*through tears*, "I need Mike Super!"
Oh my.
What a long long road it has been these last few months. July and August are mostly a blur. And most of that blur is in French.
This week is insane. Fire up for Leadership Safari! Oh my god, we've been so busy. Team Runner is awesome, even if some of the guides don't give us any respect at all. But Lonnie made a good point when he said that the guides really just don't have any idea what we do. "That's team runner. They don't do anything. They're just sort of... there." Fuck you. But we have a good time building stuff and jumping into paper volcanoes and facilitating romances among team members.
But everything else has been going awesome! The new apartment is rockin'! Mary moved in last week so it's nice to have someone else around now. I was living the single life for a while there.
So & So died shortly before I got back from Europe. I now have a new fish and his name is Agadore Sparticus. He's a good fish. But pathetically enough, I really miss So & So. Stupid fish.
There's kind of a lot of other stuff going on, too. Personal type stuff, I guess. I don't think Safari really helps... just because I'm so exhausted, ya know? So by the time I actually get home and have a minute or two to think about stuff... I'm so tired that I blow it way out of proportion in my head. I tend to get emotional when I'm tired. So when this week is done and MAINstage is done... hopefully my life can calm itself down a little bit.
I can't even talk about MAINstage right now, though. Because it's stressing me out so badly I don't even know what to do. Every time I think about it, my stomach hurts. Again-- I think I'm overly tired.
In happier news, I'll be having a BIRTHDAY pretty soon. (A real one!!) And I'm turning the BIG 2-0!
How fucking crazy is that? 20! Gosh. My parents are coming up for the night and I'm rounding up some friends to come with us to dinner. Because honestly, my parents really haven't met hardly any of my friends. And that weirds me out a little.
Random:
I keep thinking that I see CIDEF people all over campus. Last week I coulda swore that I saw Brian. And one of the participants I keep seeing around looks EXACTLY like Jason. It's so trippy. And I also keep speaking random french. The other night, Mary farted and I told her it was ok because "we're in the plein air" (we're outside). How random is that? At least I know the CIDEF did me some good after all. I do kinda miss it, though.
It's so weird. It feels like time was suspended while I was there. Now that I'm back, CIDEF seems like 10 years ago, but also 10 minutes ago, at the same time. It's so so so strange.
OK. I think I best be going to bed now.
I have to take care of some stuff in the morning before I start up with Safari.
Goodnight and have a pleasant tomorrow. Hopefully sleep can help my shattered nerves.
