In which the author falsely posts for the chance to daydream.
I am very cautiously putting my life back together again after the immense catastrophe that was Last Semester, the Months of Suicidal Agony (TM). Slowly rebuilding all the bridges I burnt in my collapse... They are weaker now because of this and so I must tread this semester carefully, mindfully, or else fall for good. I NEED to do well this semester, or that's that.
That being said, I feel (again, cautiously) optimistic that these courses will work out for me. Two English ones - American Lit, Gateway Seminar - and two History ones - Russian Revolution, Art in India - feel to be much more up my alley than the previous ones I tried to endure. I am doing good so far. Yes, it's only a week and a half into the semester, but I need the pat on the back, goddamnit. I also am eating better, washing better, and sleeping better.
I can actually say that I enjoy all my courses and am looking quite forward to the ideas I will be pursuing in them. I'm also back in my work-study position without (much) being said to me as to my sudden disappearance last semester. No matter how greasy my co-workers are or how much I have to listen to my office mate's repressed homicidal desires, work has that little redeeming factor of making me money, meaning I'll have that much more means for the move to Canada or wherever Cole ends up once I graduate.
Speaking of Cole, we had a pretty cruel argument last night and didn't talk for two days. Or I guess if you count the hours, one day... Okay, a little less than 24 hours. But it FELT like two days. Felt absolutely miserable. We did just make up, though. It took us about 3 hours to reconcile, but everything is just peachy once more, I am happy to report. And I took a picture of my tiny ponytail and it made him happy. :)
YES, my hair is -just- long enough that I can ponytail it. Like, just the tiniest bit. xD Looks very impish. Not really sure what I want to do with my hair. Suggestions?
