(no subject)
Well, here's what's been going on in my life:
1. I nearly killed myself with finals, considering that I had to do two honors contracts, a research proposal, write an essay, edit two essays, and take 5 finals and 3 tests in the last two weeks.
2. I got a job as a hostess at Rib Crib. It's not the best job, but we need money.
I really thought I would have more than two points...
I've been thinking about growing up. I used to have this Peter Pan mentality, that I would remain a child no matter what, but I have realized that I can't do that. Growing up means missing things. I talked to my mom tonight, and she was telling me about the people from my church that are getting married and even a few that have died. I haven't been back to Houston since the wedding, and now that Mom and Dad moved, who knows when (or if) I'll go back?
I'm scared of having a real job.
I've always hated moving on. We moved a lot as a kid, and maybe it gave me separation anxiety or something, but I think it's really sad that I can't remain close to my high school friends forever. I am still in contact with a handful of my high school friends, but there are some I haven't talked to in years and don't even know how to contact them now. I'm glad to have lost contact with most of my graduating class, but it is kind of sad knowing that I have friends that I may never see again. Thank goodness for the internet and Facebook. :-p
I'm trying to read Le Morte d'Arthur over the break. It's awfully long though, so I don't know if I'll make it. I'm also trying to finish the Bible. I try every year and I fail every year. I finished Daniel this year, so I don't know if I can read 12 minor prophets and the entire New Testament in two weeks, but it's worth a try.
Jameson and I are having a New Year's Eve party. So far, we have 3 confirmed guest. That makes 5 people, which almost fills our tiny apartment to capacity, but if you're going to be in the Searcy are with nothing to do on Dec. 31, let me know. You're welcome to come, and I really mean that. Anyone (presuming we've met at some point).
*hugs to all*
