1. Who was the last person you forgave? How long did it take you to forgive them? I haven't had to forgive someone in a while; I don't get in much conflict anymore.

2. Is going mushroom hunting in the woods something that would interest you? No. Don't mushrooms like, run the risk of being super deadly? I don't have nearly enough knowledge about them to identify which ones would be safe to touch and such.

3. What is your favorite junk food? How about your favorite health food? Mozzarella sticks, arancini, pork isaw, French fries. Favorite health food...uhhhhh idk do salad wraps count? Haha they're my favorite thing to get these days! Saladstop has this Caesar wrap that I have probably at least once a week at this point.

4. Are you listening to anything right now? Do you normally listen to music while you take surveys? No, I prefer it to be quiet now. Sometimes I do but most of the time I find it really distracting and I end up taking like, double, triple the time I'd otherwise normally take doing surveys.

5. What were you doing the last time you hung out with a friend? It was well over a month ago but I saw my closest friends for a Christmas gift exchanging + dinner. We were supposed to head to a café after to continue talking, but while walking we saw this vapery(?) - idk what to call it, but it's a coffee shop that also sells vapes and allows you to do so inside - and went there instead and chatted it up with the owners since we were the only customers there.

Reena had to leave after an hour and the vapery was closing soon too, so Angela, Hans, and I went to Anj's house so we could TALK SOME MORE. Hahaha. We only see each other, like, quarterly now, so we're usually stuffed to the brim with stories when we have the time to see each other.

6. Is there anything about you that might cause others to dislike you? I tend to choose who I want to talk to, so those I might not approach may find me aloof and uninterested. It's because I am tbh, lol.

7. Is there anything you’re really particular or specific about, anything that has to be done a certain way every time? I'm very particular at work. I like things presented or explained a certain way; and I have the tendency to either overhaul a Powerpoint if I think it's lacking in how it's been made, or chime in for someone if I think they explain something in a way that I think is poorly.

8. Are there any chores you need to get done today? Just get rid of the mug and glass that's been sitting in my room and wash them.

9. Where was the last place you went shopping and what did you buy? I went to Landmark to buy a pastel gown + heels for the 18th birthday party of a family friend that I'm going to later this evening.

10. What was the last big change you made to your physical appearance? Dyeing my hair back to purple a couple of months ago.

11. Are you more likely to shut people out of your life or try to fix things no matter what? I will cut people off.

12. Where was the last place you went out to eat? Is going out something you enjoy or would you rather cook at home? To Red Keep last weekend just for some little me time. I had a spamsilog and a white mocha, which I had while filling in my journal and reading my book.

I like eating out because I can't cook, but I limit it because doing that everyday for every meal is super unsustainable. Plus with me resigning and not having an immediate job replacement, I'm gonna be a bit of a hardass on myself not to spend much until I can find a new source of income.

13. If you have any pets, do they seem to notice when you’re sick or sad? Not really, but it's okay with me. Kimi though is a different story; he liked keeping to himself but he would walk towards me if he can sense that I'm stressed or close to tears.

15. Is anything you’ve done lately going to matter in a year? Yeah, absolutely.

16. What was the subject of your last phone call? It was a guy dropping off something at the office and needing to be guided STEP BY FUCKING STEP to get there. I don't have problems helping out people with directions, but I've also just never dealt with someone who needed to be told every turn, every stop, every move... and especially over the phone where I wouldn't be able to see where he was standing haha.

17. Are your hobbies something you’d rather do alone or with others? On my own. I don't like going to museums with someone else just cos it makes me super self conscious? Like I can stay 3-4 hours in one museum alone and I'm also not a big talker when I'm immersed, so I might just end up boring a companion to death.

18. Is there anything about yourself that you’re trying to improve? Trying to be gentler towards my teammates as I know everyone is overwhelmed and tired as it is.

19. What are you doing today? I went to the dentist and had a horrible experience because they were 1 hour late to our appointment; got a big order of flavored fries and corndogs to cheer myself up after the grueling wait; took a nap; and now I'm just killing time before I'd need to get up and prep for the debut I'm attending tonight.

20. What did you dream about last night? I can't remember. But in my nap an hour ago I dreamt that we went to Japan, but it was an overnight stay LOL so I spent more time at the airport than I did in the country.

21. When was the last time you visited relatives? Do you see extended family often? It was during the whole Christmas/New Year timeline when we drove out to see different sides of extended family. I'd say these things happen pretty much only during the holidays, but occasionally in the middle of the year when things end up being planned we'd also visit family then.

22. What was the last relaxing thing you did? Last weekend was a major Chef's Kiss weekend. I'm amazed at how peaceful it felt and the calming effect it had on me. Saturday I went to Red Keep where I dined al fresco, wrote in my journal, and read my book until the sun set and I couldn't read anymore. Sunday I spent the afternoon in UP where I sat under a tree and alternated between people-watching and finishing my book as the afternoon rolled on.

23. Will this weekend be better than last weekend? Nothing will top the past weekend, I'm afraid.

24. When was the last time you were there for a friend? Just the last couple of weeks. Angela's morale has been down what with the pressure of studying for the architecture boards, and I've been there to listen but also give advice if she needs it.

25. Do you have any jewelry you almost never take off? At one point it was the necklace Reena gave me, but it started to itch so I've removed it for now.

26. What are some of your favorite words? Poignant, eloquent, vivacious...and indicted and viscount just because I'm fascinated with how they're both pronounced nothing like they're spelled lol.

27. Do you have any journals from when you were younger? If so, do you ever go back and read them? No I think I got rid of them years ago because they were all pretty embarrassing to me and it's not really something I'd want to keep.

28. Are there any holidays you used to celebrate, but no longer do? I no longer observe Christmas for the Christian reason. I'm just here for the food.

29. What was the last occasion for which you dressed up? A family friend's daughter's 18th birthday party, from which I just came home actually.

30. Is there anything you wish you could say to anyone? I wish you could trust me more because today was very telling of how much you don't, and that kind of stung.

Warrior blushed as he felt Reena's embrace. "I could be better, but I'll live, thank you." The lycanthrope responded with a small smile.

"Anything you need to get off your mind? You know I'm always here if you need a chat." Reena smiled back, kissing his cheek softly.

Tad and Rini meets Jessie wakins

@jakkiisthatboy2

Reena and tad walk up into a tech lab

Tad: so why am I here?

Reena: my best friend Jessie wakins is an inventor.

Reena: and she’s a magician.

