so a few weeks ago, bernard and i got a new office mate. her name? joyce pan. oh dear, two jpans in a single office. the weeks leading up to her arrival were filled with playful pokes and jokes about our names and speculation about the upcoming intraoffice dynamic. luckily, there hasn't been too much confusion, and i've only had a couple calendar events meant for her sent to my inbox. ironically enough, i received a letter in the mail over the weekend from yale university congratulating me on my acceptance to their environmental studies major. hmm, i guess they still have my information from when i went there for summer school.. and they have another student there of the same name.
and while this is silly, all this has simply added to the sense of being non-unique and easily replaceable that has been sitting in the outskirts of my consciousness for the past few months. don't get me wrong, i am quite happy right now - happier than i've been in a long time - and work is keeping me busy and sane, but i just can't seem to shake that feeling. it's odd. oh well, what can you do?
