to sam

Recently (very recent, after talking to Bui last night), I’ve been thinking about friendships and how friendships are maintained and conversely, what causes them to fizzle out. I think, for me, I don’t need a constant reminder that someone is there–we don’t need to hang out all the time–but it’s that I care enough to [...]

that’s how you know

Today I was walking to class, thinking about who I’d have as my bridesmaids in case I managed to nab a rich, good-looking tycoon (this is an oft-thought-about possible career option), and I was really glad that I could name at least four people that I’d genuinely want to be there with me on my [...]

recollection

Sometimes I wish that I had a computer with me all the time, especially when I’m alone and thinking, because that’s when I feel like I have the most to say. And maybe my inner monologues are starting to sound a bit more intelligent…Nah. I really love public transportation. As someone who can’t drive, I’ve [...]

scratches

Dear Cousin, I still wear the ring your mama made for me, though it’s now given me a tan so I have to alternate fingers every so often. It acts as my engagement, promise, and wedding rings (not to you though, because that would be kind of gross). It is my nostalgia, commitment, and my [...]
