Back to Reality
Naeem left early this morning ( like 6am) so he could get to a retreat! I was a bit depressed so I ended up watching some 30 Rock and then collapsing.
About 4 hours later the day got immensely better :) I was able to talk to Naeem’s sis-in-law about all my parent drama (essentially I was backed into telling them about Naeem this break, and my relationship with them is pretty shitty right now) Talking to her was great because it finally made me focus on the things I want, not what everyone else think I should do/what I should do to keep them happy. It was really liberating :)
For the rest of the day I ended up cleaning up the room/doing some grocery shopping. I’m excited about dinner tonight, I think I’m going to modify this veggie dish to have it with chicken:

speaking of cooking, Naeem and I ate pretty well yesterday! For lunch Naeem made some seared Ahi tuna, and I made an Asian vegetable dish to go with it, and at night Naeem made is AMAZING risotto and I made this French chicken dish and both turned out amazing!
here’s the recipe for the French chicken dish!

I’m really glad Naeem’s gotten be back into the groove of cooking. I really hope I can keep this up this semester!
