school's over for the semester and i'm feeling quite ...sad isn't the right word...reminiscent? nostalgic? forlorn...that's it. when i moved to Richmond in June, i wasn't real happy about it. i didn't know anyone, i hated my apt, i felt way too close to backhome to be comfortable. my best friend had said she was so excited about me moving closer so we could see each other more. six months and one December later, she still hasn't been here--she blames it on my having a cat since she's allergic, but i was here 2 weeks before i got the cat and she even came to richmond shopping once and didn't tell me until afterward. (wow, didn't mean to spill all that on ya) i was questioning why i even came back to school. i was lonely and miserable and broke.
Well, i'm still broke for the most part but i'm not lonely or miserable anymore. I met some really great people in my classes. Jen from english with the genius dog named Oscar (he's too short for his g/f so he stacked up couch cushions in the floor and stood on them). Of course, Austin from english kept me laughing and so did Matt. But honestly, i'm prolly never gonna see them again.
art class is different however. i made some great friends in there. i connected with Debi first b/c we were both second-timers. Myke piqued my interest b/c he made me laugh. Andi and Erica were a surprise treat b/c i didn't think i had anything in common with them. and then came dinner on Thursdays.
I can't wait for the rest of school so i can get to know these wonderful people some more. All i can say is God Bless Travis Townsend....
