In The Sun

 

Nirvana - All Apologies (Sound Remedy Remix) by Sound Remedy

I still hate it when people remix songs I already know and love but I'm making an exception for this track because somehow it made me feel a bit less shit today

Sadness Is A Blessing

Nausea

I can brush off everything else but if this goes to hell I can't do anything except go down with it

Fungry

Have not been eating very well since the boyfriend left London...

Fantasizing about Iggy's and Salt Grill probably makes it worse :(

Settling In

I can realistically imagine spending 12 hour days in the library and getting my banal existence sorted out in all necessary ways within the month but no I am a little girl who has stupid feelings and would rather stay in bed and let my feelings paralyze me

That said I made it to the library in the end and god help me I will finish all these stupid things

Eating NYC

I have a ton of things to blog about but the first thing will be food because imma fat bitch like that!

I put it all on my NYC page as linked at the top of the page. I just spent like 2 hours doing it so go and read it, thx

It's just a bunch of food places I tried and liked for NYC, divided into two lists - Burgers and Other Stuff. That's kind of how I organize my eating experiences. This list is SO minimal because all I did was hang out in the NYU area, but I hope to add more stuff on it after more visits :)

This is how lame I feel writing about food

Bye Bye Summer 2011

OK I think this has been the longest summer of my life

London

Singapore

Taiwan

Hong Kong

New York City + Philadelphia

Summer Internship

In the end coming back to London just feels SO GOOD I have missed these streets so much. And now that all my buddies are up it's officially party time!!!

Also, this year I am taking these modules:

Ethics in Applied Economics

International Trade

Money and Banking

Advanced Class in Philosophy of Mind

Aristotle

Marxism

Global Health and Justice

19th and 20th Century Art in London Collections

Time to kick some ass

Leaving soon

We are truly the privileged lot

Cheap and Cheerful

Bummed about leaving NYC - - - 

Happy about going back to London ++++++++

Sad to say, but I kind of prefer London. It's kind of cool to come here for a quick fling but I just can't imagine living here. I don't know why!

Aside from eating and sleeping like a pig, I've been visiting museums/galleries the whole week. It is so enjoyable to look at beautiful things in beautiful buildings. All of this is doing me a lot of good and I'll definitely post what I can when I get back to Real Life, so stay tuned x 

Eleanor Put Your Boots Back On

You know, there are just those days where life actually feels like more than some random series of insignificant events. When you get through a lot of feelings and thoughts about life and death and meaning and love and truth... et cetera.

Today the two big things that happened felt the same, but weren't actually anything similar at all. One was riding an ancient-looking Coney Island rollercoaster where the scare factor came more from the incredible jerkiness of the seats rather than the actual speed/height. The thing I like about riding rollercoasters is the fact that no matter how much you anticipate the feeling of the drop, or how many times you've taken rollercoasters, the feeling is always fucking fresh compared to "real life". The only way to prepare yourself is to get in the seat and accept whatever happens. That's why I like riding rollercoasters. But more than that, what I love most about it is that after 2 minutes, it's all over, forever.
