(no subject)
once again, it's taken me a while to update this thing. At least ive been productively busy, tho. Me and John set up the online journal community with all of us, and I've been working on the web page that Brandon so awesomely set up for us. All it needs now is content, because it looks really cool. Not much has happened since I've gotten back. Goin to classes, chillin' with friends...the usual. I had a fun time watching Illinois completely destroy Wake Forest last night. That was a hell of a time. We were hootin' and hollerin' all over the place. And, with things winding down, I'm finding it hard to concentrate on school stuff. Kind of a bad time to get the lazy bug. Only one more week after this, then finals. I just have to keep up the work for one more week. The main issue on my mind at the moment is the amazian asian. I know you're gonna be reading this too :). Mainly, I don't know that much about the guy other than what I've heard from other people, and I'm hoping that'll change over break. As far as I can tell, however, he's been nothing but loving, helpful, and available to my friends back home, which says a lot to me. I'm happy he joined the group when he did, too, right when a lot of us were leaving. The thing that's been bugging me about the whole situation, however, is...remember, you've heard it here first...jealousy. Yes, jealousy. That should say something right there, because I don't get jealous over very many things, so you can take that as a pretty big compiment. I'm just having kind of a hard time, like what varga said, about not being there with my friends any more on a daily basis to watch them grow. It's hard giving them up to other people. It's simply a selfish feeling of replacement, even though I know that's a bogus thought to have. Not a replacement as a person, but a replacement as someone who'll be there to listen, talk, give advice, help though the little things, etc. And I know that I would rather them have someone than no one, and the talk amongst us indicates that Brandon is doing all that wonderfully. So, I guess my problem is really rooted in homesickness, and it'll pass...hopefully...and I'm thrilled that my friends back home have another person like that accessible to them. So, to the newest member of our little possee of awesomeness (which seems to be the word of the times), thanks for coming along when you did and being the person you are. And I hope that Christmas Break brings us all closer together, and we get to know each other more. That's it for me, catch y'all later.
