"Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never be fully okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too. If you're reading this, congratulations, you made it to today. You made it."

I bet you guys think I'm going to start typing some emotional post in conjunction with the quote above but no really, I just wanted to say "I SURVIVED TODAY" hahahahaha gotcha. Just trying to sound deep so I started with a... somewhat applicable.... quote — getting through Friday is a pretty big deal for me though. I'm always home late on Thursday night because dance ends as late as 11pm sometimes so I really dread having to wake up early for school the next morning to sit through a 3 hours lecture. But the enlightening thing is I only have one remaining lecture on Fridays now so I get to come home at 11:30am. Bliss is when you don't give a care about the world and take a damn good loooong nap after school.

School (woes) aside, the highlight of this week was crossing the border for a day trip with the girls from OG15!! We went on Wednesday so yay to traffic free roads. Half, or maybe three-quarter of my heart will always belong to Malaysia... for the yummy and cheap food duh. But mainly, this trip was enjoyable thanks to the lovely company I had, accompanied by retail therapy heheh. Need more of such therapeutic days!
