long and unimportant.
summer has been sweet. working every day from 530-2 is kind of lame,
but it allows for serious beaching. which has been phenomenal.
sad i didnt get to go the fredericksburg the other weekend, but i sort of got over it.
my car's transmission died, so im not sure what im doing right now.
katelyn and annie are amazing for driving me to work. <3.
i'm not making as much money as i'd like because we're really short on people
and i don't get to carhop very much.
as for the rest of the summer,
i cannot wait to see kelly clarkson. i know. im lame. and proud of it.
i was really hoping this summer would give me a chance to catch up on old friendships
but my 8pm bedtime really cuts into that. i need to start napping in the afternoon
and going out at night. i've hung out with some people i never thought i'd talk to again.
which is sweet. i hope my whole life goes like that. the lines that connect us all constantly
twisting, intertwining, and doubling back. having people that know you/how you were is important, i think.
i 'm excited about my living situation next semester (duh), but
i'm glad i've gotten over the part of the summer where all i wanted to do
was go back to school. its sad that this is really my last summer vacation.
the "real world" should have summer vacation. i wish american culture was different.
i feel like i have no culture at all. which is sort of true. i saw a woman walking around
the other day with a t-shirt that said "I LOVE AMERICA". it upset me. no good reason. just did.
it made me think of that day last summer when that man was kind enough to inform me
that "this is america, we speak english here" and to turn off the spanish music.
i think i've lost touch with a lot of things i love to do because i don't make time for them.
this summer i have a lot of goals. just like i did last summer. i'm doing well with most of them.
kerrianne, caroline, and annie make me want to go to/be in europe really badly.
and it is a taste of how much i'm going to miss my gemi next semester.
it's weird how in college relationships grow at an accelerated rate.
it upset me in a strange way when andy said "everyone no longer exists"
i think we've all made new friends and expanded upon the original crowd,
but it's been an improvement. and while we never see each other, it's still
an important group of people to me. but at the same time, i know what he meant.
i cannot believe that half of my college career is over. it is disconcerting in a surreal sort of way.
speaking of surreal, the sky tonight at twilight was unbelievably surreal.
stepping out of the garage into the eerily orange and palpable air felt like stepping into a dream.
i cut my foot on a shell on thursday. i enjoy little pains like that. it reminds you
that you're alive and happy. and that you cut your foot at the beach.
so unlike all my sonic wounds that are reminiscent of irritation and unpleasant sensations.
saying goodbye to caroline was really hard. i never see her, so i didnt expect it to be.
i'm used to not having her around and having a predominantly computer relationship
(i was going to say cyber but it sounded so...bad)
but seeing her off to europe was really hard. then the next day said goodbye to a family member.
i'm heart broken over a lot of other people's pain. it's weird.
it comes to mind a lot. but reminds me how lucky i am. i'm obnoxious.
i have more to say, but i'll save it for another post.
this one is already long enough. i don't feel like rereading it for continuity/errors/ wording etc.
i am a failure as an english major.
and/or im exhausted because its 1.30 and i'm on an 8pm bedtime schedule.
but it allows for serious beaching. which has been phenomenal.
