Before I say what I am about to say, let me say that I love Rahway and it will always be my home, but I need to get the hell out of here. I know I've been asked by some people why I "hate" Rahway so much, and in all honesty, I don't hate it, but when I come back, I almost get a feeling of anxiety. I really can't put my finger on why I feel antsy around here, but I do. It's like I come back to friends and family that I love, but I am also coming back to past judgements. I feel like when your just walking around and you spot someone that you haven't talked to in a really long time, and never really had any friendship with or anything, I almost feel like I am being judged. I don't understand why, but it feels like I'm silently being asked, "You've been away for a year, what the hell have you done thats so great?" and I don't know why I feel that way, but I do.
I still love my friends from Rahway, and hopefully that will never change, but I just feel that there are things with this place that I can do without, and I, in no way, feel that I am better than where I have come from, I just feel that I am coming to terms with a lot of things, and by doing so, I feel like I just need to move on.
Sorry, I needed to get that out, and I know no one cares because I know no one reads this.
In other news, I am moving back to Rowan on Sunday! Mansion Park #7! I am really excited to get back. No more dorm room for me. Most of my good friends except for a few aren't in Mansion Park, which I am disappointed with, but at least they're in the area. We'll be having block parties and get togethers and such like crazy. Can't wait. Plus, I got a MAGIC BULLET! Yes, thats right a magic bullet! The most amazing infomercial product ever! So, we'll definitely be putting that to good use.
I guess, I'll update about my summer now anyway since I doubt I'll be updating for a while. My summer was pretty good. I worked at Home Depot for those of you who didn't know, and I definitely had mixed feelings about the job. I had my own preconceived notions about what it would be like, and I know it's not great to have those, but hell, I'm human. Most of my coworkers in my department were, for the most part,really nice. A lot of them smoked which I really wasn't cool with, but its their lungs. I didn't appreciate, though, the assholes who work in other departments. Many of them act like they're on a high horse, and frankly, they're shit in my book.
Wildwood was amazing. Best year yet! Amazing weather all week. I hit the beach up, pretty much everyday possible, and got a diesel burn in the process, which did happen to turn tan. Holler for having striped legs!! I also got to see two of my favorite Rowan people, Jackie and Brittany, and it was just really awesome getting to hang out with both of them. Hopefully, next summer, I'll be able to see them a whole lot more than just one day on vacation.
I've also been trying to keep myself occupied with different things. Pam and I would take our now "traditional" trips to diners on late nights. I would have Magic Bullet Parties, and would participate in a little not so innocent ding-dong ditching!
Ugh. I'm backing to packing. Damnit.
