Currently I'm reading Eva Hoffman's Time, an incredible book about how we experience time from bodily, psychological, cultural perspectives. Obviously these overlap tremendously.

So I've had a slow morning and so I've got to actually get down to writing instead of mourning about lost time.

Today I am going to enjoy life. I love being able to get up in the morning whenever I want. I love writing, reading and drafting a project that is mine. I love being able to learn spanish and meditate. I love the sunshine and the walks I can take nearby. These days are genuinely numbered come graduation. After a couple of neurotic weeks/months/ ( Read more... )
