backseat of my mind

I don't know why this song seems summery to me:


Stop the clocks and turn your world around
Let your love lay me down
And when the night is over, there'll be no sound

Lock the box and leave it all behind
On the backseat of my mind
And when the night is over, where will I rise?

What if I'm already dead, how would I know?
What if I'm already dead, how would I know?

Lost inside my head behind a wall
Do they hear me when I call?
And when the night is over, where will I fall?
And when the fight is over, where will I fall?

But if I'm already dead, how would I know?
But if I'm already dead, how would I know?

Stop the clocks and turn your world around
Let your love lay me down
And when the night is over, there'll be no sound
And now the night is over, there'll be no sound
And now my fight is over, there'll be no sound

Had to attend a presentation back at university so might as well spend a little time downtown. Flowers are blooming everywhere! Such a shame that I didn't have time to visit High Park during sakura season. So envious seeing friends' photos on fb xD


Outside of Koffler.

Met up with mom afterwards for a quick lunch and some shopping. Went to Burrito Bandito, which calls itself "Toronto's best burrito".


Chicken burrito.
It does taste pretty darn good. Portion is generously sized too with no additional charge for toppings, and there's a lot of choice for the main meat filling. However, I found it bit too oily and super messy to eat.

Then, we headed to Winners to walk off the meal. Shopping list of the upcoming month is a chambray shirt, trench coat (to replace by beloved tweed coat that I forgot at Chestnut @_@), and plain black leather loafers. Did end up purchasing the chambray shirt, but found something much, much nicer:


The mirrored heels! Dying...
It's soooo gorgeous and elegant/many other adjectives of praise. Too bad it's way out of budget at $500. Let it be added to the list of luxury purchases for when I get a job xD

More signs of spring! Flowers are always a good idea xD


Otherwise not up to much. Watching Steins Gate due to strong recommendations from a friend, so far it's weird haha.

Will never get tired of watching sunsets, nor playing with photos of them in PS.

Layered 3 different shots together with a bunch of adjustment layers.

Preferred food for the summer: the panini.

So convenient to eat
A multitude of combinations
Bread!
etc...


From la prep at north york center. I was surprised that it was this good. The bread was chewy, overall not too thick, ingredients seems fresh and really flavorful. 

summer to do

What I miss about chestnut: the awesome, awesome water pressure.
But it seems like a fair trade for good tea, the smell of freshly cut grass, and most importantly sunshine! As much as I like the skyscrapers downtown, they block all the sunlight "orz

A day of summer has past and I've done close to nothing :D which I guess can count as destressing/relaxing. However, I have/had ambitious goals so up tomorrow will be a master list of summer to dos. Will be fun seeing how much of the list will actually be complete by the end of summer.

So I'm back home, back in my spot on the comfy couch overlooking the balcony window. Seems like I haven't actually left, and the 8 month spent at university was a long dream that I didn't happen to forget when I woke up.

Such a weird feeling haha.

Miss having my friends around already though @_@" No more being able to walk to each other's rooms in PJs. Though now I'll actually be able to get a good nights sleep.
