Lasts all afternoon

Apr 14, 2004 15:43

Well here I am on, according to John Mayer, "the kind of morning that lasts all afternoon". Its gray, its rainy, it feels like pre-dawn, but I dont mind. The rain isnt getting to me. I almost wanted to stand in it and just get soaked last night. Im coming clean.

So much going on in the past few days. Finals are coming up, fast. My first one, Chem, is this Friday. Im really not worrying much about it. I keep meaning to ask Andrew if he has Gilberts midterms to study from, but keep forgetting. I saw him last night too. Yesterday I had my first Infocommons experience. I was there for quiet awhile. It went really well. It was mobbed, but I put in my head phones, the computer didnt give me shit, and everyone left me alone. No distractions, nothing.

Well, almost nothing, except for when Gateway called me. Oh my I almost went postal on them. Apparently they put the wrong order number or something on my computer parts so, they said, it was gonna be another 5 days. Unacceptable. I told the guy it wasnt okay, and got him to overnight it on UPS. Well, its not here yet but it better show up soon or Im going to fly to South Dakota and strangle Mark myself. Alli has been amazing. She downloaded AIM+ so I can chat, and shes letting me use her computer now. I love her, shes the greatest. Lauren as well. Theyve both been really great about allowing me computer access as needed.

After that final mandatory floor meeting w Tanya, then Alli and i hit the gym hard and fast for a full 15 mins before it became a "person free zone". We got soaked on the way home, shower, then hang around and be giddy till "I cant believe its 12:33!!!". Watched James stick and unstick things to the celing. Went to visit upstairs Mike. He has 15 stitches in his face, the pavement by the handicapped ramp kicked his ass. "Does your face hurt? Cause its killin us!" haha Lizzie!

Finally to bed. LAST DAY OF CLASSES today. Was great. Last Calc, Last Religion, Last Bio and upcoming Last Chem Recitation. Stopped to see Susie at Chem Central for some help. Place was packed. Now im here, in Allis room. Apparently Im helping Mark study for psych later, eating dinner with Gordon, and studying for Chem.

Talked to Jeff Lobo last night for the first time in a long time. He went to college somewhere in NJ. Appparently hes transferring to go play Hockey at the University of Kentucky. Thats awesome. We were talking about how much we miss the senior year crew. Paul, Vin, Erin, Eric, Dave, Rod, Mike, Rayzer, Asia and all them. We feel kind of left out now. Jess, Dave and I are the only ones not at UConn. Theyre all together all the time. I feel like im not a big part of their lives anymore which kind of sucks. Lobo pointed out that weve seen so many new places and met so many new people. But still, its kinda rough sometimes. At times I just want to be back at SHS chillin at Pauls on a Fri night. It was so comfortable.

Lizzies showing me pics, and i gotta get out of here. Stay dry!

*I am driving 85 on the kind of morning that lasts all afternoon, just stuck inside the gloom. Four more exits to my apartment but I am tempted to keep my car in drive and leave it all behind. Cause i wonder sometimes about the outcome of a still verdictless life. Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why Georgia why? I rent a room and i fill the spaces with wood in places to make it feel like home, but all I feels alone. It might be a quarter life crisis just stirring in my soul. So what so Ive got a smile on. But its hiding the quiet superstitions in my head. Dont believe me, dont believe me when i say Ive got it down. Everybody is just a stranger but thats the danger in going my own way. i guess its the price I have to pay. Still everything happens for a reason is no reason not to ask myself if I am living it right.*

Lesson(s) of the Day:
-You can never tell how deep the puddles are on Huntington Ave.
-Finals are almost here!
-I cant wait to go home, but Im going to miss everyone here immensly.
-Lizzie loves Oprah.
-Stuff sticks to the ceiling here far too well.
-Sleeping on a top bunk is a bad idea for me.
