Well well well!! Today was one of the best days I’ve had all year, I might have to say. I felt confident without effort because of the affirmation surrounding me.

Also I’ve developed the theory that third times a charm. There’s, only naturally, a fella for whom I’ve had feelings since I first saw him at Tisch. I saw him once last week and didn’t say hello. Then, again today while walking to lunch and I didn’t say anything. Just pulled my hair back to see if he’d say anything. Then, the third time, without any fear or hesitation I saw him from behind and just  said his name. Oh girls if I could find the right words to describe the look we exchanged and the hug he offered, I’d be in shock. It was complete and utter shock but everything au natural. Then, of course, I ruined it with my talking and overeagerness because I just kept talking and mentioning Valentines day and being a fool.

Regardless, I feel good about it. Of course I want to go from 0 to 60 but whatever, that’s just my inherent nature.

Then we have more just surprises with every turn, friendly faces, flirtacious glances and smirking that just made every second of the day worthwhile. I am beyond beyond beyond happy about everything!

And that’s what makes me a tad sad to leave for town this weekend. Today was also the first day that reminded me why leaving New York will be a sad event. Truth is, this environment where I know people is rare and it won’t last through til next year. Time goes on, so I’ll definitely appreciate the time while I am living in it in the now.

All the while, I’m trying to write for my feature and tv pilot and this semester is becoming overwhelming as midterms roll around the corner but I’m happy now, which is a wonderful feeling that I missed feeling 

People be talking about Venezuela and Caracas arepa bar on the subway. Yes!!!
