Midnight Visions

It was totally dark outside when I finally finished the report for structure class. My stomach has complained to me for a long time since I haven’t fed it the whole day. My teammates set up another meet at 7:45 tomorrow morning to revise the report. I can’t believe that these people have so much energy and enthusiasm on a stupid structure project. “Whatever…” I said to myself, “you need to go home to dig your fridge for some food right now, CiCi”. I stormed out of my studio as soon as my teammates said ‘alright, let’s meet tomorrow!” I smelled cheeseburger and French fries in the hallway.

I was several minutes late for the bus. So then, I had to walk back home. It just stopped raining. It was freezing cold outside. I noticed even though I tried to walk faster, the street in front of me didn’t seem to move closer at all. My pants felt like tapes that bind my legs together…I was too tired. More then 10 hours of studying in classes and working on projects with less than 5 hours sleep is something more than enough to turn me into a ghost. While I was on the way home, I kept imagining a car hitting me and running right over my head. My projects and tests would be gone right away! Yeah! (just joking)

After 25 minutes of walking, I could finally saw the lights in Spancer View. I managed to poke my key into the door and opened it. My special someone was preparing to leave and study in the library. “Hey, I’m home” I didn't even rise my head. I headed to my room directly.

The door to my room was closed. But… How come? Even though I didn't have much sleep, I swear I remember the door was completely open this morning when I left the apartment. With a weird feeling in my head, I opened the door… Woo… A candle was lighted up on my desk. My room was filled with aroma from the candle. Ohh.. wait wait… there’s something under the candle! I turned on the light and found a CD and a note for me!

“11/1/05 for my CiCi. P.S. your lunch is in the fridge”

“aaayyyyaaa!!” I screamed, jumping into DWTX’s room. I was so happy that I didn’t even know what to say. The surprise totally waked me up from the dizziness after a long busy day. And I don’t need to dig into my fridge anymore. The DW sandwich (yup, it’s a special taste sandwich that my honey makes every time) is right there, waiting for me to chow it down.

After he left, I took out the CD and started to listen while eating the DW sandwich. That was my best time of the day. There was even a song that I used to listen to over the radio when I was in high school in Beijing. I felt like I was on the bus 937 going back home on the Friday afternoon again. Thanks hon, the CD is really good~

Now, I have to drag my mind back from luxury to the reality. Homework, homework, homework…ehhhh… Jia You!
