Finally finished putting up all of the various things I like having on my walls. There wasn't room for everything I brought, but I've got most of the best stuff up there, and now I'm happy with the way my walls look.
I re-read the artcles about Mr. Schofield in the RT Magazine (Middletown High's newspaper) from November 2004. Every now and then I remember how amazing he was, and get a little sad, but also get really happy. I was really lucky to have gotten to know him.
I've been talking to my father a lot more, via e-mail and letters, mostly, and I just don't know what I'd do if he were to die as suddenly as Schodawg did. He is so, so important to me. As is my mother, my brother, and many other people in my life. Sometimes I feel like I take friendships for granted. I hope everyone I care about knows that I care about them. I wouldn't be who I am today without the influence of lots of people.
Speaking of people I care about, Laurel is coming here today! The bus she was on last night broke down around 10 pm, so she's getting here later than expected, but it shouldn't be too late. I'm so excited. I haven't seen her since December 26th. That's too long. I feel like our relationship thrives when we've got a little distance between us, but 2 months and an ocean apart is a bit much.
It's lunch time, but I'm not hungry and I still have laundry in the dryer. I'll walk to the dining hall, anyway.