Tad: wait she can do magic?

Reena:She can invent any weapon and item you needed

Tad: really?

Reena: I know. Probably her parents are inventors too.

Tad: but where is miss inventor?

Jessie: who said miss inventor!

Tad: ah!

Tad: *hummingbird arms* I’m sorry! We are not trespassers!

Jessie: I am not a miss, i am a god of inventory.

Jessie wakins appears to the screen

Jessie: *gasps and notices the two*

Jessie: oh my goodness! Hello!

Reena: Jessie! Hey!

Jessie: *hugs Reena* rini! I miss you! Where have you been?

Reena: stuff.

Reena: oh! Anyway this is tad stones.

Jessie: nice to meet you. I’m Jessie wakins. I’m Reena’s inventor and planner.

Jessie: OH MY GOD!

Reena: what is it? Is he going to throw up?

Jessie: worse! How come you never tell me that he has the glutes?!

Jessie: sorry if I got too dramatic.*chuckles* seriously man you have got to go to the gym more often. *pats his stomach*

Jessie: why are you guys here?

Reena: two things.

Reena: one. We came to warn you about Tiffany mordon.

Jessie: ugh! I hate her guts! Why does it have to bee the mean girl?

Reena: *snickers* good one Jessie.

Reena: two. You said something about my neighbor.

Jessie: indeed I do. Tad, remember when you stomach last caused the noise?

Tad: I think It was last night.

Jessie: yes! I think I know why.

Jessie have any of you heard about the antidote?

Tad: woah! How did you know about that?

Jessie: I’m friends with miss victoria moon. She and I know about the antidote.

Reena: how do you know all about this?

Jessie: I’ve been learning about it in the legend book Victoria gave me. It’s very poisonous especially for people whom have to have upset stomachs.

Jessie: I found a chip from the legendary rainbow crystal. It says that the rainbow crystal is found in the crystal cave in Mexico. But to form it, it has to form eight crystals. Pride, honesty, justice, intelligence, beauty, vision, thoughtful and warmth. Others are unknown to know. But I think that the only person who has the antidote has to do a ceremony to get rid of it. And until the poisonous antidote came to your stomach and started the pain.

Tad: wait. How did you?

Reena: what does this have to do with the antidote and the rainbow crystal?

Jessie shows them the chip of the rainbow crystal glowing and shining.

Tad: *gasps*

Reena: told you she was a magician.

Jessie: you see? That baby started to shine. Two days ago y’all.

Tad: when I swallowed the antidote.

Jessie: hang on. One chip ain’t gonna handle one person.

Reena: but how will we get to the crystal cave on time?

Jessie: you two and a gang with an army to go to Mexico, go to the temple, then the crystals temple, and then a dam which will lead you to a river then to a jungle and a canyon to stay the night, and then you head over to the city, and then to Naica chichichua Mexico and to a rainbow road to a rainbow forest and that’s where you’ll find the crystal cave.

Reena: but will you help us?

Jessie: girl. The ladies and I will also help you. I can make inventions so I can send them to my portal dimensionalizer to you. And you’ll need this.

Jessie gives tad a microchip and a card for her contact.

Tad: what’s this?

Jessie: this is where you and I will chat.

Jessie: this is going to be easy. All you have to do is go to your mission and remove the antidote like the one you have in your stomach right now

tad: woah woah woah! how did you know about that?

jessie: trust me. I know i have great senses. and so will you…

June 2021: Convos of the Day

Got asked to be Arlyn’s Bridesman!

Ratch Night/Dinner with Josh @ Olive Garden #BetYouDidntExpectTheGirlsToPray #ExpensiveDate #AppleSangriaistheMOVE

BECAME A MF CERTIFIED PARALEGAL BITCHEZZZZZZ ‼️‼️‼️‼️ #PBTG

Looking at the median salary for CPs in Florida 🤑🤑

MY AZZ IS GROWINGGGGG #donk

#Ziwe

#SHEESHOOmane #SHEESHaboy #SHEESHaBunGGEE

#Honey #HaHa #HopHop

Hashtag when will the unemployed life enddddddddd

Is the end of Team Nana as we know it???

I just want my $63 back

Taught caden how to “sing” #AwayAWAAAYY

GOT SURPRISED BY MY LITTLEEEE WITH MY PADDLE AT OUR LINEAGE LUNCH AT GREEN LEMON

Looked snatched w Kelly at Tangra

“Are you Worth of a Purifying Love?”

i think you are.

“i wish i didn’t have to go through that”

“and then it turns into a self-directed argument, where i gaslight myself to shed light on what.. happened to me”

6.12.21: Sometimes you need a little grit to your erasers. It doesn’t make them bad, itdoesnt make them defective. Its just how thy are and how they’re supposed to be. —

Self-care Notes

Sarku didn’t give us a reaction ? (at least from noodles)

church’s makes us very gassy

Affirmations:

Everybody has their own set going on. Just bc you don’t see it all on social media or necessarily hear about it. Not everything is right. And not everyone is living a perfect, dream-filled life. Everyone has their own set going on. So don’t feel bad

Jeremy Either: Not everything that works will always work. Sometimes we have to change it up.

6.1.21

Omg are me and Reena going to be Arlyns bridesmaids!!!!!!

I love CAM sm

I love that my mind and body have had a rest from this past Memorial Day weekend

Goal is to keep up NALA Skills Exam Energy for June LSAT

“If you do it, is it really good for your body?”

“It doesn’t mean you’re not grateful for your life, and it doesn’t meant you want to take it. It’s just a matter of acknowledgement and honesty with how you view where you are right now. When you give a voice to the pain in your heart, there comes a very quiet release to it”

+ Caden saying “Mama” whenever we point to Ate Cherry; laughing and clapping with Dan and Ate in the TV room

+ still excited AF to see what ARLYN has for me and Reena (and to be her mf bridesmaids!!!)

+ Chat group w the Lineage #trollol #OnlyQualityPRchairsInThisLineage #SonAnOldHeadGottaGo #NotActivesSwooningOverChristine

+ If the me from 5 years ago could see where I am today, I think he’d be shooketh to know that I’m a G and that we have a lineage (like. That we finally found a little, first of all). But to be a G??? And to be a paralegal and active within the Asian American Bar. That’s Iconic.

6.2.21

per usual, annoyed with how sharing a house compromises your flow and peace of mind

My body (although thicker than it was this tie last year) is so bomb. Worked out for the first Time in the garage agai today and waow curves. Hope to sharpen/plump them up this summer!

