Spent

Exams are over, finally and I am overcome with relief and exhaustion.
I'm so grateful to finally be able to sit quietly and just appreciate that for now, though not for long, I can do the aforementioned without being interrupted by guilt, the thought that there's something that needs doing.

Longing for

Simplicity; solitude; solace.

the house came alive in the heat

I can't wait for nights like these; too hot to sleep and too tired to cool down and still feeling the sun on my back long after it's gone down. Eating ice cubes and mangoes and swimming in Grace's pool and in the ocean. Getting sand in my bed and salt in my eyebrows.

Summer is a beautiful thing.

sigh

Exhausted, sore and sunburnt. I can't wait to fall into bed, with the sun still on my skin, a beautiful reminder of the months yet to come.

I am loved. I am content.

Feels like this.

in other news

Does this or does it not, look like there is a rabbit on my sandwich?

I was clearly surprised but this...

READY!

For a delicious three days away:

Warmth

Exhaustion and contentment: this feels like the end of Love Actually or the first chorus of My Two Cents, like I'm bursting with emotion. At the same time, a lot like this:

anticipation and excitement

Why, for Jindabyne, of course :D; I'm almost ready for the trip! I now need only a heinous pair of sunglasses, chapstik and the contents of my foodlist, written on a McDonalds napkin because Grace's dad didn't have any paper.

I can't wait to spend time with my close friends, and be reminded how much I appreciate the people that surround me on a day-to-day basis.

I'm also anticpating the growth of my hair, it's been a year since I was practically bald and I like to think I'm making excellent progress, dispite Sai's incessant laughter upon my mentioning this fact.
