Spent most of my day in Starbucks, chatting with old friends. Very pleasant. Elizabeth is back from Brazil, and it was so so very good to see her. She was my first friend when I moved here, and shares with me a romantic, idealist view on life, a tendency toward sarcasm, and a love of language (though hers exceeds her native tongue). She's really closer to a sister than a friend, and I am so glad to have seen her so unexpectedly. I only wish we had more time together before I had to go back to school. :(
