monday blues.

archive favorite. 14th birthday from meg. hasn't been removed since. 

i know it's tuesday. but i have the chance now. i thought about chances today. i pass things daily that i wish i could write about + photograph. momentarily, i think well, i'll just come back to it. i'll capture it when i've found my net. but then i realize. inspiration is just for a second. if i were to come back, it would no longer inspire me. but if i can take my moment of inspiration captive, it will be mine. my prisoner forever. you have to snatch up that chance the moment you lay eyes on it. 

so let me take this chance to say that i had the monday blues in february today.

what i will remember about today:
  • took my first test of the semester. 
  • kink in my neck from a) studying or b) talking on the phone without hands. 
  • slip sliding on slush under a blue blue sky. 
  • annoying girls in comms. everyone in my row wanted to smack them upside the head.
  • the wilk terrace: packed + silenced for a press conference. 
  • i adore the university i attend. i adore my fellow students. 
  • a relaxing, cheering-upping night of econ, jazz, + laundry at kate + parkers. 
  • being annoyed by 'sweet escape' for the first time. roommates. + avril + hillary + lindsay. 
  • thinking for the countless(th) time: i wish i had my camera. i would take a picture of this.
planning a big event for friday. lots to do. i can't help but be excited against my own will. looking forward, despite myself. 



happy birthday meredith. college friend( ) is good to me. CARE.

hi. i relate so much to your post today. i can remember a day two autumns ago, walking on campus, and there were these tiny, little red leaves spread everywhere by the hard winds and varnished to the sidewalk by the flooding rain.
i didn't take my camera with me that day because i knew it would have gotten ruined. i miss these chances all the time, and it made me so happy to find you on the same page. i also lost my camera last friday. i completely feel your pain.
