Look with your eyes, not with your hands.


Such a minute fraction of this life do we live: so much is sleep, tooth-brushing, waiting for mail, for metamorphosis, for those sudden moments of incandescence: unexpected, but once one knows them, one can live life in the light of their past and the hope of their future.

Faith in Humanity Restored.

On face, a sentimental attachment to a material object is a bad thing. I was reminded of this lesson when I lost one of my favorite earrings (a pearl) the evening of the debate tournament and I was sure it was lost and gone forever. Well, faith in humanity and a new confidence in my drunken self (on auto-pilot) to put my earring in my jewelry box where it actually belongs. Now if I could only find my tweezers, the second most essential material object in my life. I don't know how I've survived four days without them.

Time to pick up the grad school recs and read one bizilllllion pages. Viva la examination!
