Second semester starts in a week. And I can't believe it. The first semester went so quickly, and the fact that this will be my last semester of high school is making me more and more anxious to get out of here. That's been my general feeling lately- "get me the hell out of here!". I don't find a whole lot of enjoyment in the stuff I do here. I just want something new; new surroundings, new goals, new goings on, new faces. Hopefully once the stress of exams and such goes away, I will feel differently. Because I feel like that is a crappy way to spend time feeling.
I sent in my housing stuff for Eau Claire last week. And also found out that Kim is going to EC as well. Brian and I were the EC pong team last night at Luber's...and represented our school quite sadly. haha.
This break I was a little suprised with how I spent my time. When everyone first came home I was really excited to see everyone and for all of us to hang out all the time like we did during summer. I saw some people 2, 3 maybe 4 times. But that's how things go. I spent most of my time with just a few people who I keep in good touch with when they're away. I'm glad that Katie and I have become such good friends through her moving away. It's interesting that it took her moving for us to get this close. I hate that some people have such blatantly negative things to say about her. Because dispite the fact that someone else may not like her and think she's a giant bitch, we're great friends and I'm sorry they feel that way. Maybe we get along so well cause we're both bitchy...good possibility. ha.
Spain was the most amazing experience of my life. Everything was beautiful and historical and it really brought me down to Earth and made me feel small, but in a good way. It was so humbling and mind opening. I loved being thrown into another culture and seeing the differences and language barriers. It was difficult but, again, very humbling. It was just so once in a lifetime; the parade, the music, the sights, everything. I'm really, really thankful to have been able to go.
My parents told me this past week that come this summer I'm going to have to pay rent or move out. It was a really rude, abrupt awakening to adulthood and that it's quickly approaching...I don't like it. But I also can't stop it. I turn eighteen in twelve days. And I graduate in five months. I went to the hut after they told me and I was done fighting with my mom about it. Aaron was really nice and comforting. Thank God I'm going to college half an hour from him; it seems like every time he leaves for college and then comes home he becomes a bigger part of my life. Sara disapproves, and for once I really don't care. I know she has what she percieves as my best interest in mind, but it doesn't change anything for me.
Idk what else.
twelve days until I'm eighteen.
less than five months until I graduate.
this time next year, I'll be heading back home, which won't mean Germantown anymore.
I have a lot to look forward to. :]
