First Day of School
Dear Dad,, originally uploaded by kristendb.
Holy crap. What a day.
Waiting in 5 degree weather for the bus.
Froze my fingers off.
Getting on the bus. Never had rode a city bus in my life.
Not knowing quite what to do. Hoping to God, it was going to drop
me off close to class.
It did just that.
Got off the bus. I was practically almost sobbing.
Emotions were way too much about everything.
My coping skills just aren't what they used to be.
Walked up the stairs. And there was the door to the lecture hall.
I wanted to get sick.
Pulled myself together. Walked into the room.
Took my seat. In the middle on the aisle.
About 400 other students.
I wasn't the oldest. I saw a Asian lady well into her 70s.
Class seems to look like a lot of work. I'm ready, I guess.
Walked out of class over to my mom's office. She drove me back to my car at work. Thank God.
I leave tomorrow for Sarasota. This below zero weather can bite me.
I need a hug like nobody's business.
I walked out of class feeling very alone. I didn't have anyone I could call to tell them all about it.
Thank goodness I have you guys.
