poor livejournal...
no one looks at livejournal anymore. it's so sad.
anyway, i think i'm going to start keeping a journal of college because it's probably one of the most interesting experiences of my life, and i'd like to remember it in 20 years.
speaking of college, it's so very different from high school. i mean, if i want to go to walmart at midnight on a wednesday, then drive to opelika, i can do it. sure, i might get raped if i stop anywhere in opelika at 1 in the morning, but whatever. and honestly my favorite thing about college (and i'm not even kidding) is being able to buy random things at the grocery store. if i want to try some weird snack or cereal or facewash or something, i can do it--and no one will eat my snack before i do! except maybe my creepy suitemate, but that's a whole different story. another weird thing about being at school is that when you come home, you actually start to miss people at school, so no matter where you are, you miss someone. maybe that's what happens when you grow up. and growing up sucks. and it's so strange that only 3 months ago, i didn't know any of my friends, but now it's hard to go a week without them. those are my favorite observations about college so far. and the time FLIES by, you would be so surprised. i've been there 3 months and it's almost christmas.
well, i didn't even mean to post on college at all. i was just going to observe that this time last year was one of my favorite times in my life. it just seemed like everything was going right. it's like during your life, you have these brief moments of perfect. although, everything doesn't seem perfect at the time. you look back and realize that everything was, in fact, pretty good. but it's so strange thinking about that time and knowing that it was a whole year ago. everything seems like yesterday and then you realize that time has gone faster than you wish that it had. i'm looking forward to everything to come, except being an adult. the only thing about being an adult that seems appealing is having a little bit more money...but then you have all of that responsibility too. i have resolved to NOT be a jaded, boring adult who doesn't understand kids. except i will have coffee table books, but only really awesome ones.
that's all for now...i'll probably be back in like 3 more months, ha.
