so i haven't posted in a month... let's see... as of today charles and i have been dating 3 months. hurray :-) we talked the other day and really want to try and make it work over the summer, which i know we can do. i like how we've clicked, it's nice.
BUT on to the summer
i got a job working at an architecture firm right outside hilton head!!!!!!!!!!!!! i went down there this weekend to look at apartments. i'm sharing with a sophmore guy that charles knows that is interning with me. apparently i have nothing to worry about so that makes me feel better. but i'm really excited about it. i found a place for us to live .8 miles from where the office is. we are about a 15 minute drive from the beaches, and 20 minutes from savannah. it's really going to be an experience. charles is either going to cleveland or houston for the summer, so i have nothing holding me here. and i know him hypothetically being here shouldn't hold me here, but i think it would have impacted my decision. but yeah, people are excited about having a place to come vacation from atlanta. i know jeanette, angie, elise and some others already want to come. hehe.
today we went to savannah on our way to atlanta. well not on the way, but we drove over there first. ate on river street and i bought a ring and a pair of earrings from a store down there. yay!
studio is going much better now. i have a C average... but my teachers and i are communicating better. they could tell how much effort i put in to the last review and gave me a C. whereas me working my ass off before wasn't good enough and i got a D :-\ they said if i keep it up i might be able to get a B in the class. but even if i get a C... i don't plan on taking studio next semester! HAHA FUCK YOU BITCHES! heh. people are telling me how jealous they are i don't have to do studio. and i tell them they have a choice, but i don't want a masters in architecture and they get all perplexed. **sigh** i have other goals than to be a straight up architect. i am either looking at residential stuff, or construction and development. i was also considering city planning for a while. we will have to see.
charles has a nice voice. i've been listening to him play the guitar and sing, haha.
my dad moved to alexandria, va. i visited him over spring break. it was weird leaving the DC airport without him. i guess my family is adjusting ok.
oh but yeah, spring break. flew to DC that friday night came back monday, then tuesday drove up to highlands, nc to michelle's cabin. stayed there till saturday with her, bobby, and andre. it was a good time for the most part. michelle got slightly bitchy and friday me, charles, and andre vacated and went driving around and hiking for about 5 hours. and thursday the 3 of us went to glen falls and climbed around the waterfall. the theme of that trip became "charles is an idiot" and "dear laura". the "letter" that andre transcribed to me from charles was "dear laura, your boyfriend thought he was rambo and bit off more than he could chew. signed, god" haha. but yeah, it was a good time. sucked coming back to school though.
oooooooook i have to go move my car so i don't get yet another "expired meter" parking ticket. fucking parking office.
oh, and life has been amazing. i'm in a really good place right now.
