Out of the loop
I've been really out of the loop these past 3 weeks. It was a 3-week hell week, capped off with immersion this weekend. Finally back on track (sort of), and still odd things are happening. The irregularity is becoming regular that it just makes me wonder exactly how life is shaping up lately.
On the other hand, I went to immersion with someone I used to sneer at. Based on [very biased] accounts of people, I grew to dislike her even before really getting to know her. Apparently, she felt the same way about me, based now on...well, other things that didn't directly concern the two of us. One weekend later, I have a new friend. Lesson learned: Just don't judge people. Although I have to say I'm somewhat proud of myself for not letting the initial perception get in the way of that whole UBE session. :)
And lastly, a public apology to all friends: I know I've been bland and unresponsive, and maybe even oblivious to your needs+feelings+thoughts. I've just been busy with school+family+other things outside school, and it gets overwhelming sometimes. I suppose it's not an excuse, which is really why I'm apologizing. I really am sorry. Also, pseudo-senioritis is kicking in. I find it's hard to make congruent you guys leaving and me choosing to stay for another year. I don't regret it. The choice was made for myself. But it doesn't mean it doesn't make me sad and panicky inside.
P.S. Congratulations to my brother who's now a certified Physical Therapist. He passed the board and took his oath today. May you break all the right bones and be able to put them back together. :)
