Well, this is a very late entry. Anyway... Here I am on my bed last weekend when I was sick. The bottom half of my bed is in front of the window. I put my pillow down there in the mornings when the suns comes in. I pretend it's a daybed. Behind me you can see the fern in the windowsill and a bit of the lawn of the courtyard. My hair is a bit messed up, but that's because I took my shower at 3.30 am. when I couldn't sleep. I have on my wool sweater. I usually can't wear it because it's too warm, but today when I had it on I still had chills. Oh, I have a scarf on too, but that is because I wanted to wear it than having any medical reason. My eyes are closed--I must have just dozed off to sleep. The book next to me is _To the Lighthouse_. Unfortunately I still had to do schoolwork whilst ill. Yeah, some parts of the photo seemed a bit washed out, but as I said that's because the sun was very bright and strong that morning. Although you can't see it, on my desk I had my walkman and the tinny-sounding speakers set up. I was listening to the cassette my father made me--classical music. It somehow seemed proper to listen to it then. If this photo had been taken later in the day, the same exact scene would have been set up, except, perhaps, at night. The window panes would have reflected the flash so parts would still be washed out. Some things are unavoidable.
