End of the year recap
So I'm bored and think it's time for a wrap-up of this school year and a post to start Summer. I'm finished at Juniata this coming Tuesday. I already turned in my final paper/project for Latin American Society and Culture. I had my math final, and I have a speech on Tuesday afternoon at 1 for Spanish Lit. It's an entire presentation in Spanish about a poem I had to analyze. It's clearly gonna suck balls. In my other Spanish class and my Education class, I just didn't have a final, which I didn't mind. Both classes ended with a regular chapter test, nothing big at all. I'm sorta sad to leave some of my friends at Juniata for Summer, but not really. Next year should be pretty sweet, because the dorm I'm living in is so much better than the one I have now. My year should be a lot tougher, since I've gone back into Biology and am going on the PreMed track...
This Summer in Hollidaysburg should be pretty busy. As most of you know, I'll be working at Meadows for one final Summer, but only a few nights a week. It's just getting old to work there and Jon and I have both decided to call it a career after this summer. The reason I'm only working a few nights a week is that I have a new job. I got a job at Appleton Papers as a summer intern in the Machine Room. Basically all I do is work with another kid on various projects, all geared at cutting costs and improving safety. It's a vast change from Meadows, but I make $11 an hour, so I'm not too upset about it. I'm also just excited to be home for Summer and get to hang out in my favorite town. This leads me to my last topic...
I feel like I don't even know anyone who I used to be friends with. I don't know how this Summer is gonna be, because I don't think anyone is gonna want to hang out with me. I feel like everyone has just drifted apart during school and things just won't ever be the same. I dunno, it was just weird and it really hit me tonight. I saw Chris Ford, Lapenna, and Dean at Martin's. I talked to Ford a little bit about school and realized how much he has changed, and how I haven't talked to him in forever. I usually see Lapenna at Martin's, so it was good to see him again. I saw Dean for the first time since Christmas break. I said to him that I thought he had died and he said the same for me. It was crazy seeing him again, and it just made me realize how long it's been since I've seen everyone. We used to be tight and talk every day, but now I feel like I don't even know my own friends anymore. College life is cool, but it makes the life back home weird. I dunno if anyone else feels like this, but it's just a concern I thought I would address.
Well, I'm off to bed, work at Meadows 8-4. Later days.
