we flew over a continent and an ocean. over alaska and northern siberia. as we were gliding over the clouds, i wondered about the icy mountains below and the snow covered world. i imagined a world of glittering crystal and cold, blue waters. of talking bears and caribou-people. i imagined the mountain tops reaching high in the sky and hitting us. and as we were crashing and sliding down into a winter-world, i wondered if we would have to eat each other to survive.
they took my bunny at the airport. they kept her for a few days, and my heart ached to see her go. i knew she was scared and angry from the trip over the world. rabbits are not meant to fly, they are ground creatures, and like the constant smell of the earth to fill them. i wish i could have given her wings and taught her how to fly so that she wouldn't have had to be so scared and lonely in the cargo of a machine too loud for her soft ears. i can't wait to go and pick her up on the weekend, so i can bring her home and tell her everything is alright. so we can play and run and hide and seek and cuddle, until all traces of these events are gone. fortunately, bunnies have very small memories as they have very small brains.
jet lag and tired. but home and happy. we have a nice apartment full of light and decorated with big (ugly but) cheery bright pink flowers on the walls and drapes. we have a pink, minuscule bathtub, and an eeyore-plush to keep us company. big windows and lots of light.
i like the sound of korean, and the food. the school seems nice. i have books, and the internet, and pencils, and papers. and i have my sleepybear. if i can catch some sleep, i will be a very happy girl.
