ok, so i finished my first full quarter of college, and my my my what a whirlwind of crap that was. some classes i liked lots, one i hated more than anything. and of course, i didn't pass it, which makes me feel horrible cause i dissapointed myself, my parents, and everyone else. i feel so low right now, for more reasons than just one. so i'm glad that this quarter is completely different. all art classes, so i'm looking forward to all of them!
this winter break was just absolutly wonderful! i got to see so many people that i missed so dearly! like carly and stephanie and amber and brooke and kim and sarah! all of my old friends from jonesboro. and i realized that i still talk to more people from jonesboro than i do from union grove. i also got to see my dear friend beckaaay, and kyle skinner, and renee. and i also got to have a lovely day in little 5 with one of my bestest friends steve McCullough! and i also got a wonderful record by the fantastic pink floyd! oh oh! annnnd i went to my first hockey game with trey and zach, and i think it's my new favorite sp[ort. the thrashers won so we celebrated appropriately![haha] so now me and katie HAVE to go to a thrashers game! i got to see lots of people i like, and i also got to see my wonderful friend ben uphouse yesterday! and i had a wonderful time catching up with him.
and i met a wonderful new person that has become a very good friend, so that is very exciting, i love meeting new people, it's just utterly fantastic! and change, change can be good. i've learned that lesson now. i used to be so reluctant to anything that involved it, but now, i'm a lot better at adapting, and i'm proud of myself for that.
recently i've been feeling kind of down, but i'm still kinda opitmistic at the same time, it's odd, i can't really explain it. i'm going to miss someone very much, but i had to do it. change has become something that is now necessary in my life, and i need it now more often. but i need to look forward and do what's best for me and for the people around me, even if it hurts at first.
i've also been finding myself becoming a lot more nice-er [ i know that's wrong, ehh] i say random little prayers for people i don't know, and for ones i do. and just all around better at talking with people, i think it's becasue i'm a lot better of a listener. i've gotten really good atjust being open and there for people when they need someone. i'm trying to become more optimistic about life now, it's hard but i'm trying. i've always been so pessimistic, so i'm trying to make changes for the better in my life. and now i'm wondering how many people will actually read this, and if it was even worth it. but it was, cause it was nice to be able to write all of this down and get it out of my system. ok, i guess tha'ts all i got for now. back to homework!
