Growing up

I can no longer wander aimlessly..
When was the last time I walked barefooted on a green pasture?
When was the last time I rode a bike?
When was the last time I...
I don't remember..
Now, every minute counts,
It adds up to the "future".

Sometimes, I really miss being that little girl in the big big world.

Are you there?

I...Wonder...wonder..and....wonder..

Views

...from where I used to live.

I miss walking on the scenic path on a daily basis.
I never knew how lucky I was till I moved out.
The unevent sidewalks, the decorative christmas lighting, and how beautifully the red leaves hang against the red brick wall...
I always say to myself while I was still a newbury street resident that I would take a picture of that.
When I finally brought my camera out, the leaves were all gone.
Some time around October this year, I finally took a picture of it.


...from where I live now.

No more unevent sidewalks,
Instead of being surrounded by no more than four stories high townhouses,
I'm now being surrounded by sky scrappers, and a view facing the humongous christian science park from my apartment.

I still miss living on Newbury Street.
But, I guess I'm getting use to the new one.
Clinging on to the past is always easier than facing the future, or even living the present.

Grow up child.

some random cheki moments.

November 16th, 2006. Thursday.
Location: Carter School ( music therapy observation site)

Just like every other thursday of the semester, I went for my practicum at Carter school, where I would observe and assist the music therapist in a one hour session with four children. Today was a little different. It was the thanksgiving lunch with the parents. Some parents were really cheery and chatty. Some just looked tired, and came just for the sake of coming..
Whatever it is, I am thankful for their never ending love for their children.

Looking at this picture, I'm thankful that this was not the last picture taken of you.
I know life is not easy, it has never been easy for you, since the day that you were born,
but thank you, thank you,
thank you for just being there.
I hope someday, my music will bring a smile to your face. *I hope it already has*

*on that day, C picked up the beanbag from the back of her neck and placed it on the tray!go girl!=)*

Blahbahbehbohboooo..

After missing in action for about a week, I'm back. No more rain, the sun is back, but the weather is getting colder.
The weather last week was gloomy, and I was moody. On sunday night, mom called and told me that the Europe trip itinerary has been confirmed, and so, I should start booking my tickets, and letting my lecturers know that I will be leaving a week before finals. Therefore, on the night itself, I emailed all my lecturers, letting them know that I will be leaving a week earlier. Most of them replied the following day with a positive answer! Me like positivity!*gRingrin*..except for my MTH for special education lecturer. Her answer was a NO!owww..and there goes my week, down the drain.
I kept praying that she will change her mind. And finally, monday morning came, this time, the sun shinning brightly, and I was early for class (how so very rare) = good sign!
After class, I approached my lecturer again, and this time, she told me that the chair of the music therapy department talked to her about my situation, but they still haven't arrive on a solution yet, and told me to email her later in the week.
I am definitely feeling some positive feedback here!yay~!
*pHew

The long weekend, Thanksgiving break is finally here!yAy~ What a relief.

Plans for the short break.
1. pre-Thanksgiving dinner at Ryu's place on Wednesday night.
2. Thanksgiving dinner party on Thursdayat my place with friends, and a special guest --> the uh-so-famous-Ms.-buffalo, Han!!=)
3. Midnight shopping on Black Friday at Wrentham, the one and only outlet mall around the Boston area.
4. More shopping in boston during the day, perhaps.
5. Catching up on movies.
6. Going for a show (maybe) on Saturday night? The Ricecooker band is playing in the Irish Pub at 10pm~! Cover, $5!
7. DimSum, anyone? food.food.food.
8. Karaoke??/eeee...i've been longing for this for quite some time.
9. yack.yack.yack.
10. study, on sunday!

When Monday comes, back to school. I hope that my MTH for special Ed class lecturer will confirm with me her final decision, letting me off earlier. *I will,..I will...okay, fine, I will kiss her feet if she granted my wish!*I have been sitting in front of my baby apple for more than 3 hours now, trying to book myself tickets for winter break. It is the time of the year for some travelling, I would say approximately 80 hours or more on the plane! Oh...but, it is all worth it! Europe + Home, here I come!!
Before that, projects, papers, and presentation!

Oh, how I love college life.=D

Wide awake

1a.m - intoxicated. Floating in la.la.land.

4.25a.m - lying on the bed, spaced out.

5.45a.m - Chocolate chip chocolate ice-cream with corn flakes & internet.

8 a.m - blogging

It's a long weekend, and I'm glad that it is here.
I need it, I really do.

Sometimes, I just wish that I'm not wide awake to the point where I could see every single flaw of yours.
