After reading Micah's super long entry, I felt like updating.
I am really sad right now. Not like "oh, my life is terrible" sad, but the "oh, winter break is coming" sad. I wasn't supposed to get this. I have amazing plans for winter break, and don't get me wrong, I ridiculously excited for those, but seeing my friends move out still gets me. I spend time most every day with many of these people. Knowing that I won't see them, or even talk to them for a month is hard. I know that the college life is filled with luxury and all, and I am very thankful for it, but I feel like juggling of two lives is just a weird concept. This guy Darren (I think that is his name) was in Abbie's room last night, and he was saying he hates fall quarter, because everyone gets close for ten weeks, and then we leave for six. And while I prefer this set up to other universities, like OSU where you have the longer summer, I just can't stand the idea of losing these people for another six weeks. I won't know what is going on in their lives for that time, and then when we come back, it takes a few weeks to slip back into school routine.
On another note, I am soooooo beyond excited for my trip. It is weird because people seem to think that I need to squeeze things in, and not waste my time, but the wasting of time is kinda what I want to do. I want to experience the everyday things of different parts of Europe, if that makes any sense. For some reason I'm just more interested in that. I don't like the idea of rushing through a city and never really seeing it. Also, people find my locations odd, but fact is, I don't really care where we go. Maybe I am too laid back, but to me, I just want to really see everywhere I go, where it is isn't so important.
