... although my life is rather uninteresting. Oh, where to begin...

The end of the year came way too fast. Im here at home while everyone else is stressing about finals and papers and packing to go home. Im really glad thats over with.. the past couple of weeks were so stressful. But I miss everyone already, and its been, what, 3 days? I guess its just that the people I met at school just became my family, cause we were all forced to take care of each other. Thats why I cant wait till our suite next year, its going to be amazing. Also, I cant wait to come up in May!! Thats going to be awesome.

I cant believe the year went so fast. So much happened this year that I cant even keep track of it. Sometimes someone will recall some strange moment or ill see a really old picture and just be like "oh yeah!!" -- its insane. But this was a really good year for me, I think... i really learned a lot. I felt like I knew who I was when I came to college and i knew what i wanted. But I dont think I did until the end of the 2nd semester... when i actually had it-- or was at least close to having it. I made the most incredible friends this year, so many more than I could ever have imagined. I found myself a second home... props to Webster and the Vasey residence. I can still picture me, meg, pat and tom driving aimlessly and blasting get low and just knowing that everything fit. I was ridiculously lucky to have such an awesome roommate-- even though shes a freak and im still not sure why geneseo thought we would be good together. But whatever, they were right :) I met my girlfriend and future wife, and a handful of amazing girls that I love to death. And some pretty cool boys too. I realized that I really do want to be a teacher someday, even though part of me thinks that the courses im taking are meant to scare you away, not enthrall you. I worked my ass off second semester, and even though not all my grades reflect it, im damn proud of myself. and so are my friends, which i really appreciate. And last but not least, I met this kid who i guess is pretty cool, who i never meant to fall in love with, but somehow that managed to happen, and hes been there for me since. And that is why my freshman year of college was amazing. So thanks guys. For real -- i love all of you.

And that is why im here, waiting for summer to really start, waiting for the sayville crew to return to me. Its so strange -- to leave one life that you finally adjust to only to return to the place that was once your comfort zone, which is now slightly unfamiliar. Sayville is such a different place, as if i ran off and got married in Rome, only to return to Long Island some years later with a baby in the backseat to say "this is where i grew up." Its so sappy and movieish, but thats honestly how i feel. Im hoping things will return to normalness in the next couple of weeks.

Life is so strange. Its fun though.

I miss my girls, and I miss my boys. Reunion party 2k4, May 22.

Happy Summer, everyone.

Tina
