april

things I loved in April:

• when our room is silent and Mariah bursts out laughing
• the Cal Crit, and that none of them crashed
  
• men in spandex
• Thai Temple, probably the best Thai iced tea I've ever had (the taste of cheapness is so, so sweet), yellow curry, mango sticky rice, Ching, and Liz
• Mariah for lending Kim her bike
• Amelie on the piano
• going no 'poo (more links)
  
• that the girl next to me in linguistics did not climb over me when she finished her midterm
• Everything Is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer
• Adaptation
  
• Iksoo, Iksoo speaking Korean, Iksoo again because oh my goodness he is adorable
• Nadine's skirts (1, 2)
  
• Shanghainese food
• that Vice magazine book Amman and Mariah got me (I would post pictures but my blog would probably be flagged as inappropriate or something)
  
• Bryan for lending me his sweatshirt
• Kim for being my accomplice in sneaking into the apartment behind some guy
  
• the guy in my ESPM class who switched seats so I could have a seat with a desk
• Thai Noodle, mango sticky rice, book club, tumblr
• Special Topics in Calamity Physics
• my hair, regardless of what it is doing, because it is mine and I love it
  
• ginger cats + Nutella
• tomatoes
• Bryan for getting the bee out of my room
• waking up in my underroos and not a heck of a lot else
• Disney songs on YouTube in other languages, because this has never been this exciting before
• amazing Earth Day dinner at the dining hall, involving salmon, asparagus, goat cheese, strawberry shortcake, and organic strawberries (Amman I realized sometime last week that I gave you whipped cream with my meat-ed fork but I don't know how to bring this up in conversation, so D: SURPRISE unless you didn't eat it)
• Daniel
• dressing Bryan for the boat dance, and that he has floral dress shirts, and that he would wear a silk scarf as a pocket square
• dinner with Marc... because it was easier than expected, which is always a nice surprise
  
• realllllly fun linguistics homework
• Theatre Rice, Ching, Joce, Jessie, Amanda, that no trucks went by between lines
• Atonement
• Carissa being so excited to tell me she lost her two front teeth, and going to my/her K-8 school carnival with her
• Sunshine texts and Connie emails
• my mama
  
• my seminar, Tom's Scottie, Blaze's bunny (!), and especially Freddy because he is hilarious
• Marc for watermelon
• Shiva and his British accent
