I was dragged back to reality yesterday.

For a good 12 hours, my head was in the clouds. I was in a state of euphoria.

There I was, sitting less than 10 steps away from someone special, watching her play the piano, tell stories about her cats, her love life, her songs. Oh I love the way her fingers strummed the guitar so hard that the pick broke, and the way her feet danced as she played the piano and sang her song...and who can forget that little frown that she wore on her face when she sang the songs that meant so much to her.

For a good two hours, I sat there, wishing time will never stop. It was an intimate concert. My first concert. The best concert.

:)

Like a psycho, I wanted to film her, to capture her in a frame, but my brain could not multi-task. My eyes were glued to her. I sat there, absorbing every moment, every song, every word, every smile, every eye contact...

SHAME ON THOSE PEOPLE WHO SAT THERE FILMING HER ENTIRE CONCERT. >:(

Well, that was 2 nights ago, when I finally met Rachael Yamagata for the first time. I pinched myself occasionally just to make sure I was not dreaming. It was brilliant. It’s hard to hate someone like her. :) Thank you. Thank you.

A talk with my SM about the costume designs jolted me back to reality. Deadlines. One night. Make it work. My supervisor told me to look at the entire industry instead of just one company. My heart did a somersault. I received data from my company that proved to be not very useful. SIGH. You mean... I have to consolidate all my research within a span of one and a half week, and write my 4000 word research paper in a week?!?!?!!? Happy Fools Day came too early this year. Mid term papers, tests... *gasp*

My consolation at the moment is that I am leaving this place soon.
“I’d remain here no more... FAREWELL.”
