I haven't updated in a long time. Three weeks. That saddens me.
Well, I'm in school now. I have some interesting classes, with interesting people. I've been busy, and it's only the first week.
Last week I went on vacation in North Carolina. It was nice... went to the beach a lot, dropped my phone into the ocean, ate my weight in food... a typical family outing.
I was glad to be going to school after it.
I can't say that my life has changed, but at the same time I have to acknowledge that I have been living differently in the past seven days. Doing things differently, writing more in notebooks and on pages in books. I haven't brushed my hair since Tuesday. The curls are rebellious.
I'm actually waiting for eleven so that I can eat breakfast and then walk to Shop Rite, where I hope to only buy twenty dollars worth of goodies. We'll see.
The other day I was walking around, and I went to this convenience store called, no shit, Convenient. I was hoping to find at least splenda, but sadness, nothing, so I instead buy apple cinnamon poptarts and scotch tape (where did I put that..) and walk over to the main quad in campus. Taking out my book (For Kings and Planets) and the last of my last pack of cigarettes (yes, definitely trying to quit this time. It's been four days), I sit in the grass, open up a poptart, and read until the sun fully set.
For a moment, it made me feel that I could live outside, sleep in the grass, and eat poptarts.
God, I miss writing in here. Maybe I'll do it again soon.
