Last week of lectures & good news
This week was the last week of formal lectures before finals. Got a good grade on my microbiology paper…the professor’s words were, “Fabulous essay Evelyn—well done.” Sure felt good hearing that! Ended up celebrating the good week with Cheryl at a Vietnamese place for dinner (had tasty beef noodle soup) followed by gelato for dessert—hmmm good.
Life is full of sweet surprises...
Surprise 1: I was running late one rainy and cold morning and despite it all, I stopped for a brief moment and “wow,” there was just something so amazing and beautiful the way the rain fell that morning. The rain drops seemed to sparkle with sunlight and dance their way around me as they fell to the ground. In an instant, I was in another world.
Surprise 2: On another morning, I saw 10-15 Rainbow Lorikeets eating bread amongst 50 or so pigeons in the park. Their bright, beautiful, and small bodies were such a sharp contrast to the plump and poofy pigeons that normally feed in the park, and yet none of that seemed to matter…all of them ate peacefully.
Surprise 3: I got roses from by best friend for no reason at all. :) It’s been a good week. I thank God for life’s sweet surprises.
