10. 500 Days of Summer

22: Simple Things.

I went on a short trip to San Francisco this summer, and amidst the brief yet memorable experience I realized what journey I needed to be on. There was something just so homely about that city, something that words cannot describe or a picture cannot capture--it was what my heart felt while I was there, something that I took back home with me.

"When one door closes, another opens..." -Alexander Graham

In exactly one month, I turn 22. I will be leaving behind 21 years of my life and venturing off into my 22nd year of life. I'm not sure what to make of 22: hopeful, anxious, excited, uncertain, and indifferent are just a mere preview of the what I have felt about this coming age. 22.