I have so much love in my life it’s crazy. CAM, Sidenote, Shawntel, Arlyn/Reena, Calvin, my lineage. I don’t ever wanna forget that.

6.3.21

I registered for my June LSAT! So there’s that. Haha. There are many things about my studying that I wish happened, but. We’re here and we’re as good as we’ll ever be.

“The Last Time you ever felt excited”

Inspired by: seeing the sun out and the sky completely illuminated and majestic-looking; kinda gave me a remarkable sense of peace and reminded me that somethings are really belatedly. And if you’re at the right place and right time, you’re reminded that things do exist outside of what you’re most focused about.

- EDC songs lmao

I can’t wait for the that moment and for that season to come. I really can’t.

But in the meantime, I’ll look back down, hold onto what I got in front of me, and keep it going. It hasn’t been sunshine and rainbows, but I also know that every season has its time. And so I’m gonna see this through.

6.6.21

+ Clean Room; Fresh Sheets; Cleared Desk, Clean floor

+ 230 likes on Bridesman pic!!! #TnxReenaForCameraQuality #ImACutie

+ Mahjong with the fam. won twice!!! #Yehe

+ Caden’s “Chao” bow and mano po, and just being a cutie and being a smart and growing and funny and sweet boy

and when that time comes

when your face start to thicken out a lil and you got a little more extra plump in ya booty and thighs —— don’t kill ya self over it. even beyonce couldn’t escape aging. everyone is going to get there and you should bot feel bad for literally your body doing what it needs to be doing. you can’t look 22 forever. (i’m fact, no shade to 2017 you but .. i don’t think you wanna look like 22 year old you again LMAOOOOOO.) the positive gag is- you looked WAAAAY snatched at 24+25 than you did all your life tbh. bahahhhahha

so don’t beat yourself up over looks. you are funny and have a good heart, and your looks on the outside will never take that away.

ps. you may not have a snatched body or be the fittest guy in 5 years, but i’m positive we’ll have a better idea of our vocation/job by then. and i think that’ll beat any look i’ll ever try to achieve.

love,

25 yr old you

7.7.21

+ Not to be arte, BUTTTT youre abs this morning ????? WOW

I can wait forever a day when not everything reminds me of you - Zedd, Gainesville, 2019, Christmas lttrs. i really wish all those lingering hopes of what should have been by now left me. and i wish a greater sense of realism and optimism coursed through every fiber of my being.

but i’m not there yet. i’m a lot better than i was a year ago, but i’m certainly not 100% free of all that i feel when it comes to you. but, instead of tormenting myself with what was and could have been, i choose now to be a healthier and more inspiring version of myself. and as much as i’d like to replay every juicy detail in my head and remind myself with the sweet things you said, i deserve to be happy in the now, and i deserve to be happy i’m the meantime while i heal. I deserve to feel and know that i - on my own- am enough, and that just bc it didn’t work out with you, doesn’t mean it will never work out for me

i deserve to know that i’m ok. and that my anxieties about what we were and what we should have been — are all attempts for me to make happy. my anxiety is just trying to help us arrive at a safer and more comfortable place. what i doesn’t know, is that safer and more comfortable is not always the healthiest place

sometimes it will require grit and some challenging moments. and i want to be present for all of them

Jean saying No to the Phoenix - rejecting great power + responsibility for the sake of living a human life

Day Trip to drop off Mom & See Caden

IG responses from Caden Medical Emergency video

+ Call w Kelly

Exited for Jurassic World 3, (EDCO?)

Excited for life after LSAT again- working on apps, working out, not selling burdened my studying for the time being again

6.12.21

+ BECAME A MF CERTIFIED PARALEGAL TODAY ‼️‼️‼️‼️ #PBTG

+ IG Story Reactions from CP announcement on IG story CF!!!

“OMG CONGRATULATIONS 🥳🥳❤️” - Alyana

“IM SO PROUDDDDDDD😭👏🏼” - Shawntel

“Congrats pallll” - Calvin

“EEEEEEEEEEEE LETS GO FRIENDDDDD. SO PROUD OF YOUUUUUUU” - Lady

“CONGRATS FRIEENDDDDD” - Kelly

***Call from G Ate Esther

+ KFT, Lolis, Scandy Questions Game w Josh & Den, Galaxy background,

#RentingisInsidious #DennisTinderSwiping #AintThatTheSameGuy?? Dream careers: #ZumbaInstructor #HallmarkCardWriter #Showrunner -> #BimboBitch #GaslightingGaslighting #ABCLiquorStore I am my most confident self when i make myself and my friends laugh

+ Enjoying the High from thinking about the “CP” credential after my name on my resume

+ Basking in how much pride, and fulfillment and excitement it brings me

+ Lineage talking about FK and EDCO

+ Nana Legacy & Founders Day

+ Conflicting feelings about S - my existent desire for closure still, and feeling conflicted about how my assessment of this person is molded by what i did and didn’t know about them

“That is the difference. I am no longer scared of losing your friendship. Nor am i socially reliant on it. because i’ve found that I *CAN* live without your accompaniment and that i have so many other friends who are more like family, and fulfill me in ways that you really, objectively, don’t. You’re tied to so many former seasons of my life that don’t play a large role in who i am today and who i’m trying to be. and so i don’t feel reliant on being “close to you”. it’s also mostly bc i know you’re often motivated by fleeting emotions and occasional hypocrisy.

6.15.21 “Me Day” + Cleaned mine & Mom’s cards

+ Massage! #byeKnots + Kangs Garden & Mcd w Josh & (Denni’s house) + Journaling & feels from 2019 journal posts about starting paralegal program <3 hashtag #closure + 8/8 Water + Loving my thighs and how strong legs look. and my BOOTY?????? WOWWWWW

+ Also love that my face is seemingly getting slimmer, but my stomach is def still kinda out there :/ LOL

i also wanna work on thickening my arms in a bully way

regardless, i’m focusing on becoming stronger and toned! i don’t wanna waste my life away on the treadmill and i keep hearing from everywhere it’s not the move!

things that made me feel negative today:

Not having a job rn - so i can’t readily and openly pay for things left and right and “do what i want to”. i mean yes, there’s this layer of wanting to flex for the Gram, but on a more serious level, it’s about having this level of freedom and independence and self-spoiling for myself

Feeling not good enough to have a job yet in a law firm - feeling helpless reading about all the different requirements and experience employers want you to have and just feeling like — what i have to say and to offer isnt enough. and that i’m just a try-hard imposter

Alvyn CF story dilemma. ugh. so stupid

Journal: Letter to 28 year old me

Did law school ever workout?

