My yoga practice - As my schedule crams up with so much to do between school and work, I am falling back into my yoga practice. I am finding solace and comfort in my practice. It is so good to have an hour where I am not thinking of anything else. No other commitments, nowhere else to be but these four walls and only the bodies in this room. Only my body and its movement at present. For once, nothing else exists in the world. This is an addictive feeling - to feel actually present instead of stretched between here and there, now and three weeks from now, now and a year from now. We spend too much time existing where we do not. It is refreshing and so necessary to for once be where I am.
Uncle Tetsu cheese tarts - I am trying not to indulge in these too much but it is hard. They are sweet but with a saltiness to them. Creamy and rich. It is something that engulfs your whole mouth, your whole palette. A single tart will be enough for one sitting. I usually slice it in half to split between two as to not overindulge. It is hard not to constantly go back for more. I prefer the original.
September has been a month of trying to land on my feet. After being away from any kind of school environment for two years, I've been trying really hard to hit the ground running. I'm trying really hard to stay on top of all my work. Some days are more successful than others. Some days, I run to my friend Ellen and Will nearly crying. Or sometimes, crying. It hasn't been easy finding that balance but I am trying. I think it has been OK so far. September is for starting anew.
