contrary.
♦If you played a prank on someone, and he/she fell for the trick, what would you do?
LAUGH REALLY HARD. no really.
edit:
I understand maybe, 35% of the dialogue. it's awesome. :Dv
I guess I'd better go transcribe. do not want does not even begin to cover it yo.
