So I have been having really bad/sad dreams lately and I know why. It's the whole VTech thing. It really freaked me out for more than one reason. My roommate, Kate, and my friend, Tina, both have very good friends that go to Tech. Kate's friend Robby actually saw the shooter outside his dorm. Kate and Tina both took the news of the shooting very well considering the circumstances. I honestly have no idea what I would have done in the same situation. I don't know how they managed to go to class at all, but they did. That evening after I finished my homework and answered Kate's phone for her and talked to Robby while I tried to find her, I returned to my room and thought about the whole incident. Robby actually asked me how I was doing and I couldn't believe it. It should have been me asking him not the other way around. The shooting really shook me up. I've had dreams about there being a shooting here and at UMO and either my friends dying or me dying before I got a chance to apologize to Tom and tell everyone I love them. My mom and brother and sister have been in New Mexico this past week and they would have had to rush here/home and it really scared me. I don't know if it's the fact that I'm 4 hours from Tech or that I've met Robby or that one of my really good friends has a best friend there, but it really scared me.
In other news, I have one week of classes left and then a week of finals before I can go home and relax. It will be so nice to be home again. The weather here this past week was horrible. It was rainy, cloudy, and cold. It even snowed Easter weekend. This weekend is already shaping up to be excellent with temps in the 70s and very sunny. However, it has gotten tedious here at school with drama everywhere. I really can't wait to see Justin next weekend. It has been 3 weeks so far since I've last seen him. I hate long distance relationships. Although it helps that I talk to every night before bed. Well I think that's all for now. I'm really gettting good at this updating thing.
