The Night Sees Red

I sat my second last final today (Statistics yum) bright and early at 8:45, after which I slowly- and I mean very slowly- caught a train and bus to R's house where I promptly and efficiently collapsed into bed and slept for many hours. That is what you get when you crawl into bed at 5am the night before... only to wake up an hour at later at 6. Good one Annie...

When I was going to North Sydney station to go home at like 9pm, we passed a night-international-food-market type thing outside Stanton library, complete with a jazz band playing (I think so anyway, they weren't very good), hot food stalls and fairy lights. Unfortunately, as we had no money I just sort of stood around like a cool person sniffing the wafts of quesadillas, dutch pancakes and cooking okonomiyaki. People were strolling through the markets, and there was quite a crowd sprawled on the grass listening to the live music, so it was such a nice vibe.

Right now, I feel a BIT more relaxed/stress-free because of the trip home on an empty train, receiving some unexpected news and the fact that the next final is in a week, which leaves for some breathing room.

Also, completely unrelated: 100 followers!! How?! So thankful to each and everyone of you for sticking with me and reading my rambles and enduring my incessant photo-taking of inanimate objects. THANK YOU!

Sleep well tonight, everyone :)

    Your blog is a new discovery for me. I'm really enjoying all the beautiful photos you've posted along with the stories to go with ! I'm quite liking the graffitied windows. Keeps the lights out and makes for a snoozier transit.

    Congrats on finishing your final! I'm sure all that studying paid off. I wish I ran into international food markets. Australia seems so much cooler than here.
