I guess I always thought it'd end this way.

So. I was feeling ok last night with this rejection. Screw it, I'm not so OK.

I had a good day at work, all told. Had lunch with the other intern and one of the MSGs, posted a letter to a friend, and did some good workywork.

I rode home with the girls. It was the younger one's 5th birthday and therefore also her first day in primary school (that's how they do it down here.)

I asked to be dropped off at the movie theater tonight. I wanted to watch Star Trek again. Tried calling Minh, but she didn't pick up her phone. I'm too good a friend to wake her up by calling again now.

Star Trek was as good as I remember it. Good way to keep my mind off what it's been mulling over for the past few hours... Weeks... Months. The movie sends chills down the spine. I think it's mostly the soundtrack, though the characters are eerily close to their Prime U counterparts in their mannerisms.

Then, I decided it'd be good to do some shopping in the supermarket just downstairs from the theater. Light shopping. Some herbal tea, and some lamb for dinner this weekend maybe. That's all I bought. It was a beautiful clear night out. The stars were out in full force. But it was frosty. My breath misted in front of my face as I made the walk back to my residence. And then I started to tear up.

wellington, lonely, girls
