I haven't updated in quite a while, but I don't suppose anyone was too worried. I doubt that anyone is going to read this entry much anyway, aside maybe to skim through it and look for controversial phrases and what not. A lot has happened since December or so when I last bothered with this thing.
Christmas break was good and bad for various reasons. Dee and my father were equally awful and kind to me. I was accused of running a whore-house for being fifteen minutes late and got into a giant fight one night over whether I allowed Damon to sign my breasts or not, but most of you already knew that. My car was totaled the first night I was back by a careless driver who ran a stop-sign on 10th and Pierce. I now have a different car that runs slightly better but leaks in bad weather.
I will not be attending Indiana University next Fall due to complications with the application process. By "complications" I mean my boyfriend procrastinated on applying to the point of missing the deadline. I don't know how I feel about this, despite the fact that I've known for a while now. I suppose I should decide exactly what it is I feel and want to say about it as said boyfriend is visiting me next weekend. He did write me a terribly sweet letter apologizing for his emotional-detatchment as of late, which really melted my heart all over again.
Because I will be staying at Iowa State next year I've been considering getting an appartment. Oddly enough, I've been looking at one with Andy and two of his good friends. The appartment is very nice. I would have my own bedroom and bathroom with furnishings and all sorts of other conviences for around $350 a month. The only downside is that the apartments are very far from campus, but they do have their own shuttle and the CyRide goes by there every so often.
Also, I have decided to apply for the Studio Arts program here at Iowa State. The program is actually very nice and I would be able to experience a lot of different studio aspects. With this in mind, when I transfered schools I would have a better idea as to what I want my studio focuses to be.
In other news: Mandie e-mailed me and we were going to get lunch today, but she caught an illness, which is really too bad. On the upside, this gives me a bit more time to sort out my thoughts and decide exactly what I need and want to say/get out. 9 months of thoughts and feelings to sort through take a bit of time.
Those are the major events that come to mind. I'm really excited about seeing Douglas next weekend and I'm *mostly* caught up in homework. I only have a bit of reading to do to get myself completely a head of the game. Next week is the beginning of my first exams so I'll have to study up a bit. I feel as if I'm not putting enough effort into classes so far, but I have wonderful grades, so I suppose it's only that classes aren't too difficult . . . yet.
