hey, kids!! something really great happened today! such relief.
anyway, i had my big chem test on wednesday and it went...okay. i mean, whatever i'm just glad it's over! i'm on break motha fuckas!!
yale is so great right now. i had a hard time last weekend because i was so stressed about chem, but now things are good. social things recently have been kind of off too; i just started realizing that i have very few good friends in JE and, like, these are the people i'm going to live with for the next four years of my life. but now i think i'm really close with yayone and a friendship with norah and felicia is totally blooming. and i feel absolutely comfortable and honest with most of my suitemates. fucking elina. well, whatever i just ignore her.
classes are hard!! don't let anyone lie to you. i mean you can choose not to work hard, but if you really want to do well it takes TIME. which is precisely what i haven't been giving most of my classes.
over thanksgiving i ultimately have a research paper to write/do the research for. i hope i can actually do it!! i hate environmental studies right now, hahah who was i kidding. i dont' know, sometimes i think i let my fear of trying something new get in the way of my life. for example, i'm not going to do environmental studies because it's not "me" but then again what i do i know about myself? yeah, i hate science but like doees that mean i can't be an environmentalist? i don't know...i just feel like i'm settling for something that's a lot more comfortable and that scares me that i'll actually just end up a stay-at-home mom because that's "comfortable." i say i want to go to other countries and help people but i'll probably end up doing something jewish in a suburban community. so now is this me being pessimistic or realistic? why are those two things so synonymous in our society? haha sh'eilah tovah, mimi.
GOAL: to be fluent in hebrew and comfortable having a conversation by....junior year. think i can do it? i will.
anyway, alcohol run in a few. gotta go to the ATM. wooohooooooo THE GAME this weekend!!! go bulldogs! can't wait
leave me some love
