I had a wonderful day today.

Here's why:

woke up in time to shower, get dressed, eat delicious cereal for breakfast instead of grabbing a banana on the way out the door, and got to school on time.
i decided that spring should be coming soon and so i wore flats instead of boots or sneakers.
had the best lunch ever! all these professors and study abroad people are visiting our program, which is really annoying, but had its perks - we had amazing afghani food for lunch!
we went to the institute for the study of totalitarian regimes where they have all the secret files from communism available. we learned about the controversy of these files and saw spy photos of people (which strangely enough, are incredibly beautiful) including, surprise!, some of my theatre professor from the 80s. it was so fascinating and i'm considering doing something for my independent project with the photos.
went to a coolest flea market/thrift place in the old train station with sam and crystal...i found an overall-skirt and a spring trenchcoat for 3 dollars each.
had mexican soup for dinner at one of my favorite cafes
met sarah and all the professor people at a restaurant and got to eat a few bites of delicious cheesecake that i will dream about until i can go back and have it again for real
went to the COOLEST performance i've ever seen that took us all around an old building and up into the director's apartment that was the coolest little apartment i've ever seen, and it ended with them bringing out tons and tons of food and having a little party for the guests (there were only about 15 of us) and the actors, where i met some really nice people. and the director's husband is a really good photographer named dragon who i hope to learn photography from!

now glorious sleep.
