You know you need to come home...

when sappy shit like this *almost* makes you tear up:

Here is the deepest secret nobody knows,
Here is the root of the root, and the bud of the bud,
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life,which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide,
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart:

I carry your heart.
I carry it in my heart.

I pretty much knew summer was officially here, when I called Catherine and Lauren after my econ exam, and we had the following conversation (verbatim):

Me: Yeah, so I just really bombed that test.
Catherine: I need to go shopping for a new bathing suit!

and you pretty much can't argue with that. I am no longer a college freshman. And it's werid. Does this make me grown up? I don't feel very grown up. I don't look or act very grown up. Most of the time. It's just so weird, because nothing is certain anymore. Next year I will live in a completely different place, possibly as an RA, or with a completely different person. I will be taking different classes, hanging out with different people, and possibly never seeing some of the people I see every day ever again. It's not like high school, where everyone eventually has to come back together. People can just leave here, and no one knows what happens to them. Damn it, I need to stop with the mushy quote thing...I really am a weepy girl.
