So I'm kicking off 2007 by going to a funeral, woohoo! A relative on my mom's side of the family died last week. I don't think I ever even met him. Somehow people in our family always seem to die around Christmas, which sucks. But I've never been to a funeral before, so I figure I should go, plus I can meet all these relatives that I always hear about. There's a woman, a cousin of my mom's I think, who's *gasp* a lesbian. But of course no one in the family talks about it. It was actually her dad that died. So it'll be interesting to meet her.
In other news, I'm looking into yet another option for summer, which is living in NYC and getting an internship. NYU has summer sessions and they'll provide dorm housing for you. Evan's going to be doing the same thing, except he'll be coordinating his internship through IC. I'd like to take a class and hopefully do my internship thru NYU. Astonishingly enough, both my parents went for the idea. It's a six week session, which would still give me time to go home and have my wisdom teeth pulled (I really know how to have fun, don't I?) before I head to LA. I'm really excited, and I hope it works out. AND if I'm still dating a certain someone then, she won't be far away from the city. :)
I don't want to spend three more weeks at home. One, maybe. I miss my girls, I miss Ithaca, and I miss Melissa. I wish Alexander was here. I talked to him yesterday, and he's coming home from Chile just a few days after I leave. *sigh* That means I probably won't see him till summer, at the soonest.
But right now I'm feeling pretty optimistic about everything. Now I just need to know my grades from last semester and I'll be all set.
