treading the soft grass, wet from the morning dew

caught up on sleep last night. had 12 hours, but realized when i woke up that it was a waste of time. i could have used it for something else more productive.

aimee had trouble with her roommate, so i went over to keep her companied while she destressed herself by baking cookies. i guess there isn't much you can do if your roommate is just plain rude and inconsiderate, but looking at the bright side, the cookies made this world a much happier place.

i like walking on wet grass. not wet from the sprinklers that go off every night and for some reason always aim perfectly on people walking by instead of the grass, but wet from the morning dew. i'd like to think of it as a gift from heaven, a gift for those who like to wake up early in the morning, ready to face the world with one big smile, and never have fear of any obstacles or trouble that might be encountered that day. i'm not that kind of a person; i sleep late, i wake up late --- late as in sleeping at 4 and waking up at 11. that's why i feel delighted and grateful if i still get to see the leftover morning dew on the grassy field outside when i walk out of my apartment. it feels like god is being so kind as to letting a lazy person like me enjoy the gift that should belong only to those who are swift. and it also helps brighten my day when i actually have to wake up early for something that i don't feel like attending but is mandatory.

like the mandatory TA meeting on monday at 8.30AM in mayer hall, which is all the way across campus.

hope i get to see more morning dew on the grass; that'll brighten up my day a bit.
