It's never too early to be sentimental
Since I haven't written in Livejournal much for the past year or so, I'm going to make this one good. Let's talk about this year and graduating and ch-ch-changes. As far as I'm concerned, here's how the next few weeks are going to go: STRESSSTRESSSTRESSSTRESSWORKSTRESSWORKSTRESS/NEWBOYNEWBOYNEWBOY/BEER/RACHELMADDOW/DIPLOMA.
I am freaking out about schoolwork, but here's the thing - lately I care so little that I don't even stress out about the fact that I don't care! Not a great motivator! The only thing that gets me to sit down and start typing is the thought of grad school and summer in Brooklyn and all those good things that happen when I'm a free woman.
Then there's the new boy. I am not going to write a lot about him because I'm utterly smitten and would go on forever. He's fuckin great though. Ok, one thing: for one of our first dates he took me to a HOT TUB ON A ROOF UNDER THE STARS. What is a person supposed to do with a boy like that??
Then there's beer! I expect there to be many sentimental parties where we get drunk and reminisce, go down to the boathouse at night, go swimming in the water hole, sing, sing, sing, and in general celebrate the best thing about Smith (for me at least) - each other.
Rachel Maddow! She will come and speak and she will be wise and solve my problems. The end.
Diploma - why are they even bothering? I feel like the paper it's printed on is worth more.
All of us are facing this change differently. Me, I feel like a deer in headlights. IT WILL ALL BE OVER SOON AND THEN I'LL BE REAL.
