Well, i went to the movies tonight, and that was the first time in forever that i actually sobbed in a movie. I cry at movies all the time, but Rent made me absolutely bawl! It was a wonderful movie... i'd go right back and see it again, but i don't think i can handle the stress of it... plus i know my bank account can't handle another movie right now. Oh well... i think i'll go see some of those other movies i really want to see next week. I'm just in a movie mood lately. It was so nice to just get out and forget about school for a while. Lately i feel like i'm consumed by it, and its getting old. I'm very ready for Christmas break! Lately Christmas has been so weird... no one is in the "Christmas" mood at college... i guess everyone is stressed out about money and grades and finals and stuff, but its so different from when you were a kid and all you had to think about was the many, many days before you could have your presents. Oh well... i know i can't go back to that, but it sure would be wonderful... very wonderful.
Its funny how small things can bring back big memories. Amanda got a splinter in her hand, and the first thing that i knew, i flashed back to a little girl getting a splinter in her hand, and her grandfather putting her up on the counter, and talking to her as he lovingly tried to get it out so it wouldn't get infected. Its funny how i would run as if my life depended on it, but my sister would just let him take splinters out without blinking an eye. My grandfather held my complete trust, until he wanted to help me with anything like that... i don't do scary blood or hurt-anything. Oh well... just one of those things.
Well, i should probably think about getting some sleep... what an idea, i know!