Is your raving career all fleshed out?

Did Team Nana Survive? #BeginningOfTheEndin2021?

did we ever get any kind of closure for S?

how’s cam?

how are the kids?

how’s sidenote?

how’s your planning for our grand 30th in Hawaii going? any updates! any changes?

omg how was Jurassic World 3? Was it a hot mess? Is Britney still crazy?

6.18.21

+ Things

Caden and seeing how much he talks and how fast he can catch into new things- and just his sweet overall personality growing eacbday

being of service to my family

my family

Things

Not being in the same “league” my friends - financially or career-wise

Not being able to pay for EDCO right away and be part of the hype that’s going on rn with people buying :(

wondering if i have a group of friends who would wanna do for me what they did for tina today

wondering if i bring anyone as much joy as i think i do

not being wanted by S (after i so bravely reacted to something on IG CF)

knowing that i needed to hear the “bad news”, or “disappointing” stuff- but it still hurting every time like it was the first time .. i should be familiar with this pain by now. and it shouldn’t hurt me so personally anymore. but it does and i can’t help but feel broken and excited all at the same time. hah...but i guess in some weird way- i thrive off of this kind of heartbreak? .... bc in many ways, it points me back to the path that i should be on, i suppose. It sobers me up, it reminds me of my fallibility, and it reminds me of what i’m good at. and that- i feel - has always been... finding the silver lining in heartbreak. remembering that i’m more than a potential boyfriend, mastering unrequited feelings, and providing others with wordss of comfort and healing, after i know i’ve been through it before.

6.19.21

Things that are under attack: my worth & my capability

Law school applications

everyone buying their EDCO tickets, and pitching in for bday gifts - being unemployed in the midst of it all and feeling like i can’t contribute or hang with the rest of them — feeling like i’m lacking and that i don’t “deserve” my place. or that i’m even wanted if i can’t “pull my own weight”

being unemployed has left me with those feelings of not being satisfied in either major areas of my life- career-wise or family.

not feeling good enough or that i’m “pulling my own weight” in either category and feeling like ultimately just wasting time and space in both.

How many times am i going to have to re-word the same shit and appear just as impactful or important

like damn

when the fck am i going to finally get a call-back or get my feet back in

although it feels mortifying, i may have to apply my name and credential to things that are “beneath” me - or at least i need to scout for positions that WILL train me to draft/format pleadings and other legal documents. like phew what the F spc. where’s your bragging in training the best now when i need y’all?? like at LEAST promise me a good employment afterward???? like SHIT

I JUST NEEEEEED MONEEYYYYYYYY

avoiding S’ stories and just h overall. i’m done making myself feel bad. and making myself feel like i have to “feel everything out” in order to get over it. the more i focus on my reality and not the fantasy world i’ve created in my head, the better

Reactions for Bishops/Biden post

WHEEEWWWWWWW CHILEE - Tewin

“100%” -risha

PREACH - arlyn

sir this is too loud -ray

PREACH - acelyn

JDKEKFJEK FRIEND CAN WE PLEAAAAAAASE TALK ABOUT THISZMY CATHOLIC HEART IS HURTING SEEING THIS IS HOW OUR *AMERICAN* CHURCH IS RIGHT NOW - lady

Not needing to depend on fs groupme for affirmation or solidarity

“i don’t fear losing your friendship bc i don’t depend on it for anything anyway. i don’t feel compelled to prove to people that Ibhave a “group” or have a social life outside of what i post/share. esp if i don’t have that kind of regular relationship with you anyway.”

reputation x posting about being Catholic

“if i lost something bc of that, then i know probably shouldn’t have had that thing in the first place anyway” ie certain friendships, relationships, and “popularity”

Expose Your Insecurities : Ep. 1 “Why do i need to be OUT there?”

Who is it that i need to “impress” or flex for anymore? Why is it that if it appears as though i’ve been excluded or left out from a social situation, why is looking like “i’m left out” the worst imaginable pain i can comprehend?

Why does the desire to look included reach so far within me that i often feel stress over “losing” - and where i feel the need to priotoze those events and things over my family or my wallet?

Answer: Well bc A.) Youre a sucker for good memories and the feelings of being “alive” and young. But more importantly, it’s an attack on my image and the impression i’ve made on people. in a world that’s full of chaos and one where i don’t have full control, i thrive knowing that my reputation is something i feel most in control of. it’s something i carefully curate throughout the years and I take great pride in that image. - BUT at the same time i often have to remember that nobody is sht and so no ones opinion of me really matters. Well... some do.. But it’s those whom are closest to me that should really matter. and not the “grand” audience i’ve built for myself over the years.

Maaaaan the archbishops got me having spiritual-intellectual convos in my head again

I am against the culture that says everyone is entitled to what they want. i am against the culture that says everyone should be married. And that something is wrong with you if you’re not. And i am for the culture that says “maybe, sometimes, i need to break my own heart to satisfy find Jesus some more.”

If we do not operate from a place of genuine love and genuine empathy, we will never go anywhere

A Law with no Love is pointless to the future of mankind.

“You’re an orator. So of course you’ll want to share. I think you’re best sitting back, observing, and share your commentary.”

faith szn: “Dont talk over Me”

6.21.21

Seeing CVT bus van at the Vale station

Feeling a swarm of bittersweet memories, and pride passing by USF areas on campus. remembering how i felt, how i thought, and where i was in that phase of my life with every memory of a particular area

Thankful/Positives List

No Job, No Money, No Life

Hypocrisy in the Church & Another reminder as to why i loathe human ways

I need to unplug (the realization that there are so may things that call my attention online - Youtube, Instagram, - and while i feel like i’ve done a pretty great job at organizing and archiving what i want to watch- it is ultimately draining trying to keep up with EVERYTHINGGGG i love. it’s a lot. it’s loud and it’s exhausting. and so i guess for me it’s a reminder to take a step back and to simplify things again

siana 6.22.21

Outtake Clip from “Honeymoon Fades” album interview - Zane Lowe

it’s kinda like having a moment of honesty and saying,

i’m glad you love me for what i’ve done and who i’ve been. but i hope that you can appreciate me after all of it. even when i’m not that. and if you’re bot and i lose your love

i’m ok with that

it’s a rightful homage to where you’ve been and the mystery of where you’re going next

is that a fair observation to make abut your latest project?”

