(random fruit stand in the italian part of switzerland... the whole little town of lugano was so bright and cheery)

Just got back from a music-blasting, backyard badminton fest at Brea's house. I cannot think of a better way to spend a beautiful summers evening after two drama-filled days.

Yesterday marked the end of a long-standing friendship... four years gone, although I can't say I didn't see it coming. It's such an odd, and sad thing... I don't say this to air my dirty laundry, but just to mark my mood this evening as tired and contemplative, nostalgic, regretful... but ultimately satisfied that I respect my decisions.

Life is so raw sometimes.

*sigh*
