I'm sick, but I'll be okay. I'll get better.
I've been spending time talking on the phone and online for hours Sunday and Monday. I also watched a few Hey Arnold and Home Movies episodes. I really want to go out, but it's probably much better that I didn't because I think I do feel considerably better today (though still not 100%).
I'm so glad that my classes didn't assign homework. I have some makeup reading that I know no one else read that I'm going to do because well, I like being a good student sometimes. That I and need to study French since that's the kind of thing you study.
I have to get out of my house. It's driving me crazy here. I'm not going to go on any epic hike or anything, just probably walk around the stores of the Southside or Strip or something. I need a nice shower, some breakfast, new clothes, and I know I'll feel a bit better.
I uploaded some pictures from my life lately. They're here:
http://picasaweb.google.com/elyria19/ Yeah. But I've been generally happy lately. Other than art class, nothing in school is horribly stressful. I need to apply for Pitt soon, which requires me writing a personal statement thing. I also have to send transcripts/test scores and get a recommendation...I also need to get some shots soon, along with contacts and my W-2 form from work. I hate calling for errands.
It's weird for me to think the semester's half over already. Although it's been freezing, it's been going really fast. Erin pointed this out when she was like "I'm going to be sad to be on spring break," and we're like "Why?" and then she pointed out it'll be halfway through...yeah. I hope I do get into Pitt. I have confidence I probably will, but I also don't mind waiting another year or semester. I'd really like to get back to Pittsburgh though.
The past few days has really been nice though. I've been talking a lot with this guy, just talking for hours with excellent stories despite each other being so gross and sick. I love long conversations, I really do. I'd just rather be in person, but it has kept me happy and sane while in my bed the past 2 days ( I've barely left it, really. It's so unlike me. That's when I stay home while at "home", when I'm sick..). I look forward to seeing him when we get back to campus.
Yeah, so I got a bus pass so I have to use that. I plan to do a bunch of stuff this week, and I'm so excited. I needed the rest though, and I'm kind of glad I didn't have to worry about lots of schoolwork whilst sick.
Ps. Listen to "Love Letter to Japan". I hate posting lyrics usually, but I just found this song, and I really, really love it, and the video's sweet as well. Go Bird and the Bee for being so amazing...
Ouh ouh ouh
Chorus
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
Ouh ouh ouh
My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me

Ouh ouh ouh
Dearest one, I had a dream
I mouthed the words, the sound came out,
I spoke to you in Japanese
Oh, my love, I cannot see, I heard your name
I know at once there was no place I’d rather be
All at once there was no place that I would rather be
Chorus
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
Ouh ouh ouh
My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me
I packed my bag, I’m on my way
I am prepared for any season
I am prepared to stay
Here is my heart, my beating heart
Oh, how I’m longing for this love affair to start
How I’m longing for this love affair to finally start
Chorus
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
Ouh ouh ouh
My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me
Ouh ouh ouh
Nishi kara higashi heto
Anata no tokoro nitondekitano
Touimishinori oh
Anatanosoba ni itakute
Kono omoi oh subete
Anata ni sasagemasu
Oh oh oh
Chorus
From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me
Chorus
From the west to the east
All this way to be close
All my heart
