Ahh, procrastination. How I do love thee. Well, today I at least have a plan. Go do Greek homework at IES, come back and procrastinate, and then write 600 more words of my paper, and then procrastinate some more. It should be a good time. At least I feel better cos I am making some headway on this religion paper and I have been doing Greek every day (I AM RECOGNIZING WORDS NOW YIPEE!!!!!).
But the sooner I get all my stuff done, the sooner I go home. To LA. I'm looking forward to my New York City interlude. A lot. It's going to be relatively cheap(er?) than what I thought I would spend and I get to see some family (again) and Nate (hooray) but then I get to go home. "Get to", as if it's some sort of magical privilage.
See, I'm sorta not really looking forward to it.
It's funny because I think that when I went away to college, I lost touch with a lot of people I was close with...for whatever reason. And it seems the friendships I have made in the interim haven't really lasted as much. The people I want to see this summer are people from high school. People from Monarch. People from Ultrazone, but UZ back in the day, when I was the youngest employee. And that makes me happy and excited, happy and excited because people actually want to see me. That's big for me. I dunno why, it just is.
There's one relationship that is over for sure, and one that is, sadly, seemingly on its way out. But that's okay. If I've learned anything from my life and my studies, it's that nothing lasts forever. So maybe this, too, will just be a phase. But who knows. And at this point, though I am still vaguely annoyed, I guess I just don't care anymore or believe in it, at all. If I did, maybe I would have stronger faith in it.
I'll give you an example.
During the school year, a bunch of us are scattered around the country. And I suck (and HATE) the phone, so I rely on AIM/facebook a lot more than I probably should. As a result, I rarely talk to Kaitlyn, as she's busy. I rarely talk to Anna because she's never on AIM. And though Nick is on a fair amount, we never really have anything to talk about. But somehow, when I get home, it doesn't matter because we're still great friends and we have that security, that trust with each other.
But I guess if I don't HAVE that with someone, it just fizzes out. Fizzzzzzzz.
Oh well. C'est la vie, right?
Since I'm gonna be back in a short time, I want to visit NH. Just because I do that sort of thing. If anyone wants to come with me and disrupt Toy's class, let me know.
