Reading, End of Work, and Then Some.

In 4 hours, I will officially be done with work.

How excellent.

I spent nine week, five days a week, for 8.5 hours in an office doing random shinanigans. And today is my last day.

I had some hella good tempura at some small store that only sits 12 people called Ten-Asa and now I feel like a beached whale. No, that's a lie. I don't quite feel like that, but close enough, I suppose. Nonetheless, I'm full, sleepy, just finished another book, and it is officially 1:30 pm, which means really, in four hours, I will be outta here.

That also means that in less than a week, I will be back in California.

My gosh, this summer went by quickly.

Speaking of quick summers, I think it's about time to update ye ol' reading list again.

(sorry, I'm feeling rather British right now on the account that I've just finished a book written by a Brit)

Ze Ol' Reading List
  • One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
  • A New Earth by Eckharte Tolle
  • Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger
