right now I am super homesick but I know in like a month once I've had time to settle down in our house I am ALSO going to be super homesick
for shanghai
help I'm having feelings
--also I'm having a Kanye West situation. In that I accidentally started listening to his new album and wow it's pretty awesome. THINGS I DID NOT KNOW I WOULD BE A FAN OF: 2013 EDITION.
and I don't know if I'm imagining it or what, but it seems like every cafe in shanghai has better-tasting coffee than they do hot chocolate
so I've been drinking a fair amount of coffee because I need an excuse to sit at a table and study/internet for three hours
...caffeine does basically nothing for me, as previously suspected. (I got caffeine jitters once for about two minutes when I had coffee on an empty stomach, and then was immediately super tired.) it's nice to have this confirmed, I guess. But I've been mostly drinking the ones with lots if caramel and milk, so they taste pretty decent.
--though what I've really been drinking is overpriced fresh fruit juice. I keep telling myself that an expensive fruit juice addiction is better than an expensive alcohol addiction, so I can feel better about drinking so much of my money. (Fresh mango juice is amazing, btw.)
I've been feeling super down a lot lately, and it feels like a big departure from my usual baseline, but I was looking at some old DW entries from a few years ago and apparently now is not much different than any other period of my life except that I've been cleaning/internetting/shopping more and writing/violin-playing/cooking less. Hmm. I wonder if there's any kind of sustainable fix, or if this is just how things are.
SO. I want to write more (short) stuff! If y'all have advice/suggestions/fic-a-thon recommendations/prompts/things you want to see written about, it's all welcome.
