Time Remembered
so back from sa now. very fun visit. very condensed as well. saw pretty much everyone I wanted to. reminded of mistakes I've made in handling people, particularly friends who should have been better friends. Cest la vi. I don't know if I'm getting more comfortable with interacting with people. I hope so, but it's always hard to say.
Will make another daytrip to see la rosa and do a few other things.
Looking forward to new semester and new prospects. I'm feeling increasingly pulled in many directions. My friendships are developing in different locales, even within Vandy, and it is becoming quite the juggling act keeping up with them, guitar, working out, frisbee, and of course my silly academic dilligence (sp?). We'll see how it goes. It's amazing how long it has taken me to really start enjoying college. McGill has been a big part of it, but how big I am not sure. I am, at best, a partial presence there. Work and people is too big a load to carry sometimes. Should life be so draining? I wish not. There are too many things I want to do with it and only so much these fingers can do. Then perhaps these dilemmas are the sources of inevitable regret, the ole damned if you do or dont conundrum. what can one say but again cest la vi?
Next semester's schedule as of now includes Japanese Animation, Film Theory (215), Carribean Literature, English Reformation, and Honors English: Metamorphosis. So much reading for these slow eyes. The relative easy breeze of last semester will be gone. Straight A's will probably not be achievable. Hoping that I can successfully submit a vanderbilt summer research proposal. Will see of course. Also hoping that I can drop English Reformation in favor of Rhetoric of Mass Media. Too much art is bad for the soul and its appreciation for art. I need a warm up semester before so thorough a submersion into the world of aesthetics.
Anyways. To those readers I saw, thank you for the pleasant times and the happy smiles. I hope there was as much substance behind them as I believe there was, for I fear I can never know the thinkings and colors of your brains. Until next time, adieu.
