Before the sem was over, all I wanted was to be able to lie down and not move for a century. Now that the sem is over, I can finally lie down without setting my alarm, yet I start to feel as if I'm wasting my life away. It's an irony, and one of the many paradoxes of life. But I promise not to oversleep from now on if that will guarantee I don't get migraines anymore.

1 year ago, at this time, I was going to pack for my US trip. It's been a year!!! But what's the surprise, since soon enough it will be 10 years, then 20?


"It was Jacob himself. Jacob was simply a perpetually happy person, and he carried that happiness with him like an aura, sharing it with whoever was near him. Like an earthbound sun, whenever someone was within his gravitational pull, Jacob warmed them. It was natural, a part of who he was. No wonder I was so eager to see him."---New Moon

I particularly like that excerpt. Don't you want to be like that too, and to meet such people?
