1. i’m reblogging this for many reasons. first, it is good and honest. second, i would like to someday write like this. third, in light of an upcoming transition back to california and the english language and the so-called “rest of my life,” i fear i will soon possess that same notion that none of it was real, that none of it truly happened. didion affirms the dreamer who can live a life that is somehow simultaneously intangible and yet the most important thing that’s ever happened. it’s refreshing.

    In this episode of binge drinking with Anna:

    • Going outside the city lines to drink with Americans and try to define “sassy” for a French kid
    • Bastille and the boys on boys on boys trying to get our attention.
    • Free tequila shots and talking to world travelers with no hair
    • Getting home at 5 and waking up at 10
    • Buying lots of oysters at the market while still drunk
    • Sausage sandwich and a galette

    Paris is on point right now.  But I’m leaving in a week soooo.

    love love, but also wondering if it’s questionable that we have installments

    in which i choose to stay in on saturday night to “do homework” when, in reality, i’m drinking wine on my bedroom floor watching the entirety of the fifth season of mad men

    We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma, and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive in the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive

    Thinking of this while I am studying abroad! Even though I’m doing lots of homework (okay, well more homework than I did last semester anyways) I am trying to take advantage of this place every day in little ways.
