Wow its been a while. Longer than uniz's absence I think. Today is the day we lost an hour because of daylight saving. But because I'm so smart, I looked at my computer clock, laughed and said "Oh you silly computer, why do you show the wrong time?" and changed it to what I thought was the time. 5 minutes later, I sheepishly change it back as Linda informs me that we are supposed to be one hour back.
So what does one do with a 23 hour day? Nothing out of the ordinary it seems. I've started cooking for myself this semester - getting off the meal plan saves money and, to a lesser extent (though I hope more on this) calories. It also makes me appreciate mom's efficient and yummy cooking a good deal more - whoever knew that it was so much work cleaning up? Plus, I don't seem to have a large repertoire as yet. So some days I end up eating korean pancakes a lot -because they're easy to make and I've mastered the art of frying one up, complete with leftover chicken - in about 15 minutes. It also helps that there is just one pan to wash afterwards. My greatest achievement to date is the 30 minute tiramisu -granted, I had some help and there was refrigeration time after - I am still proud of that dessert.
A couple more months to graduation, a couple more weeks to spring break. The former scares and excites me, the latter keeps me going (for now). I cannot wait - face to face time is so precious to me now. And as I hear/read/see pictures about the travels of this year's juniors, I cannot help but feel a twang of envy. Perhaps it is my wanderlust, perhaps just the knowledge that I too, had that opportunity, but that time has passed and I am left with my memories. Is this how my parents feel when they look at the the things I do now?
2 weeks to go. |
