twenty-eight: morning musings

It is almost 10:00 AM and again, I am hungry. Well, that usually seems to be the case when I return from super-long walks. I like super-long walks, for the reason that I get to listen to all 277 (now 268) songs on my iPod. Meaning, I must add a bucket load of new music to my iPod before I leave other wise I shall go insane from listening to the same songs whilst abroad. (Yes, I did just use the word whilst.)

Today was the day of cancellations: Dani couldn't go to the Art Fair and Ryan had to take care of his dad. Or something. Either way, it helped me get up early. I need to be more regular with the little yoga I do... but I enjoy meditation much more. I think I am getting a little better at focusing-slash-clearing my thoughts? I'm not sure. I've been thinking, "There is no I, just One" and that has helped immensely. And then I pretend that all distinctions are blurred, if that makes sense. Trippy, I know, but... okay, I won't blather on meditation, or it will turn out like one of my first posts devoted to my amazing Tevas.

What else? I must continue and finish packing tonight and perhaps clean the random messy corners of my room. The overall feeling is of neatness -- until you look in the corner between my sofa and desk. Yikes and yowza.

My tongue still remains burnt from my pizza jaunt with Dani and the sister last night. I was just so hungry and thus paid the price.

There is nothing else of note to say right now, so I will end this post. Maybe write more later.

Ta.

  1. The top of my mouth is still burnt as well! But the pizza was pretty good!

summer 2009, thus far, has been a fascinating, rewarding adventure. studying abroad in indonesia for a month, i returned home to thereafter go to chicago for an amazing spiritual retreat for young adults. the combination of the two has me looking at life with a fresh perspective.

as i leave for india, i'll definitely continue to keep track of my experiences there, here! i'm a huge fan of the old school pen-and-paper journalling, but blogging is tons of fun too -- and a great way to stay in touch with everyone at home.

hit me up with a comment -- i'd love to hear from you all!

peace & love,
Nina
