Read more: Friends.Last week, I said goodbye to my friend Timothy after he visited me for 2.5 days. It all started the previous summer, when he threw the idea of meeting up the next year. I said yes of course. A man of his words, a few weeks ago he actually bought a ticket to Gothenburg. And…

Saturday Night
Okay, let’s take a break from the Cornwall posts (which is nowhere near the end). Last Saturday we made a potluck dinner for the second time, this time with more people. The more the merrier! We came to Alex’s, and that place was packed with people from all around the world. France, Venezuela, Mexico, Slovakia,…

Cornwall pt. 2: Land’s End
Wow, I’ve put this off for too long. It’s been busier than usual in here with all the classes and assignments. So here’s the second part of the Cornwall trip. After St. Ives, we made a stop at Land’s End. The entrance looked like a recreational park for children with no hints of the sea…

Cornwall pt. 1: St. Ives
I lived my childhood in a fantasy of being one of Enid Blyton’s characters, with Famous Five being my favorite series. I read the books again and again, and took all the description about England’s countryside in an attempt to form a vivid imagination about it. Then last week, out of the blue, I…

23
Two years ago, a bunch of friends came at midnight with a cake, smeared it to my face and pajamas. A year ago, I celebrated it with these people, with an hour karaoke session and a slice of Oreo cake. Today, it’s only me and a stack of books in the Hartley Library, my favorite…

Going West
You told me to fly to where the sun goes. So I do. I wish I could wait for you at the other end, and had a whole different ending.

Brother
Brother went away to a village for his school’s program, and is scheduled to come back just a few hours after I take off. Oh, the irony. I’m gonna miss hanging out in his room and teasing him, and our mission to smuggle some snacks to the bedroom with the midnight raid at the dark pantry, because we’re…

A Farewell
When my friends said there was gonna be a farewell party, I thought it would be just lunch and a little chitchat. Turned out, it was more than just a lunch. The first surprise came after the waitress at Pancious got all our orders written down and left. Seno pulled out a black fabric from…

My Remedy
A few days ago I wrote about how I was so stressed and unable to do anything but watching Friends. Fortunately, there was one thing that I looked forward to: Mafia meet-up. Knowing that this would be the last time we hung out together before Didi and I leave for England, everyone made it (except…
