So a couple of people in school said it'd be neat if I had some of my favorite music up on the blog. Now while I really, really don't want to subject you all to the horror of autoplaying music, I've embedded a playlist on the side bar! I'll be adding stuff to it as I … Continue reading Music Playlist: by – sorta – popular demand
Short Note – Dreaming about Boston
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with need for Boston. I can’t sleep, even though I’m fatigued, I can’t rest though I need rest. I’m just reinforced with this desire, this all-encompassing motivation to do something, anything that will make me feel as if I’ve secured that part of my future.The fact that I’ve seen Boston for myself - … Continue reading Short Note – Dreaming about Boston
Short Note: November
I've always loved November. The promise of cold mornings and nights, of incoming desert winters, the crunchtime in regards to exams, a general nostalgia that lingers in the air. The smell of the beach. The fog over Marina. The signs of which are already so apparent this morning, at 7:30am, in October. My favorite sight … Continue reading Short Note: November
Ode to Boston
Anyone who has ever spoken to me for more than five minutes knows how much my soul craves a city that I had never in my life seen but which I nonetheless called home. My love affair with this city, with Boston, began a few years ago after having my heart broken by New York … Continue reading Ode to Boston
Short Note: Science VS Art

Do you genuinely believe you're better than other people just because, say, you study biochemistry instead of art history? Or that you're more "enlightened" than the rest of … Continue reading Short Note: Science VS Art
The Great North American Tour – America!

For instance, I only allowed myself to get excited about going to America once my history exam (which was the day of my flight by the way) was over and done with. Prior to that, … Continue reading The Great North American Tour – America!
A reminder to myself
The sudden realization that I am loved and cherished enough to be thrown a surprise birthday party for - no matter how late the realization - makes me so overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude.

Write what you know
As I was reading The Fault In Our Stars by the incredible John Green, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by his vivid description of Amsterdam; it wasn't just your run-of-the-mill, "What a beautiful city!" but a deep, intimate portrayal of a place known by a man who loves it. It makes sense - John, … Continue reading Write what you know
Oh yeah so I’m in America…
