this girl's the resurrection
Aug. 25th, 2006 01:28 pmSo, I'm in British Columbia. Have been for a while now, but have fallen behind in my online stuff, while I was settling in to my new place. (I still need to catch up on email and answering LJ comments, gomen).
I finally read Under the Tuscan Sun on the plane up here and a certain passage about uncertainty made me think: ( What if... )
I made my way up to Simon Fraser yesterday, and was struck by the openness of the architecture, despite the fact that it all looks like New Brutalism monstrosities from the outside. But it's strangely beautiful instead, with open courtyards between the buildings, surrounding me with mountains and light. I had a leek and feta quiche and organic coffee at a place called Nature's Garden and knew myself to be on the West Coast. The lab PI was very welcoming and the science building reminded me of the one at Trinity. Be bold, I tell myself, work hard, and look for happiness.
