It's a jungle out there!
It's been a strange few days. My sleeping schedule is now almost on track with the rest of the world, except instead of staying up later than everyone else, now I'm getting up earlier. I'm already tired enough that I know the trend will continue another day, with me waking up somewhere between five and six tomorrow morning. Oh well, it's better than sleeping the day away!
We've been making some mega landscaping changes around our house. Upsides: an awesome-looking house, a slight tan, and a work-out. Downside: a work-out. It wasn't too bad, I guess. I was really annoyed when my parents stopped for lunch, took a three-hour nap, and then decided to get to work again. I can't stand stopping in the middle of a project, especially for that long. If you're done, stop; if you're not done, get back to work!
Church felt very awkward today. I kept coming up with outfits that would be considered immodest, so I had to keep changing my clothes. I ended up looking good (as always! ha) but feeling incredibly stupid. All through the meetings I couldn't help but think how worthless it was for me to be there since I don't believe in any of it. Instead of being angry about that, though, as my brother always was, I just felt guilty. I should have gone to my old class with Devin; I would have been too distracted to be emo. I don't think it's possible to be around Devin for any significant amount of time and remain unhappy-not for me (and Jenny!), at least. I wish I'd thought of that at the time. Blast!
The plan for tomorrow was going to be rock climbing with my sister, her husband, and some of their friends, but she sprained both of her ankles in a fall today while hiking with the same group, so I doubt we're still going. Even if everyone else is, there's no way I'd go with them without Juli, so no rock climbing for us. Boo!
Apparently I like ending paragraphs with exclamations tonight. How odd!
I need more social contact with non-family members and non-church members; those groups just make me feel down. Also, I need hugs. Lots of them. Why does school only last eight months out of the year? I want my life back!
