So I don't even know where to begin in terms of stories to tell. I think instead of looking to the past, I'll sit content in the present (a current mental practice of mine, getting better slowly but surely).

I've just eaten a Hoi sin noodle bowl, drinken a strawberry-banana smoothie, and read a little story by Carlos Fuentes about a twisted, never-aging demon woman who traps an aspiring historian/writer in her haunted house of horrors and flaming cats. No, this is in no way an embellishment of the story. It's called Aura. Check it out. Oh, and a goat gets it's neck slit by a 12 year old phantom girl who later seduces the aforementioned aspiring historian/writer. Yeah. the noodles and smoothie did very little to prepare me for that literary experience.

Aside from that, I'm jamming to Lykke Li and Florence, the newest additions to my repopulating itunes library (thank you old hard drive that decided to break beyond the point of information recovery...) On the plus side of the computer tragedy, though, I did get a spiffy MacBook Air. The object of my affection for the time being since there are no boys to speak of. Well, that's a lie. I COULD talk ad nauseum about boy experiences, but that is better saved for a night with much non-written communication and quite a few gintónics. Hendrick's, please.

I'm also glancing occasionally at the pair of fake glasses I bought at H&M last week. I took them off to go get lunch since as I entered my usual mid-day eatery I became self conscious and though the cute cashier who had never before seen me with my douchy hipster glasses on would think it quite, well, douchy. Speaking of H&M, are you all aware of just how much money I could spend at that store? Too much, in short. I did, however, find a store that might very well be a top competitor with H&M in terms of my expenditures. It's called Topman - based in the UK, but its fabulosity/hipster-chic style knows no bounds. And thanks to the wonderful invention of the internet and international banking, all their pound-priced products (aka twice as much in dollars) lay a mere point-click away.

So i recommend you all now point-click yourselves to this GEM. I'm off to class, y'all. Viva Lykke!
