I just had my phone interview with a teach abroad program in Shenzhen, China! I should know by the end of February if I got in. Eek! Cross your fingers for me!
J.D. Salinger, author of Catcher in the Rye and a great American author passed away yesterday. ):
i just came out of my photography class, where we spent the whole two hours of lab critiquing photos in the dark. (IN mandeville, by far the ugliest and creepiest building on campus)

i love home because it's constant.
no matter how crazy the stresses of school and work get, i can always count on my room to be there and my family to love me just the same. —for that i am forever grateful. i came home this morning to freshly made potstickers, made by mama tcheng, of course. the simple things in life are taken for granted way too often, i think. <3
on a slightly less happy note, i had a dental cleaning...

apparently, a few lecture halls flooded and professors were giving lectures in 3 inches of water or standing on a chair. i feel like i’m in one of those horrible “it’s-the-end-of-the-world” movies!

you wake up, look at your phone, and realize you it’s still SUPER early… giving you plenty of time to go back to sleep??

A turning point...
Let’s face it, I haven’t been having the best luck and I guess I really just haven’t been myself lately.
