I made a vegetable soup last night, no recipe. It even tasted quite yummie. Just chop up potatoes and carrots, and boil them till they are soft and almost done, then add Ramen Noodles Oriental (+the spice included), fresh spinach, green peas and some fresh garlic, plus lots of salt, basil and pepper. Keep it all puttering away on medium heat, and you will have a nice little soup. Eat with some bread slices along with it. Soup-de-Loup, ta-da.
Blah. I finally caved in last night and bought "Nearly God" by Tricky (left my tape in Sweden).. I do like it. I don't care how much he bitches about it - I adore Martina's voice with his music and samples and voice, and wish they would work together aaalways. ForeverAndEverAndSugar. Beautiful. And I discovered that "Judas" by Depeche Mode was a bonus track on my copy. Joy. :)
In the record store, as I was paying for the CD, I suddenly heard a "Hi!" behind me. I almost didn't even bother to check if it was for me (though it sounded like it), because... well, let's just say that, uh, NEVER happens, but eventually curiosity made me turn around, and OO. There was Jonathan, one of the guys from rmt-a that I met at the second Tori Amos concert (and for about 3 minutes during the CarolinaCon). Heh. That was my first random stumble in while casually strolling around town I've had in months. Pathetically exhilirating.
I am feeling rather strange, at the moment. No, not bad-strange. More like remarkably good-strange. I feel... good. Strong. Psyched about .. nothing and everything. Is that not weird? Just right out of the blue good. Oh, I know. The other shoe is bound to drop down soon. Until it does, I will try and enjoy this peace.
Peace.
OhMyGhod, I think that is the word. I feel at peace with myself and my place right now. How... odd. Sappy. Ack. Something really big and surely distinctly sad must be travelling my way.
No. It is not that things are that perfect in my life. It is a usual mix of emotional emergencies and mental chills. But for whatever reason, it feels as if that is okay. Earp - this is an almost frightening feeling. I do not care what people say. Good is always followed by something bad. It has always been like that. Somehow, though, I feel as if whatever fire it is that is coming up, whatever door there is that is about to fall off its hinges and let one of its bones fly out my mouth.. it will be alright. Wow. This entry section feels cheesier than Gouda. Impressive.
Maybe it is just because the semester has just begun so I'm not terribly behind in every class I attend. Perhaps it is because I know I have money (in actual cash) to get me through life until at least late march (maybe even through the entire semester, if I start getting paid for my lab monitoring - I'd make $78/week and have a reason to spend time in the lab). It might even be because I have discovered that alone doesn't have to equal lonely. I don't know. I'll just try and hang on to this new found strength and mentality for as long as I can, and when the other shoe drops, I will try to just bite my lip real hard and wait for the next wave of this.
