im waiting for my laundry to dry...
perfect public entry time!
I apologize to all who expect updates but just dont get them. I really need more times like this where i have nothing to do and no one to talk to and just feel pensive and like writing.
SO Alpha Chi. I love alpha chi, despite all of its drama. I nearly died on Thursday night and it was my roommates that bought me gatorade while i was sick, brought me to health services, waited around for hours and then returned at midnight when i awoke well enough to go home. I was extremely upset about life in general on Saturday afternoon and it was my roommates who cheered me up, took me to walmart and made me smile, and then it was Kate who took me to Orchard Hill to watch the game with some theta chi boys and i had probably the best sober weekend night in a long long long time. Last night, even though I wanted to sleep we stayed up til 2am talking about everything...
i love it here. i love my roommates, my other friends in the house and just being here in general. its really everything that i thought it would be.
Except the fact that sometimes i do feel that i have fewer and fewer friends outside the house, and fewer and fewer guyfriends becuase its hard to make them when they want your sisters and it gets awkward because men here dont seem to understand "platonic friendship." i dont know.
thats all i have to say about that.
School is hard...
i make most of my classes, and i had an exam today that i think i did well on. Things are good in general, i just feel that im working very hard, but then i look at what i've actually done and its not much, so it motivates me to work harder.
I ran with lauren today and im going to wake up at 7 tomorrow to go to the gym for two hours. ive gained seven pounds since i arrived on campus and i am determined to LOSE THEM in the coming weeks. to hell with communication class, i need to eat dinner work out, do homework, go to bed early and work out again!
I have no halloween costume. Lauren bought an adorable childrens fairy costume from CVS and shes adorable but looks like the tooth fairy but its cute. Maggie will be an angel. We were goign to go as hooters girls, then devils and angels, and now i think i am on my own. im not even sure if i want to dress up and go out, but i know i will. halloween will be fun.
Chris is going as the tinman:
SammyB 8403: why do i associate you with the tinman
cjhellm: no heart?
i miss home friends.
so this is how it is:
i KNOW ive said OVER AND OVER AND OVER that i am living in Amherst this winter break but god damn it i cannot leave the sleep job. i LOVE the sleep job i am GOOD AT the sleep job and my clothing is just TOO DAMN EXPENSIVE to recalculate GPAs all break for minimum wage. so im goign to live at home, make some money, buy me a new computer and probably (depending on the cost) keep my room at alpha chi so i can come back when i feel like it, and perhaps work at the visitors center for minimum wage when there are no hours at the hospital.
AND
set your calendars My 20th Birthday Party will be held on Friday November 25th, 2004. (Yes, actual birthday is following Thursday, but i'll be back in Amherst then. Parties for UMassers will be held then.) That is the friday AFTER Thanksgiving so keep the calendars open. It will probably be at my house, unless some loving soul would like to volunteer theirs for debauchary so that i can get shitfaced and not have to police the party. Or maybe i can get the sister to police whist i enjoy myself.
anyway this is all becuase isketch is happening.
i miss home sometimes.
