Lavendersong

Old friends... Sat on their park bench like bookends. Evening! I just had the privilege to have a good, very old friend over for dinner. I've known her since we were ten, but we haven't met for like two or three years because we went to universities in different cities and stuff. Thus, this night was all about catching up re life; school, job, (ex) partners - everything. It was a very still and warm evening.

She just left, and I'm sitting here feeling calmly happy. Somehow, sometimes, especially after coming home from a long trip filled with meetings with new people, places and new life experiences - meeting someone who truly knows you, or at least grew up with you, is plain awesome. There are always things about you that someone you've only known for half a year or so can't possibly know, and that's exactly why I like spending time with someone who has known you since you were kids.

Anyhow, we've both been in Shanghai for a long (but not at the same) time, so that was a good and grand topic. We looked at some of my 10 000 photos (yes I know) and now I figured; why not upload some of them here for all the world to see? Hahaha who am I kidding...

All of these are taken at Summer Palace in Beijing, China, August 2008. I'll upload some more eventually...

Until next time,

Lavender
