I kinda have an obsession with Christian's old school dresses, it seems...

I feel like I've been constantly churning out bullshit creativity these past few years and it's been difficult to be in love with my work. It's funny because suddenly everything is really clicking inside me. Maybe it's been the internships I've had or the past two years of constant conditioning, but I feel like I may have conquered a mountain within myself to understanding where my life is going. Yesterday alone I worked on two projects that I've been really excited about; in my time at Pratt I don't think I full-heartedly have really thrown myself into my work. Maybe I'm changing or maybe I'm finding that I have less time to lose to apathy. It's exciting.

It's also really exciting to find that next semester I may be somewhere else, somewhere new to me. Lately, I've been spending a lot of time with my Italian exchange student friends and have really realized even moreso my need to leave the states for a bit. They're two of the most adorable, friendly, and wonderful people I've ever gotten to know. It's silly because I feel like I'm in puppy love with them (in the least creepy way possible, promise). Every time I say goodbye to them, I leave starry-eyed and Cheshire grinning thinking, "Did that really happen? Do they really exist?" It's amazing how people can have such profound effects on your psyche by being themselves... I hope that I can be that kind of person; I would love to leave someone breathless, speechless, and absolutely in friend-love.
