On an airplane

I’ve been lazing about all day long… for the past four days. I was actually supposed to attend classes today but i still felt like my knee wasn’t ready to be subjected to four straight hours of sitting. And my next class is on Thursday so that’s an extra bonus day for another bout of lazing around.

I’ve watched two movies today already, the Mistress of Spices as well as The Lucky One. The latter was pretty bland but seeing as the novel was written by Nicholas Sparks, i can’t say i’m that surprised. I’ve never been a fan of his and i don’t think i will be anytime soon.

My best friend’s visa got approved which means she’s leaving tomorrow for Australia. I don’t know how i feel about this. Dread? Relief? Excitement? Happiness? Jealousy? Defensive? Or an eagerness for it to be all over? I don’t know. I ordered a gift for her online for her birthday and farewell but it never arrived. I don’t feel like sending her off because i know i’ll flood the airport. And at the same time i just feel that if i don’t send her, it’ll be like she never left at all. We’ve grown more and more distant over the years so if i’m not at the airport tomorrow, we can just resume texting once or twice every week like we’re not continents apart.

What do i do.
