And if you give a damn...

My world is going a little bit crazy.

Halloween weekend was fun and much-needed. Thursday feasted at Olive Garden, then watched Hocus Pocus. Friday night was probably the most fun I have had in a long time. Brittany came from State, and my fellow UM'ers Kristin and Jackie and I went to a Halloween party at the Putnam/whybrew/stringer house... like half of our graduating class was there, we ended up drunkenly dancing about the basement with the likes of andrew tisdale, miraj (?!) tony brown, and stringer the penguin. It was so low pressure, no need to impress the people you've known since you were 11, just fun. Which is what I needed.

Saturday went out to a few parties with the walnut kids and kristin. Interesting night. I rocked the goddess costume hardcore, that's all I have to say.

Sunday afternoon was low key, relaxing. fabulous. Sunday night was homework time with my favorite study buddy.

Tuesday my mom decided she wanted to go to Detroit to see Rosa Parks at the Wright museum. I rounded up Deborah and John, and my family and I stood in line for 4 1/2 hours to see her. It was definitely worth it... this person who catalyzed an entire movement, this strong woman who changed history... amazing. Rest in peace, Rosa.

Thursday my brother came with me to class! It was fun... I love my brother... we went to lunch and then shopping afterward.

Yesterday our first SHOCK performance went well, which made me happy. It makes me laugh how much I am in Couzens, I feel like I still live there. Then Katie and I hung out at the boys' apartment, where I pretty much died in life.

Life... is weird. Part of the odd state of my world right now can be attributed to growing up, perhaps it's the personal evolution that comes over time, but I've just found myself caught up in this whirlwind of surprise and/or disbelieving knowledge... It also makes me laugh when I'm explaining things to other people because really, very little is concrete in my head and any information I pass onto others may not be true days or even hours later.

Let me just make it through this semester. How do i have ANOTHER econ midterm coming up? Why did I mix up my research meeting times? I don't even want to think about proposing my honors thesis or picking classes for next semester.

It's time to trust my instinct, close my eyes, and leap...
