It's been a couple of weeks...
Well, it's been a couple of weeks since I've done an "official" update...
The last time I updated was definitely spring break. Since then, I've been home and gotten in trouble like it was my job. Really long story. So the story begins when I decided that I wanted to go home without my parents knowledge. Yeah, big reminder for next time: don't go to a public place where you know everyone and where your parents are going to go later. I went to my high school's musical, which was good, but not great. Anyway, I saw a ton of people that I knew including my sister, but I told her not to tell. This was all swell and good until my parents came the next night and saw all the people that I had seen earlier. They said "Oh it was great seeing Sam last night...." I was immediately busted from that point on. It sucked. I just can't go under my parent's radar for the weekend. They had to find out. It was inevitable, I suppose. I know way too many people.
So, not to be obsessive or anything, but there's this girl that's really pretty and fun and stuff (and who I like and she knows it [thanks to AIM and her roommate]). We're totally going for coffee. Enough said about that. There may be others, but I'm not sure I want to take the plunge with them quite yet.
I went to my grandma's for Easter. I got jack squat in my basket this year. I got clothes (honestly, who gets clothes in their Easter baskets? WTF?) and a bunch of random junk that I totally don't need and that will just clutter up my already filthy dorm room/desk. I didn't get any candy. I didn't get any cool stuff. Just dumb stuff. It depressed me, but I guess I'm over it now.
I had an 8 page rough draft due this morning. It wasn't done. I still need like 4 more pages of material and a reference list. I have a ton of material, I just have to refine it and put it on paper. It will take time, but I'm okay with that.
So, I was talking with a friend of mine and discussing how I can't start a relationship and she quoted the same song to me twice (which is amazing in and of itself). The song was "There's a fine, fine line" from the musical "Avenue Q". It's a great song and the lines she quoted were "I guess if someone doesn't love you back, it isn't such a crime" and "you gotta go after the things you want while you're still in your prime". This is song writing at it's best. The first quote really touched home for me because that's what I've been worried about: the denial and rejection. The second hit me even more so because I am a timid person even though I may not seem that way. I really want to have a relationship, but I'm too afraid to walk up to a girl and say "I like you". It's not that hard, however, I'm one of those weird kids in that I'm initially attracted to someone and then I grow to like them after I know them better. That's just the way I do things. I really do need to bite the bullet, so to speak, and just come out with it, instead of wallowing and daydreaming in my own little fantasy world where everything works out and everyone I like ends up liking me. "I guess if someone doesn't love you back, it isn't such a crime..." Amazing!!!
Well, that should do it... I've rambled on enough... If you have any comments, you know where to leave them... That's all for now... Good bye...
