Scent memory.

[estriel]

I lit some candles tonight, among them one that I'd never used before. The scent reminds me of America for some reason - scent memory is such an incredible thing. The only thing I don't understand is why it makes me think of my time in South Carolina, when I didn't have candles over there. I can't figure it out

atta girl :) I´m sorry to hear about the Fullbright but glad to hear you´re moving on and feeling more confident, sweets. And oh, you should ask my girl for sheet advice ;)
How was the movie? I´ve heard quite a bit about it - can´t decide whether I want to see it or not.
Hmm, figs, aye??

The boy I'd met during one of the tests, and then later met up with in Prague, who was also applying for Fulbright, got the same message - when, in fact, we were both quite brilliant imo. We both were curious who they did invite in the end

Who knows, yeah? I agree - I´m always interested in the people who make the short list, just to see how much better are they.
And yeah, sometimes it´s good to narrow the options and concentrate better on what you have, yeah? You definitely should do the work shop. And maybe send some stuff out - zines and e-mags and maybe regular magazines then - even if it´s not published, it´ll be a good exercise for you.

She kinda is; also, she is utterly infatuated with hers. There might have been posts and discussions on this topic. I don´t remember anymore what material she uses but they´re the softest, most comfortable sheets ever!

I didn´t actually read the book - I´m thinking I should lend it from the library (when I get money again and can renew my card) and then see. Nothing wrong with romance, yeah?

And is this totally my fault for making you a Lush convert? If so, I´m most happy and proud ;)

Ummm, will it sound very conceited if I say that I am not sure if they were actually better than me? ;) (Though of course I don't know them. But well, I'm an arrogant bitch, as we've already established

I'm sorry about the Fulbright. But. You're right, you can still apply to colleges directly (especially since you already have the TOEFL/GRE done and whatnot). And I wish you nothing but amazing luck at your new job. ♥
