SO quite a lot has happened lately. Exams are over, papers are in. I have one semester left of college. Freaky! Believe it or not I had a meeting with a career counselor this week and she totally helped me come up with ideas for post-graduation and looked over my resume. Holly and I threw a ridiculously large and insanely awesome party last Friday. But now I don't want to smell or see alcohol for a while. We kept finding strange things around the apartment after the party. Evidently I lost both of my earrings at some point. I found one outside next to the doormat and one inside under the round chair. I also found a boy sleeping on my sofa the next morning. Scandal! Anyway, it was an experience. Clearly Holly and I do not do this sort of thing regularly so it was an Event To Be Remembered. Evan Moody ended up under our kitchen table, Holly said some rude things to our guests, and I went around hugging everyone. I remember telling Chukuma repeatedly that he was beautiful. I remember hiding Kate's truffles in with my pots and pans. I remember telling Jake's friend Megan that I would remember her name the next day. She did not believe me. There's also a lot I don't remember. Like the last two hours.
Saturday life returned to normal. All of my exams sucked and were harder than they should have been. But my grades are fine, of course. I feel like such a dork that I'm actually getting mad about my A-'s because it brings down my GPA like a tenth of a point. Someone shoot me.
Hattie and I made fudge today and had automotive adventures. This weekend ASU plays in the AA-I division championship in Chattanooga. I haven't decided if I am going or not. I'd like to go cause it's the first and last time ASU will probably do well. EVER. And Chattanooga is really close. On the other hand, tickets cost $20. Which I can't really afford to spend.
Tonight I had dinner with Sara and Stephanie and Jon and Tiff and Charlie. Then we went out with some of the IRAers and went to Murphy's and Macado's. I was the DD and then helped some rugby kids get their disgustingly drunk and belligerent friend home. It was awful. I told him I would kick him in the ass if he puked in my car and his girlfriend gave me $5 for helping. I almost told her she was a good girlfriend to him but then I realized she wouldn't have let him get that trashed if she really was a good friend.
Tomorrow morning I leave for Knoxville and I miss Boone already. I know I don't really want to stay cause there's nothing to do and everyone is leaving. At the same time there's so much I have to do when I get back to Knoxville I'd really like to put it off. I think Gray is coming in town soon so hopefully I will get to spend time with her. She is my sanity.
It's kind of a strange feeling to think about your life and realize you're exactly where you want to be. It's not something I'm used to. But I can get used to it. I'm really excited about the next 5 months and beyond. It's all a great big "?" and that's perfect.
