A Month's Progression

As I'm nearing the end of this month, May, I spent a good hour or so in reflection. I had seen so much anxiety, doubt, and misfortune over this month I forced myself to rethink all of these moments and put them in a new light. In the end, it turned out that the easiest and most comical way for me to make light of my May was to highlight all that really went down. At then end of my list I realized that it wasn't all wasted time. So, here it is for all of you who were wondering on the other end what the hell I have been doing with my life this past month:

(list goes in order of occurrence and is based on how I will remember my May)

1. I graduate! (almost)
2. Get called 'unemployed'
3. Forced to renew my passport, quoted June 3 return date = Stuck in Singapore for 22 days
4. Move into local hostel (un)conveniently situated in the middle of wanna-be India; take on 9 new room mates
5. Go to first legit job interview wearing 4 inch heals (and run away from having to accept/decline job)
6. Find out graduation is postponed, and hence so is title of 'unemployed'-- Officially in the 'student' box again (good news)
7. Got my hena did where Beyonce did!!
8. Computer dies once and for all(bad news: lost all my photos from months of travel)
9. Email Steve Jobs in light of above situation (still waiting for response)
10. A day later, Ipod dies
11. Beloved Ear phones found suspiciously missing one ear
12. May 28, passport is back three days early!!! Officially a free person of the world again (very good news)
13. Lost travel journal (includes memories and moments of travels over the past 5 months)-- mostly concerned about whose reading it right now (sorry it's rubbish!)


Hena on my feet!!
Beyonce had her hand done, for 5$.
I had my foot done, for 10$.

So there it is, it's been one hell of a ride.
Only one more day of May.
At this point, I don't think anything could possibly add to this list of gains and losses.