“actually.... yeah.”

Lst- last ditch attempt to save something i knew was dead

but we’re never done. and that’s the point

It is a privilege to see Caden grow up. it is a privilege to have the family and the time that i do. And i never want to forget that.

Boosted my resume and cover letter, hella (yay for looking up job postings on Indeed and editing at midnight - bc thats when we actually h ave time to sit down and do it lolz)

choosing to believe that me writing and re-composing all thee damn cover letters and resumes is going toward something fruitful and beneficial for me. if anything, maybe it’s showing that i CAN cater my writing to whatever is needed via a prompt. maybe this warming me up for my personal statement writing

feeling bugged by rna again and how she chooses to portray herself to social media and friends. like her hypocrisy bugs me to no end and idk why it bothers me so.

is it because i see myself in her? is it bc i felt that that’s bot the friend i’ve invested so much time into and it turns out she’s not that? idk man. it’s just annoying. and ya making me want to reach out to other friends who have always story by me. (lady, CAM, etc)

I also think your insecurities are telling you that you HAVE to be living this particular way of life. and that you HAVE to be young and carefree and do “everythig while you can”. but. the reality is - living THEE life is living AYE life. and it’s about doing things that are fulfilling and selfless. it’s doing things with people who have consistently taken care of you and prioritized you, not indebting yourself to an image oft a group of people that don’t take care of you in the way your family does

re-word your insecurities: that i’m not a slave or taken for granted person - that i am a benefit and blessing to my family and that i do brig value by being me - no matter what “condition” or shape i’m in

I want my work & words to bring Healing & Inspiration

I think i always wanted that voice. to tell me that it was ok to feel what i felt. and to assure me that it wasn’t my fault. and that evry thing was going to be ok. i think that’s the kind of stuff that feeds me and gives me purpose. to give my own pain new life and purpose

sometimes i think ........ like dang. i’m thoughtful. and pretty i tune with my thoughts and feelings. im a good guy. and is like to think i’m pretty funny (based on the reactions people give me). there’s really no one out there that’s interested in this? hhahahahha

but maybe that’s just the le in my talking.

siana (6.23.21)

I want my work & words to bring Healing & Inspiration

you could argue that your first album - Yours, Truly - even up all the way until Charted - has been your “Honeymoon”. This legacy that you’ve built for yourself and the world you’ve made for your fans. it’s kinda like having a moment of honesty and saying,

i’m glad you love me for what i’ve done and who i’ve been. but i hope that you can appreciate me after all of it. even when i’m not that. and if you’re bot and i lose your love

i’m ok with that

it’s a rightful homage to where you’ve been and the mystery of where you’re going next

is that a fair observation to make abut your latest project?”

“actually.... yeah.”

6.27.21 - DERICK SURPRISED ME WITH MY PADDLE TONIIIIIIIIGTHT

Idk. Just ... knowing how much effort was put into it and the fact that so much time and effort and money was poured into it- i’m so happy.

and th fact that they genuinely surprised me was the icing on the cake.

Knowing that “that” was one of the last things i had to look forward to as a bro in PDP... it gives me a sense of sweet closure.

that + seeing minh kenny and randy at Tangria. def reminded me of how far we’ve all come and how what we were is over and done with.

i mean it’s BEEEEEN been over, but i guess these are the kinds of things that just happen and kinda remind you of how “done” you are of certain phases in your life.

Going Alone

Gave me SUCH liberty and freedom. Like not needing to have to worry about someone else or NEEDING to entertain them while i navigated my way through Ybor. I really did enjoy going to things at my own pace (and you know how we get when we get our confident walk stride on- OKKKK. we got places to BE henny. i enjoyed going to things at my own pace (10 stars would recommend), but i will admit i did get lonely at times. just a few times. when i would see others strangers with their friend groups or SOs.

Miscommunication & Social Anxiety (the type that you shouldn’t feel when you’re with real friends)

so honestly i didn’t feel bad about not going to the pregame. i saved money by avoiding the need to bring drinks and i also saved the literal gas (i did NOT need to spend more after Green Lemon with the Lineage)

Harvey’s words to me while drunk 🥺

i really do hope we get closer. NOT LIKE —- SUUUPER SUPER tight. doesnt need to be that lmfao. but like.... enough where he’s comfortable to approach me with things if he ever needs to. or that he can trust me. idk. i just don’t wanna be a stranger to him is all

Final Thots

i guess it’s just a bittersweet reminder that time are changing and we’re all getting older.

and like..... even tho we weren’t the closest , or wanted to be, the fact that... all of that is done and in the past. like that vibe of being new pbs, going to pi house, seeing each other at music events and stuffs.

it’s like over.

and like.. not to be put a depressing cap on it. but... idk. it’s just a weird bittersweet feeling. and in many ways (even tho i don’t give it much thought) - i do mourn what could’ve been in moments like these. the g life that should’ve been. the alternate universe where we were all as close as epsilons are.

but it ok.

as always, i am happy and i am grateful foe the time i/we had. and what that meant for us then. and i choose to be so thankful for it was and will always be

2018 was such a good time

to be fresh enough out of undergrad but to also enjoy the feeling of not being THAT old or THATTTT close to a mid life crisis

Realizing that it’s been 3 years since 2018 and how all the “older ” bros are sigmas and taus???? and i’m LIKE —- WHAT DOES THIS MAKE ME?????????????

anyway. it just goes to show that

“There’s no one to impress anymore”

and that is the most liberating and freeing feeling ever.

feel like i’ve fulfilled a character story arc on a long-running show

6.28.21

it’s so interesting to see how different people react/like what you post. like my ig upload about my paddle and lineage ??? and pleeeeenty of people who never usually like my stuff liked it!! like really random people. like G3 and ucf bros and stuff

An apology to Ellie

Ellie. It's important that I leave this note for you, one you may never read. Nevertheless, in a quite corner of the internet, this note awaits being discovered.

I am 40. An age, where I am afraid to look back and terrified to look ahead. Behind me are a mountain of memories that I desperately cling onto, sometimes romanticise, and often times escape into.

Around me are people who built those with me. My folks, my partner, my daughter, my sister, friends from college, old neighbours, cousins, first love, and the people I have lost on the way - they fill up this mountain of both joy and melancholy.

