Today: a good day.

I like school when it is calm. I like inside jokes, passed notes and light teasing. I like the things we come up with -- politically correct photo shoots, haiku, houses in Malaysia and HDB flats. I like that I can joke with friends who are attached about being attached, I like that I have single friends to joke with about our ( Read more... )

I've been thoughtful lately, and contemplative posts more often than not turn out to read like emotional blather, so today will be a happy post, because I've had a happy day and, amidst all this uncertainty and questions, life's pretty good.

I love my friends. My life is happy. Yes, amidst this painful, terrifying process of growing up, I love and am loved. This is the contentment I want to spend my days in, for always.

I am happy.
