How is it today, I look up at the sky
The sunset covered the canvas
Warmth is my experience today
How is it today, I put headphones on my head
The drum lingers in the house
Red lights up my energy again
How is it today, I am sitting by the lake
There were no ripples on the surface of the lake
I forget all the noise and close my eyes
How is it today, I lie down on the bed
The ceiling is black, white and grey
I can’t get rid of the troubles in my mind
How is it today? How is it today.
God created the world in color
Color is the daily status of my mind

It is quite happy today. I haven’t eaten pho in five months since I left New York. I finally found a restaurant selling pho in my hometown. I also miss the vibrant life of Thailand and Vietnam. These countries are very close to my hometown in China. I used to go to these countries every spring to escape the cold winter. Eating pho reminds me of tropical green and all the good things.

This afternoon I climbed a mountain alone, which could overlook the whole city. I was lucky enough to catch the sunset. The orange color of the sunset made me excited with full of energy, even though it was sunset but not sunrise. I am ready for the upcoming end of the semester. Go fighting, Drew

Today could be the unhappiest day of the month. Maybe I lost myself in yesterday’s joyful time. I found that an important thing was left in the taxi taking me back home last night. It was a boring day, too. I did nothing but stayed in my bed as if in a trance. A depressed mood made me feel like the world around me has nothing to do with me.

As of yesterday, My mood is anxious today. Watching the news of the pandemic around the world, I can’t help worrying about the future, worried about whether I can go back to school for classes in the senior year, whether I can graduate on time, and whether I can apply for graduate students like normal days. The present world is lifeless in my thought. I hate the present world now, just as I hate the lifeless winter, everything is so sad.

Super happy today! My first film camera just arrived. I carried it all day and tried to capture some meaningful moments. A fully manual SLR was a new challenge because I completely lost the instant picture preview and auto-focus. I hope this old guy from 50 years ago can bring me good luck! Dear electronic camera, don’t worry about me abandoning you, I promise I will still love you, just as before.