Somewhere in there is a young me, romantic, with a beating heart, who felt the rush and blush of teenage love. I remember that feeling vividly. The sight of a girl I was madly in love with, would send me into tizzy. My palms would sweat, I would stammer and struggle for words, would feel the weight of her sight on me. And then one day she agreed to love me back. Bam! That knocked me off, in a good way. I remember the music in my head, the first kiss, the songs we listened to, the long conversations, the future we imagined, the sneaky phone calls and the whispers, the evening cycle rides back home dreaming and humming...

I can see me with absolute clarity here, a nervous, shaky young boy, madly in love and wild with imaginations. Its fun to be young, and incredibly beautiful to fall in love.

In the years that followed, I would not stop loving. In my own way, I have loved women. In school, and then later in college and the one I married a decade later.

But there is one in particular that I remember. Shalet. From college. When she left me, I was devastated. It wasn't her fault at all, but I blamed her for it. Frantic in love, I was acting like a jerk. That pushed her futher away and she left in disgust, without a goodbye. That hurt. I knew I was wrong, I knew I could have behaved better, but I did not. She never came back. Erased me out of her life, totally. That hurt and that was the last time I felt the rush of love and the pain of loss. It was terrible. It drowned me. Killed a flame within. I would never love anyone like that ever again. Not in the same way.

In my mid and late 20s I was sinking in cynicism. I stopped believing in love. Looked for intelluctual stimulations everywhere. I was disgusted by anything romantic. Always forcing myself to rationalise and dismiss any emotions. It was in this period that I met my wife, then a young woman, still 7 years elder to me. We did not fall in love at first sight. Infact, we would talk about everything under the sun, help and advise each other on life and things, but were not in love at all. Until one day we did. Not the same kind of love I felt earlier. This was more rational, pragmatic, more from the head, less from the heart.

Reena. She is beautiful, brave. Someone I admire tremendously. I can say a thousand brilliant things about her. Never been more comfortable with anyone else ever.

We've been married 12 years now. We tell each other everything. Never hide nothing. Until I met you. I am terrified to tell Reena about you.

Why?

When we met a few months ago, I was just a man bogged down by the details of life. Worried about the bills to pay, the groceries to buy, the future of my kid. All that. You walked into my life, and hit me like a thunderbolt. You have perhaps no idea about any of this (or perhaps you do, because I try and get all chatty with you). But, in Bilbao, in the September of 2022, you lit a fire on dead charcoal Ellie. I was standing on the stairs of Seminario listening to my colleagues chatting away in Spanish. Struggling to follow the conversation, when you offered to help interpret all that for me. You did not have to do that, but the good person that you are, you offered to help. In that moment I looked at you in the eye, you had no clue, and felt a flutter within. Something that I never did in nearly two decades. I have no idea why. Its just the way you looked in that moment and space - it hit me like a thunderbolt, I felt alive. I became that young shaky boy once again. You made me nervous. From that moment on, everytime I saw you walk into a room, or wave your hand, or even your sound in my ears (the interpretation!) would set my heart beating faster. I never felt that way since Shalet. Never.

And I am sorry that you never asked for any of this. You were (and are) totally unaware of all this mess in my mind. It's unfair that I drag you into this.

I think I am afraid Ellie. Afraid of growing old. Afraid of not being able to love again like I once did. The wanton mind, that would blindly follow the beats of a heart..I am afraid I am no longer that, until you came along.

And I am afraid to tell this to Reena. It will break her. It will imply a lot of things, that could shred her sanity apart.

Its stupid, what I am doing and thinking. You and me, we have nothing in common. We will never enjoy each other's company beyond the formalities that define it. You probably already have a good life surrounded by love. I may not add anything more to all that. I am at best an annoyance in your life. My head tells me I am being a jerk, imagining the impossible. I am reminded time and again that love is cumbersome and that at some point will run out of fuel. And then like in all relationships, love would someday give way to a set of jaded moments trapped in routines.

I know all that, but my heart won't listen. And I am tempted, to try and seek you out, send you a message, make you laugh. I may be crossing a red line here, and I am terribly aware of it. Yet, I am unable to stop and its ridiculous. It silly and childish. It is harassment.

I am sorry Ellie. I apologise for wasting your time and the disruptions I create in your life. I wish I could stop. I sincerely do.

Who were you last on an elevator with? Bea and Liara when booked a hotel for an event we were having at a nearby venue the next day. I come bearing a recent story that involves an elevator though – so a few weeks ago I had to oversee a photoshoot, and the studio only had basement parking so I drove over there to park my car. There was an elevator that could take me to the ground floor so I hit the going-up button and waited, but then while waiting this...really...creepy guy?? walked towards the elevator to wait alongside me. I still don’t know if I had been overreacting but I was simply creeped out from the start, and then he started mumbling to himself and that’s when I said fuck it, did a whole bit about pretending to have forgotten something, and calmly walked back to my car.

Anyway so I get in and peer from my rear window the best I can while staying hidden, and I see the elevator open and he gets inside. But then he doesn’t close the doors and the elevator stayed open...and it stayed open...and it stayed open. He was standing with the door open for literally half a minute and all the while he was just staring at my fucking car. Eventually it closed and he disappeared forever but I’m just glad I made that decision to walk back to my car. Fuck knows what could have happened once those doors closed with me inside. I let it pass for about a minute or so, and I ended up taking the stairs.

Do you know anyone who is missing a toe? Hmm. I don’t think so.

Do you know anyone that has a black belt in karate? I probably do. Karate and taekwondo are kind of common sports here, especially for kids.

Would you rather take the elevator, escalator, or stairs? It depends how far up I’m going. Generally I avoid going up stairs, but if I was only going like one or two levels up I’d take an escalator. For much higher levels I’d look for an elevator.

Do any lights stay on while you sleep? I will sometimes fall asleep with my desk lamp on, but for the most part I prefer to sleep in a pitch black space.

Who is usually the first person to text you in the mornings? Nobody regularly texts me in the morning. Sometimes Reena will wake up earlier and send a BTS update in our group chat if there’s anything going on hahaha, but otherwise no one sends me anything.

If you have a notepad in your phone, what do you use it for the most? 98% of my notes at this point are stuff I write down from work calls/meetings.

Who is the last child that you took a photo with? I can’t even remember. I don’t usually take pictures with kids.

What color is the menu button on your phone? My phone is touchscreen, but the in-screen widget I press to go to the menu is grey. How often do you wear hats? Pretty often. I like putting on my bucket hats when I head out; the only time I don’t is if I’m headed to the office.

