21

Let's start by getting a good night's sleep.

Then, I can read, be productive.

Go to class, make a great presentation.

Shop for shoes.

Group meeting.

And then, mmm, yummy dinner.

But most importantly, mmm, amazing company.

And then perhaps we shall share a couple of drinks.

But before all that.

A good night's sleep.

7 Degrees

Hello October. Welcome. It started off with 7 days of sunshine, and then it rained. And now.. it's 7 degrees.

I'm wearing a wife beater, a long-sleeved shirt, a McGill hoodie.. a scarf, and my lovely pink fluffy slippers.. and my hands are still cold. Fall is here. It's time for sipping warm lattes and hot chocolates. Time to wrap yourself around your favorite scarves. Time for hugs. Time for baths. Time for staying in on a Friday night to bake cakes and watch movies.

It's time for the leaves to change colors. Climbing up a mountain would be wonderful.

Fall is good. Sweaters and scarves are good. Pretty leaves are good. I hope this lasts a little while before the first snow falls.

It's the first day of Thanksgiving weekend. It's the first day it's been this cold since the spring. It caught me by surprise. It's so peaceful on a morning like this. Heck, if I didn't have good company for a good coffee this morning, I would still have been curled up under my warm covers...

Mr. Curiosity

Hey Mr. Curiosity
Is it true that they’ve been saying about you
Are you killing me?
You took care of the cat already
And for those who think it’s heavy
Is it the truth? Or is it only gossip?
Call it mystery or anything
Just as long as you call me.
I sent the message on,
Did you get it when I left it?
See this catastrophic event
It wasn’t meant to mean no harm
But to think there’s nothing wrong is a problem.

I’m looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it’s making me cry
Love is a mystery. Mr. Curious, come back to me

(I’m) Mr. Waiting, ever patient can’t you see
I’m the same the way you left me
In a hurry to spell check me
And I’m underlined already
In envy green and pencil red
I’ve forgotten what you’ve said,
Will you stop working for the dead
And return, Mr. Curious,
I need some inspiration.
It’s my birthday
And I cannot find no cause for celebration.
The scenario is grave but I’ll be braver when you save me
From this situation laden with hearsay.

I’m looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it’s making me cry
(Trying not to ask why)
This love is a mystery, Mr. Curiosity,
Be Mr. Please Do Come And Find Me.

I’m looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it’s making me cry
This love is a mystery, Mr. Curiosity,
Be Mr. Please Do Come And Find Me.
Love is blinding if the timing’s never right.
But who am I to beg for difference?
Finding love in just an instant I don’t mind.

At least I tried.

I tried.

Wouldn't It Be Nice

Turn off my computer
And turn off my phone
Today I'm gonna live life alone
Hop into my shower
And sing myself a song.. or two
There's nothing else I need to do

I'm gonna take a little walk
And do a dance in the park
I'm gonna sip on warm lattes
In a sweet little cafe
Oh wouldn't it be nice
To live life this way everyday

Climb up the mountain
And wait for the sunset
I'm feeling just a little regret
Sink into the moment
Let me wait for the moon and stars
While I strum on my guitar

I'm gonna gaze at stars above
And think of people that I love
I'm gonna lay down, close my eyes
And let you take me by surprise
Oh wouldn't it be nice
To live life this way everyday
