lying on my bed at 11 AM , staring at the stars hanging from my ceiling. thinking about life.

They just hang there, slowly spinning from almost imperceptible drafts. As I stare at them, still half-asleep and groggy, it is hard not to think about life.

I couldn't tell what I was thinking at that moment- whether I was happy or sad, frustrated or confused. It was just one of those strange moments of total contentment, ones that seem so simple and unassuming, until your life gets hard again.

Like the moments where you fish around in your bowl of pho for more meat, savory smells all around you. Like the moments where you cruise around Costco eating free cheese and sausage. Like the moments where you rock out to Party in the USA while eating dried mangoes. Facebook conversations about Harry Potter, slacking off during sit ups in PE and lying in the sun. It's the moments that sneak by you with barely a sound that resonate the most.

It's Daylight Savings and it's difficult not to look upon that one hour that seemingly slipped from our lives. The moment the clock struck 12, was it 1 AM? Was that one hour that should have been there, suddenly gone forever?

Time is ticking, and I hope I can make the most of it.

Note: I realize that this blog was supposed to address our awkward moments in life and such and it's quickly become a place to vent all my emo feelings. LIFE IS TOO BUSY TO BE AWKWARD RIGHT NOW!! *sigh
