Will was here Saturday night. It seriously shocks me that I've actually gotten to a point where looking at him gives me nothing but a vague feeling of indifference.
It was good to see him, though. We played Scrabble with Rebecca and finished off Sarah's ice cream cake and joked around about people we used to know or be friends with. It was just very platonic. I'm especially glad he came because I could tell he just needed to talk to someone, someone who knows him really well and saw him through a lot of hard times in the past. Needless to say I fit that pretty well.
And I feel like a bitch saying it, but either he's immatured a lot or I've matured a ton because there were times when I felt like I was talking to a twelve-year-old.
I finally got to register for Spring Term today, and I thinkkk I'm happy with everything I'm taking.. it'll definitely be really different than these last two terms though, that's for sure. I'm taking two political science classes (Modern World Governments and Problems in US Politics- Erin should be so proud), a Geography of Europe class aaand German Fairy Tales. Oh, and the ASUO Internship thing. Overall, it'll be 18 credits- a heavier load than the last two terms, in which I took 12 and then 16- but I'm up for the challenge.
My WR122 teacher emailed me this past weekend and asked me if she could use my essay in her future composition classes as an example of "a strong personal essay." I was really surprised, and proud- and when I forwarded it to my dad, I could tell how happy he was, too. It just feels really good to see proof like that of how well I'm doing in college. Also, I love it when people acknowledge my writing. Mainly people whose opinions I care about when it comes to writing- people who are strong writers themselves, like my dad. I've been thinking lately about whether it's something I'd be interested in pursuing a career in, but I don't know.. I tend to be soo self-critical that I worry I would bog myself down too much to be either happy or successful.
We'll see! I still have time. Thaaaaank god :-)
Arielle and I were talking on the phone last night about her AJ issues, and it just made me so happy that I'm single and casually dating and enjoying myself without needing something serious right now. I'm at such a good place with that, and I feel like it's been.. forever..? since I've been old enough to feel like this, and be able to actually feel it. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I love that I can say, "I'm soo happy being single," and ACTUALLY mean it.
Tonight is the season premiere of the Bachelor (which I don't really care about anymore because Jason made the worst decision of his life by getting rid of Jillian), aaand we're going to have a pajama party and make breakfast for dinner for the event. I'm not really sure why, it was Rebecca's idea, but it'll be fun hahaha. Although they have onesies, and all I have are my stupid basketball pants (I take that back, they're not stupid. I LOVE those pants) that Adam gave me, so THAT'S a definite bummer.
Girl's night this weekend! yay.
Lunchtime? Yes. And then Alias. And then maybeeee some homework, if it's lucky.
