cynic
noun
1. A person who believes that people are motivated purely by self-interest rather than acting for honourable or unselfish reasons.
2. A person who questions whether something will happen or is worthwhile.
Some time between Tosca Cafe (house cappuccino, full of brandy) and Cafe de la Presse (poulet roti, table for one by the window), I became a bit of a cynic.
I still don’t know what the hell it is I’m looking for here, but right now, I no longer really believe that I’ll find it.

I’m sure it takes more than a short space of time to turn you into a cynic. Traveling puts one in an interesting head space though, one can feel EVERYTHING. Have an awesome time, I’m envious and proud of you! There is much affection here for you, Rae. Hugs!
Heh, yes to the feeling EVERYTHING.
Miss you, lovely. I’ll see you in about a week!
Traveling alone is a strange beast. It makes you feel all the feelings, all the time. It’s all the elation and all the loneliness at once. But… it makes you better, you know?
That’s exactly it – I was feeling so goddamn lonely AND incredibly happy all at once. But yes, it does make you better. Also, squee, I’m meeting you soon!
