dew on my shoes

Pulled the first all-nighter last night since the last time i tried to sit down and do some blog writing. One of my friends pointed out that i am the only person he knows who pulls all-nighters after college. Problem is, do not have a laptop and have to borrow school’s laptop because can not think properly in internet cafe setting with indo remix of umbrella ella ella eh eh going on and on and usually there are kids peering curiously and unabashedly over my shoulder at whatever i am typing. And have not been able to borrow school laptop for awhile (one went missing) and by chance was able to have it for one night only so stayed up.

stayed up until 5:30 and then went on a run. I dont know whether it was the sleep deprivation, many cups of black ginger tea, ridiculously early hour, or what, but WHUSH everything was LUSH vivid. Saw so much more than usual, all the small things (one of my students’ favorite songs) that usually fade into the noise. Must really try to go running in the morning more often because there is less honking, more praying, less soccer-playing suitors, more tai chi swooshers, less vroom vroom, more boom! bright red blossoms underfoot, shaken down by the rains.

Will try to get more dew on my running shoes from now on.
