“There’s only two types of people in the world…
the ones that entertain, and the ones that observe.”
In 10 days, I’m going to show you how an event should be thrown. It’ll be great, and I’m really excited about it. A secret: yes, there will be cupcakes. As excited as I am, though, I’ve been pretty consistently tired for the last ~3 weeks, which, honestly, sucks. I’m looking forward to a time when I’m not falling asleep in yoga everyday…
Random life update: things are good. I was thinking about it a lot the last couple of days, and this first year post-college has taken me for a wild ride. I don’t even know what I expected, but it was nothing like this. I feel like things constantly change and I frequently have “SERIOUSLY?!” moments. Thank goodness human beings are extremely resilient. I wish someone would have warned me or prepared me for this, but then again, I don’t know how that could have happened. To seniors who are graduating: life is pretty much never what you expect it to be like, and you just have to roll with it. And when things suck, it helps to take yourself out of the picture, for a few seconds, and just laugh. Life can be ridiculous.
All I know is: I’ve grown up a lot. Possibly more in this past year than my entire college career, which I find mind-blowing: I thought college is supposed to be that time of growth and change and self-discovery. Not that I didn’t grow at Harvard, but I feel like it’s more in this year that I really started to know myself. It hasn’t been easy, but I figure out things about myself every single day. Overall, through the good and the bad, it’s been wonderful. Initially, I’ve tried to keep a record of crazy/weird things that happen to me, but after a while, it got too crazy to constantly record them because I just needed to…be. I definitely have a list, though, and maybe one day, when I am actually bored, I’ll start a book of vignettes…
