a letter #2.





Jake,

i can't believe this is the first thing i'm doing since i've reached my apartment. but it's for you so why not?
i've read your letters a dozen times since i got it. on the plane, in transit, in the cute yellow cab and before i wrote this. i cried the first... second and i don't know which other time i've read it. yes, i cried and no, it's not a lie to make you worry if it's any good.
it is, the best you've ever written.

NY has been nice so far, but it feels a little empty cos' i haven't got anyone to share the excitement with. i'm kinda worried about the people i'd meet when orientation starts. it's like, i haven't really 'made' friends in a while since i've been hanging around the same people (especially you) forever. obviously nervous if i would find a friend that'd click with me just like you and i.

Science and Faith



You won't find faith or hope down a telescope
You won't find heart and soul in the stars
You can break everything, down to chemicals
But you can't explain a love like ours.
-The Script

I listened to an entire album for the first time
cathartic.

school's ending soon and i've been doing nothing there except practice for oral presentation, play lots of monopoly deal during insanely long breaks and on friday, had a grey's anatomy marathon with the two balls.

p.s, i wanna carve a pumpkin

my mouth is dry with words i cannot verbalize.

you speak as though i'm nothing
while slyly drive razor blades deep inside

i pretend nothing's happening
even as you remove them and stitch me up again

i am in pain, if that's what it's still called

if that's what it still feels
