once again attempting to blog late at night = dumb.
I can't even keep my eyes open.

but...

- I love my life, everything about it I love. I think I've finally learned to live in the moment despite my tendency to want to plan ahead... I've learned to make "flexible plans". And I'm starting to get very excited about my upcoming travel plan, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

- clubbing over the weekend was fun. I haven't had that much fun clubbing in a while and I must say, it's not where/what you do, is who you do it with. I miss them girls and I think we will try to meet up more often. I miss it, the high the energy and the laughter; maybe I just miss being really silly.

- old friend in Taiwan shared with me that I've recently gained a fan, an admirer of my work. HAHAHAHA that's so funny, but I'm so thankful to hear that b/c that's what's keeping me going. Having ppl appreciating my work, even if it is just one person actually means a lot to me. B/c of it I'm motivated to do well, to make improvement. It's nice to get this kind of encouragement from time to time so I know I'm not completely wasting my time here.

- This long weekend's great. I'm so glad that we have this long weekend THIS weekend, I did absolutely nothing but it feels great! It's exactly what I needed, what any UCLA extension students need. I'm not sure how others do it but I need my vacation once in a while. Every part of my body is protesting against this system and is screaming for a vacation. A real one... one where I can really sit back and relax and not worry about some deadline on a weekly basis, one where I can pack up and leave the country for a while... yeah.... leave... and be somewhere else on a sandy beach... see my mind goes right back to that exact location that exact image... gosh I really miss Bali Island.

Tired....
but had a great night. I think falling isn't so bad afterall.
