Random thoughts
I saw Slumdog Millionaire today. Amaaaazing movie. It was sort of an emotional rollercoaster centered around life in an Indian slum, and the Indian version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire", and loveeeeee :] And a bit of a Bollywood ending, haha. I would recommend this movie to everyone!
And I've come to the conclusion this past week that I am the person that people come to when they need someone. I'm very good at understanding people. I don't just feel for them, I feel what they feel. I'm pretty in sync with my emotions. I think it's also that I'm more comfortable with my friends. Yes, I lived with them last year, and yes, we're all best friends, but for some reason there was always something that prevented me from getting too close, as if I was afraid of getting hurt or left behind. But I think I've become very stable in my personality, my self, in the past year that it is much easier for me now to not just help people but allow myself to get closer, to let people in more. I feel that few people knew much about me before, and now my closest friends in SD are getting to see that side of me. I'm pretty glad that I am where I am now, emotionally, physically, etc. I feel very stable in my identity.
Also, there is almost never drama in my life. There is always drama in my friends' lives, so I'm sorta involved but not really. I'm glad that my life doesn't have drama. It just makes things that much more complicated.
School seems a little overwhelming. Mainly because of Spanish. I'm used to huge science lectures where grades are determined by midterm(s) and a final. But now, my Spanish class is really small, and we have oral presentations, and essays, and quizzes, and a midterm, and a final. It's not what I've gotten used to, but I feel like I have to deal with it since I'm in so far already.
I've been talking to one of my friends about her relationship with her boyfriend. It's been a subject of debate for a while now. She's finally realized they're in different places, but isn't sure if she can deal with a breakup. I hope that she does the right thing.
Eric's going to Japan for a year starting in July. I'm going to miss him so much.