When is the last time you used a bobby pin? I want to say it was August 2020 when I wanted my family and myself to have a makeshift photoshoot at home for my pandemic graduation.

Is it more common for your phone’s ringer to be on or for it to be on vibrate? It’s on silent most days because I hate it when it rings while I work. Vibrate is never on because to me it gives off the same vibe as a ringtone; I’ve always been content with my phone just lighting up when it gets a new notification.

How many people live in your house? Five, including me.

How many bedrooms does your house have? Four.

How and where did you get your most recent cut? All over my arms. Playing with Cooper, hahaha.

Do you enjoy leaving voicemails? No, I don’t think that feature has ever been available where I’m from. If it is, I’ve seen literally nobody use voicemail. A common question: What are you listening to? I have a Run BTS episode in the background.

Would you ever get a nature tattoo? I'm not necessarily against it, but it'd have to mean something to me. < Yeah, exactly. Right now I have no reason to get a nature-themed tattoo.

What kind(s) of animal(s) do you have, if any? I have two dogs. Kimi is also a permanent fixture in the living room through his memorial box with his ashes, fur sample, and pawprint mold inside.

Backstreet Boys or N*Sync? I don’t have a preference; I never really listened to either.

What is in your pockets right now? No pockets at the moment.

Will you be moving soon? Nah, I don’t have plans to.

Have you ever been in a fist fight? Nope.

If you could get any piercing, what would it be? Nose stud or a lip ring.

Do you know anyone that is a compulsive liar? Don’t think so.

Is anyone in your family sick at the moment? I know my dad caught a fever at the start of the week, but I think he’s doing a lot better now. I’ll have to check on him.

Where do your siblings work, if anywhere? They aren’t working, but my sister is graduating college soon and I can’t wait to see where she’ll end up being and what she’ll be doing!

What is your worst habit? I never wash the dishes immediately after finishing my food.

What is your favorite cereal? I don’t really eat cereal. I know they get soggy, but eating them with milk as it is, like right off the bat, already feels like such to me and I’ve always found it gross. Where is your favorite place to buy groceries? S&R because the place is huge and has lots of imported stuff.

Who do you generally talk to the most? If not my workmates, probably Angela.

Have you ever had a crush on someone of the same gender? Sure.

Do you enjoy painting? I do, as long as I have a template to follow. I never paint from scratch.

When did you receive the oldest voicemail in your phone? I don’t have voicemail and have never used it.

Do you have any locked texts messages? I’ve never done that either and I’m not sure any of my apps have that feature.

Do your two favorite colors compliment each other? Uhhhh I don’t think mustard yellow and pastel pink work well together, no.

What store do you shop at the most for clothes? H&M or whatever tiangge I see at the mall.

Is anyone saved in your phone under a nickname? Nah. Angela’s has a bunch of emojis alongside her name but that’s the most playful it gets in my contacts.

Which company provides your car insurance? I’m not even sure it has insurance. In any case my parents take care of everything that has to do with my car since it’s technically under their name haha.

Whose birthday is coming up? My mom’s, sister’s, and Angela’s, but these aren’t til September.

Have you ever ordered from an informercial? Nope.

Do you believe that everyone has secrets? Of course?

Is there an artist or group that you didn’t used to like but has grown on you? LOL BTS. And like the entirety of K-pop in general.

When, where, and why did a needle last pierce your skin? My arm, for my Covid booster last February.

Can you sleep without a sheet on your bed? No. I imagine I’d feel super uncomfortable.

How to have a relationship with a working woman:

1) A good night can remove her stress , sa buong araw ba naman na pagod sa work diba bago sana matulog mag goodnight ka 😅

2) Don't force her to answer your chat right away, lalo na sa mga nag cocommute wag naman minamadaling mag reply sayo agad baka masagasaan yan habang tumatawid haha

3) find time for her, kaya kayo nasa relasyon ay para mag karoon ng mga memories at mas makilala nyo ang isat isa ,kwentuhan at sharing dreams malaking bagay yun

4) when in fights please be considerate, na baka pagod lang sya or gusto lang ng unawa mo , pag usapan nyo ng maayos

5) she has her own opinion and principle, wag ka masyado magalit pag sa usapang politics, climate, etc di kayo pareho haha

6) she have her own boundaries and deserve to be respected, kung ineexpect mo na irespeto ka , dapat irespeto mo din sya , kapag alamo na di nya kaya yung ginagawa mo o gagawin mo , better mag usap kayo para di masira ang tiwala

7) takes care and show her you appreciate her, ang babaeng nag wowork hahanap yan ng oras para makasama ka kaya I appreciate mo

8) don't force her to quit job, nung dumating ka sa buhay nya nag wowork na yan, may sarili syang rason kaya gusto nya yan

9) let her enjoy her self , kapag gusto nyang mag punta sa lugar at di ka makakasama payagan mo minsan, para payagan ka din , pero alam nyo sa isat isa na walang iba haha

10) be open if shes not comfortable with someone , kapag di komportable yung girl na nakikipag usap ka sa iba or parang nag hihinala sya , wag mo na ituloy , dyan palang foul ka na.

❤️- reena

Dorkus Maximus

Day 20, Story #1 is by @honouraryweasley12

Title: Dorkus Maximus Author: honouraryweasley12 Pairing: Harry/Ginny Prompt: Slice of life Rating: PG

The locker room door slammed open, and a frustrated raven-haired witch marched in, a sporting bag slung over her shoulder and a broom in hand. She marched to where her teammates were sitting and threw her equipment down in a huff.

"What's with all the press? It's only an open practice. Bloody nuisance, they are."

"Good morning to you, too, Reena." Edith replied, giving her friend a wry smile.

She groaned. "I know this is the first full season since the end of the war and everything, but it's mental out there. I guess people are really excited for Quidditch to be back."

Edith scoffed; her face unable to hide the surprise. She glanced around at the other women who were staring at Reena and murmuring indistinctly. All but a redheaded witch sitting at the far stall.

Reena glanced around, confused by the reactions of her fellow Harpies. "What, what did I miss?"

"Have you met the new Chaser? She just graduated from Hogwarts."

Reena shook her head. The redhead stood up and strode across the room, holding out a hand.

"Hi, I'm Ginny."

Reena shook her hand, still unsure what the new chaser had to do with the number of reporters at their usually quiet practice. "Nice to meet you, I'm Reena Kumar. I guess we'll be chasing together."

