3 years agojust found this and forgot i had written it:
8 jan 2009
on the plane to nyc at the moment. i think i would be terribly excited right now if it weren’t for the fact my eyes burn from the lack of sleep. i tried watching the sunrise from the window next to me but i’ll be damned if that didn’t burn them even more.
i’m watching the flight attendants instead. one particular lady with tina turner hair and dark skin is someone i’m secretly praying that i never have to encounter if i do end up following through with my plans of being a flight attendant.
crazy, crazy woman with even crazier hair to boot.
i like it all though — the bustle of the airport, the way it smells. i think it’s interesting to watch how people react to one another, especially on the same plane. we’re all going in the same direction, on this brief same path and i just want to lean over to the asian boy next to me and ask where is he going. if his prospects in nyc are as exciting as mine.
