It is my last day of summer, and instead of being out drinking Starbucks (what I should be doing), I am indoors packing all of my entire everything into trash bags. It is my fault. I waited and procrastinated until all my packing got squeezed into this one day. So, to de-stress I am (of course) listening to Beyonce and writing a blog post. I created a collection of haikus that bid farewell to summer, say hello to fall quarter, and talk about a whole bunch of other stuff that is happening in my UCLA life.
Underwear in bed
Glass of ice water with me
Am blogging, boo yeah
‘Twas this time last year
That mom was helping me pack
All of my clothing
Beginning of school
Excited for Bruin Bash
Who’s Kendrick Lamar?
Move-in will be fun
Already know my RA
Her name is Ann Du
Face trauma summer
Broken nose and wisdom teeth
Luckily still cute
Already miss Mom
Parent’s Weekend comes up fast
But why Halloween?!
Last year’s Halloween
Wore a camouflage t-shirt
Was an “army guy”
This year’s Halloween
Will be wearing chef costume
Make microwaved tea
Excited for class
Get to use my brain again
But please not too tough
Stoked for the dorm food
Want Cafe 1919
Caprese salad
Walking everywhere
Walking to and from Westwood
Walking to class, too
I’ve missed you, Bradley
And your fabulous courtyard
Study date soon, yes?
Finally, goodbye
Thanks for the fun, San Jose
This is a baiku
I didn’t mention Royce Hall, even though I miss that building a lot, too. I am so happy that summer is over and that I get to go back to one of Earth’s best places (I hate claiming anywhere is the best place on Earth), and do a bajillion 8-claps. UCLA, here I come!