Ginny smiled. "I'm looking forward to it. I've been watching you play for the past few years."

"You must be quite a sensation to draw all that attention."

Edith interrupted. "Her full name is Ginny Weasley."

Reena's eyes widened. "Weasley? As in the family of war heroes?"

Ginny blushed. "It wasn't just us, so many people fought."

"No wonder there are so many reporters outside. I guess we'll have to get used to it, having a celebrity on our team."

"You're already celebrities," Ginny replied.

"Sure, amongst some people. But everyone knows of your family now."

Ginny shrugged. "I have your poster up on my wall. That goal you scored on Wimbourne in '96 was amazing."

"Well, I see you're a student of the game. Just ignore those tossers outside and concentrate on the practice."

"It's fine. They follow my boyfriend and I everywhere. He hates the attention, but I've gotten used to it, being with him."

"Oh, who's your boyfriend?"

The rest of the team howled with laughter, as Ginny's face flushed a deep red.

Edith piped up again. "I know you're a fanatic about your training in the offseason, Reena, but you can't be serious. Have you not looked at a magazine or newspaper in the last year?"

Reena bristled defensively, facing her teammates. "What the hell is the matter with all of you?"

Edith laughed, clapping her friend on the shoulder. "Ginny here also happens to be the girlfriend of Harry Potter."

Reena spun back around. "What? THE Harry Potter?"

Ginny nodded, smiling. "It's really not a big deal."

Edith sat down heavily, fanning her face in jest. "He's so dark and mysterious, running off on secret missions to save the world. Fighting off evil at every turn. So brave and heroic."

It was Ginny's turn to laugh, drawing the attention of the rest of the women, who were unable to resist listening to gossip about the famous Harry Potter.

Edith looked affronted. "What did I say?"

Ginny shook her head. "He's not like that at all. He did what he had to do; he didn't want any of the burden he's lived his life under. You've been reading too many gossip rags."

"What's he like then?" Reena asked, unable to hide her curiosity.

"He's… a dork," Ginny replied affectionately.

A loud roar of indignation rang out from the rest of the team, unbelieving of her description of the most famous wizard in the country.

She held up her hands. "I'm being completely truthful. He's nothing like the stories make him out to be."

The sharp voice of team captain Gwenhog Jones suddenly rang out, silencing them as she entered from the trainer's room. "Enough with the chit chat. We hit the pitch in five minutes. Kumar, Leech, and Weasley, you'll lead us out."

The team nodded and got back to their usual routine. Ginny couldn't help adding one more thing. "Judge for yourselves when you meet him."

A few minutes later, they were lined up, brooms at the ready. Edith threw an arm each around Ginny and Reena. "Let's go."

~*~

Three hours later, the locker room was almost empty. Most of the team had showered and left after a hard first practice, one which had been flooded by the flashes of cameras as reporters tried to get a first glimpse of Ginny Weasley, current media darling.

It had been so bad at one point that Gwenhog almost crashed into the stands, sending them all scrambling.

The only players left in the locker room were Reena, who was busy stretching, and Ginny, who was trying to come up with a gameplan on how to avoid the questions and photos. The Anti-Apparition jinxes on the locker room were proving to be an annoyance.

There was a soft knock on the door, so Ginny marched over and opened it a crack, ready to ream out the reporter she expected. Instead, she was greeted with nothing.

"Gin, it's me."

"Harry!?"

"Yeah, can I come in? No one is changing or anything, are they?"

"No, come in." She pushed open the door slightly, allowing him in before shutting it again.

He whispered a phrase, lifting his Disillusionment charm, before quickly pulled her into a long snog. After they broke apart, he stepped back.

She looked him up and down, bursting out in laughter. "What are you wearing?"

He was decked out from head-to-toe in the signature green and yellow Harpies colours, including a kit with Weasley across his back. He had a glittery green pom-pom in his left hand, and his face was painted with the Holyhead logo. He even had a hat on with an animated chaser throwing a quaffle through a hoop.

"I came to see your practice! You were great!" Harry exclaimed, rather loudly and enthusiastically. He mimicked flying and waved his hands wildly. "That one move you made where you faked to the middle, then threw it through the far hoop was outstanding."

A voice called out. "What's the commotion. Is everything—"

Reena froze as she rounded the corner, coming face to face with Harry.

Ginny smirked, and gestured to her boyfriend. "See, I told you. Reena Kumar, meet Harry Potter."

Reena laughed, seeing the look of confusion on Harry's face. He shrugged his shoulders and stuck out a hand. She stared at it in awe for a second, before taking it.

Harry shook her hand energetically, still buoyed by his exuberance over Ginny's practice.

"Nice to meet you, Harry. My friends and family will hardly believe it!"

"Nice to meet you as well. Oh!" His eyebrows suddenly raised in recognition. "Gin's shown me some of your highlights. You're an amazing chaser!"

"Thank you." Her voice was halting, still somewhat taken aback by his bizarre appearance.

"Did you see Ginny? Wasn't she fantastic? You looked like a veteran out there. Just incredible!"

"Harry, calm down, it was one practice."

He bounced on his heels. "But you were so great, love. All of you were. You're going to be at the top of the table, I can feel it!"

Reena shook her head, stunned that the saviour of their way of life was indeed as Ginny described. After an awkward second of silence, she addressed him. "From what I've read, you're quite a good Seeker."

"I'm alright," Harry responded.

"Don't be modest." Ginny turned to her fellow Chaser. "He could've played in the league if he wanted to."

"She's definitely surpassed me since I last played at Hogwarts. Wasn't she great for her first time with a professional team?"

"He does have a point, Weasley. You were pretty good."

"See, Gin?"

She waved him off. "Thank you, both. Where were you, Harry? I didn't see you."

"I was planning to surprise you, but there were too many reporters. I hid myself in the top corner of the stands. I also may have planted a rumour just now that you had snuck out already, that's why no one is here."

"It's almost like you've done this before." Ginny added wryly.

Harry grabbed her hands in his. "We should really get going. Your mum planned a big celebration dinner and most of the family will be there. It was really great meeting you, Reena!"

He practically dragged Ginny to the doors as she waved goodbye to her teammate, flashing Reena a look of humoured exasperation and rolled her eyes.

Harry kept babbling on as they exited the room. "Ron really wanted to come, too, but he had too much work. He and Hermione will be there, as will George and Angelina, Percy—"

The doors shut behind them, cutting off the sound. Reena simply shook her head and smiled. Dork didn't even begin to cover it.
