I finished by Bio 104 exam this morning around 8/8:30 am. So friggin early, I had to leave no later than 6:30 am to get to class on time. I'm pretty confident that I did well, it was 60% material we've already covered and that was the easy part.
I LOVE my DSL. My god, I can't believe that I was on dial-up for so long, now I'm back to my downloading and pirating music. Hehe. I will definitely be online more often now.
Recently I've run into some old friends and it's always nice to see how people are doing. Like Jesse (one of the twins) saw him at blockbuster and he said he's married now and works two jobs. My god, things change. It's been 2 years since I graduated and while I was making a CD for Chanta containing pictures of the last 3 years, I reminisced about all the good times. There are so many pictures of us (Chanta, Scooby, Michelle and I) and there are so many phases I went through. Pictures of me overweight, me thin, me with black hair, me with and without bangs... pictures of Chanta before and after her surgery. So many things, so many memories. The things I miss about high school are lacrosse and not have so many responsibilties. I didn't have so many bills back then and I didn't have to worry about so many things. I loved the sport I played, I was in real good shape and just lived it up.
I realized how much I've changed between an incident that happened this past friday and just having conversations with different people. I know I'm a lot less trusting and very judgemental, these could be good or bad things. I know I have an attitude, I'm opinionated, and independent. In high school I could not account for all those traits. I've also realized I've become boring and uptight. Somewhat boring. Friday a bunch of us went off-roading, at least we were supposed to. There's 7 of us in my friend's very illegal old, beat up Dodge Charger and we go offroad on this contruction site. My god, I was panicing the entire time about getting in trouble and about all the cliffs and drops offs around us, I swear with Thomas driving we were going to die or get into serious trouble. I just needed them to pass me to bowl so I could shut the hell up. Haha. But really, I'm sure everyone changes to some extent as they leave their adolesence behind and enter adulthood. I know Scooby and Chanta have learned MANY life lessons in her past year out on her own as well as me. I really wouldn't go back to change anything because I love my life and my relationships with everyone now.
I do want to say that I am very happy that Michelle has moved back up to VA! We've been hanging out lately, mostly going out to eat and stuff but I love that girl. We've been through some shit, had some misunderstandings, I've been a complete and utter bitch to her and she's still there. That's my girl, she was my girl when I first moved into the new house in Newport, my girl through so much and my girl now. Yeah, she's made some dumb decisions, but definitely grown up a lot. Hopefully we'll be able to hang out some more.
That's it for now. There's talks of going to Reno, NV this summer to visit the family on the west coast but nothing is for sure, besides it'll probably just be my sister going. To be honest, I'm not exactly sure of how I would tolerate my American family. I'd rather go to Korea where I can barely communicate with that side of the family but I would KNOW that they love me and that they're paying attention to me. I can't say the same for the American side, but I can't jump to conclusions before I actually see them. I haven't seen the American side for... at least 6-8 years. Woah. Well... like I said we'll see because I have summer classes during the month of July.
Take care everyone.
