Every single entry was clever and sweet, but Olivia charmed my slippers off with her endearing daydreaming:
As I sit in class, and my mind wanders father from the wonders of Chemistry and closer to the unknown of the future, the possibilities seem endless. I imagine living in New York, writing. I imagine being one of the rare few who are able to incorporate fashion and writing. I imagine being able to somehow afford Marc Jacobs, or clicking away on my laptop as I drink coffee in a cozy, chic cafe.
I imagine being surrounded by stores that I can only dream of now, by people from all walks of life, from all over the world. To me, this would be my perfect life. Oh, and thrown in a European boyfriend who happens to sing and wears a reasonable amount of (stylish) plaid somewhere in there.
When I finally come to the realization that I'm not in NYC, but in class being forced to wear a hideous plaid skort, and not a fabulous ensemble of designer clothing, I may just cringe a little. But, as long as I'm not in NYC, and still stuck in Chemistry, I'll keep on dreaming.
