"I'm always in this twilight"

Writing my last of three research papers for the semester (all of which were due in a one week period! Come on, profs!)...

drinking hot chocolate+coffee from the Reslife Office

Can't stop listening to "Cosmic Love" from Florence and The Machine.

Can't stop thinking about my trip to Europe. I know it's not for like 18 months, but everytime I think about it, I get butterflies.

This is what I've been waiting for my whole life.

I keep thinking about this quote from Henry James' Portrait Of A Lady

"The world's all before us-- and the world's very large."

And I am so excited. And that word seems so flimsy for my real feeling.
