Larry the Cucumber
Well, I've taken three exams this week. Only one left (and finishing a demographics analysis) and I'm done for the semester. This semester has gone pretty quickly. I've had some pretty fun times, as well as some fairly stressful times, but that's life right?
I'm another year older, with that comes a feeling of where have I come since last year?
In response, I'm thinking about grad school. I would have never have thought such things from myself. I think I've gained a little more knowledge, at least as far as classes are concerned. I'm still fairly clueless at interactions with those of the opposite sex. I have a godson, which means I've been thinking about being a good role model more and more. This is a little scary. Thinking about someone looking up to you. I mean we are all just humans. I'm just human, who would want to look up to me, I've never pictured myself as much of a role model, but clearly my cousin Sue thinks that I am, and wants me to be one for her son. I shall try. Family is important. I guess that's really not a learned thing, I knew that already. But, with my grandpa dying and me being in Grand Rapids (not that far away) I still felt myself wishing I was there with everyone during their mourning, and my mourning process. Life is something to love and cherish, no matter how bad things get someone loves you. I wish everyone knew that. Sometimes people get second chances to figure that out and they are lucky to have that.
Somethings haven't changed that much this year. I still love the winter...and fall...and spring...and summer. My friends are still amazing. I still don't enjoy working at Dart, but I like having the money. Christmas lights still look fun when you aren't wearing glasses. And freshly brushed teeth are still amazing when you walk outside in very cold temperatures...I guess that means I'm still strange.
