Lists inspired by Sei Shonagon I
So I feel a bit like bootlegging Sei Shonagon today by creating lists. Enjoy!
Things that make me feel relaxed and satisfied:
-The way people say “dale” with a long “a”
-Free ginger lemonade from Natural Deli
Things that make me feel nervously excited:
-Finding kittens in unusual places
-Waiting for a friend to arrive and he or she is a few minutes late
-Movie previews
Things that make me feel mildly regretful:
-The thought of sleeping in my bed as I’m heading out to a club
-Not getting a MovieStar card on the Dia de la Recarga
Mild annoyances that ruin certain moments:
-Getting on a packed bus when there’s another, nearly empty one behind, then watching as that bus passes mine
-Waiting in line at the bank to break $100 while everyone ahead of me is performing long, complicated transactions
- Trying to catch the 130 bus- running and just missing it
Things that cause a brief moment of panic:
-When I hide credit cards/money, can’t find them, and think they’ve been stolen
-Hearing a noise that could be my host mom while washing my clothes in the sink (something I’m not supposed to do)
-Someone walking behind me on a nearly empty street, but it turns out to be a woman
