Alright, so I'm not even gonna try and deny it anymore: Footloose is over. And I miss that fuggin group of hotties an uncanny amount already! I'm going to keep the memories I have from this summer locked away in my heart forever. Haha that line is dedicated to the dialogue in Footloose...can you say Holy cheesy, Batman!?
BUT
In order to keep my sanity, I have decided that I am going to look towards the future, stare my sophomore year in the face and say "Hey, bitch! I OWN YOU!!" Yes, I plan on diving in head first. I plan on making my dreams a reality. The main inspiration of this heightened happiness is my lovely schedule made up of the following classes:
Survey of American Literature
Review of Spanish
Education 500 (I have to go to the department to switch into it first though)
Honors Intro to Critical Analysis
Something else that is very exciting: I am going to finally declare my major. My days of being the girl who is perpetually questioning her direction in life are numbered. I am going to major in English Teaching.
**** THIS JUST IN **** I think I MIGHT declare theatre as my minor. I have only done two shows and I'm not saying I'm going to try and become a famous Broadway star or something. All I know is that theatre has gotten under my skin and I want it to be a part of my life in one way or another - even if that means I simply know a whole lot about it or work backstage.
Another pressing issue in my life is my desire to change schools. I am NOT going to do any UNH bashing right now, don't get me wrong. I think UNH is a great school with so much to offer certain students, and a lot to offer to me. However, it can't offer me everything because I dream of school in Boston surrounded by peers that challenge me intellectually and help me grow into the most intelligent woman I can be. I hope that doesn't sound snobby, because I don't intend it to. The bottom line is that UNH doesn't inspire me. That doesn't mean I haven't had some darn good times there, that I haven't met some great people that I love and cherish, or even that I haven't learned a lot already. It just means that I want to live my life the way I envision it. I have a school in mind and I plan on working very hard to be able to transfer there for my last two years of college.
Wow...this has been really long - my longest entry to date - and I don't know if anyone even cares, but I can't wait to start getting control of my life. I hope that I don't get so busy that I lose contact with people... Everyone should know that I love them no matter what, I just need to get my life in order! It's time to turn it around and put my feet on the ground....now take a hold of my souuuuuuuullllll!!!
Oh man, Footloose is an inspiration :) So are the people in it...I love you guys so much!!
Love,
Linds
