another pair of homeless pants
It snowed today. And, I am going to continue to wear flip flops for as long as possible.
Today in the cafeteria there were note cards on the tables advertising free light therapy on campus. That's crazy because i have always joked about that even before i came here.
Is it weird that my most recent feeling of home and comfort was today when I went to the little local organic food store.. It's weird, how little things that you didn't expect can cheer you up. I was upset today so i went on a long walk. I ended up at the natural food store where the atmosphere sort of calmed me. i just don't know.
When you are walking outside do you ever realize that alot of the time you forget to look up? I do, especially at night. And, it is a crazy feeling when you realize that and then see how pretty it is. And, then I think, how could i forget something as simple as that?
Today while i was walking around I realized that i have only really been on two streets in the village the entire time that i have been here, not that there are many more streets than that... but, there has to be something beyond that even if it is just houses. And, i realized how little exploring i have actually done here and i miss it because exploring has always given me a sense of freedom. And then i thought of all of the people who have lived their entire lives without leaving their state or home area and that there are people here who have never even seen the ocean. and it makes me kind of sad. because i realized that i sometimes forget about all of the oppertunities and things out there.
On another note i haven't had a full night of sleep in the past two weeks. I went to bed at 6:30 this morning and then woke up again for my 9:00 class, cause i was working on a painting. I sleep the most in the middle of the day. It's kind of interesting not having a set sleeping pattern. i wonder if that is bad for you? Today our teachers said that they realize that most of us haven't been getting enough sleep because of all of the work that they have been assigning, so they let us out of class 30 min early... And, some kid said that 30 totally makes up for all of the nights in a row with barely any sleep.. totally. and just laughed.
I'm glad that it is the weekend so that i have more time for homework.
