rome: revising classwork by fountains with gorgeous sculptures, reading small yellow-paged books, riding a hand-me-down bicycle to classes, ancient languages, physics, smelling of wild violets as you rush into the lecture hall
sydney: humming to yourself as you take notes, studying by a big window with a breathtaking view, or beside a fish tank where you can hear the water bubbling, cream soda, mechanical pencils, pleated skirts
