Been a While, Huh?
Well, to me, it feels like it's been a while since I updated. Today starts the first day back from spring break. Boy, did I ever dread it. While it didn't suck as much as it could have (my surprise quiz I forgot about this morning wasn't too hard...good thing I kind of pay attention in that class sometimes), I still didn't want to go to class, or even get up this morning for work. (Too cozy!!!)
--------------------------------
Today is also kind of strange for me, for some reason. I keep on remembering things from the past. Not bad things, surprisingly (it's generally the case that I remember the bad things over the good). But the times that I had fun, and love, and also miss very much. It's a strange feeling, and anything conjured it, such as my Cherry Coke I'm drinking to the song I'm listening to, to even conversations and people I talked to today. I'll explain...
The Cherry Coke from my childhood. I was still in grade school when my classmates would go to Ohio Skate in Maumee on Friday nights for roller skating and pizza, and all that socializing stuff. I didn't go very often, but whenever I did, I always got a Cherry Pepsi. That's the only time I'd drink cherry pop, and now anytime I drink a cherry pop, I think about it. It makes me smile, to remember the days where I didn't have to worry about a whole lot, other than school. I miss those days, but it's not depressing to me that those days are gone.
Next up, the song. I was listening to the Gorillaz's Feel Good Inc., and while this is a newer song, it still kind of has a weird impact on me for some reason. It just reminds me of my freshman year of college. All the transitions, the people I met, and the classes I took. As well as all the fun times I had when I used to hang out with Taylor, Matt, Randall and Bill. But again, those times are over. Taylor's in Japan, and the other 3 I've kind of lost touch with. Well...not completely lost touch with any of them, I just don't talk to them a whole lot anymore, not like I used to. While, again, I'm not depressed about the times gone, I'm happy to remember them, and what I've learned from them, as well as the other experiences.
It's strange, sometimes, when you see people from grade school at random places in your daily life. On Friday, my mom, Brandon and I went to Panera in BG. I was very surprised to see a friend from grade school there, sitting and eating with her mom. We used to be in girl scouts together, and her mom was the leader of the troupe. Needless to say, we talked for quite a bit before we sat down and ate too. And today, while talking and hanging out with Meg before her class, I see another girl from grade school, who's now engaged! While it was brief, it was still strange. I've also seen a lot of friends from high school. It's weird, but also a pleasant surprise!
--------------------------------
Well...that's about it. Not too much else has changed in my life right now. I'm kind of bored with school, anxious for the weather to change, and wanting to get another job. But I expect that's how most people feel about now too.
The first week back from spring break doesn't seem to be too stressful, which is nice. It does have quite a workload, though.
Tomorrow - read, classes, and production work. I wish I could go and hang out with Leah on her birthday, but I have no money :(
Wednesday - work 6-11, classes, and a quiz at 5:45. Gotta study!!!!
Thursday - more reading, and homework. I also have production work at 6pm...ugh
Friday - work 6-11, then free time!!!
