(no subject)
So. Norman. What a freaking whirlwind. My body hates me and all my muscles ache. We drove from 3 pm to 1 am. Why? A detour in dallas that took us 3 hours off our track. Needless to say i bitched about it the whol eway back.
Mostly really nice trip :) Besides feeling sick Thursday night I did most of what I wanted to do. Except for Anne, some PSP older brothers and a few other people, I at least briefly saw everyone I wanted to see. Who am I kidding I saw just about everyone briefly. And it was interesting to see with who relationships just picked up where they left off ( most) and with who there was this big open space between who we were and who we ar enow.
Like I said Friday night, we are always changing.
I met some new people, got closer to others. Ignored the advances of a drunk man named nate. Didnt drink much at all but was OK with that.
Because of my 1:30 am arrival I missed seeing Joy. Joy, I heart you and Im sorry :( But I know youll be back here again sometime soon. I did run into simon while at ihop at 5 am..... totally random.
So basically: to summerize.
Im a graduate! Yeehaw. I hate the part in road trips where your lost. Im so glad I went back to graduate so I could hang out and walk with illana and crew rather then my own class...where any freshman year closeness ( except for one or two people) had faded. Illana is off to parts far far away and Ill miss her. Saw some orasi folks, and PSP folks, and AGD folks.
Im happy with the trip...but im left wishing for more time. To explore friendships and relationships that could have grown stronger if I was still there.And do all the little things in norman for an hour instead of a minute. And actually sit down with each friend and talk, instead of a five minute chat at a party that usually doesnt help validate 3 or 4 years of friendship. And teachers...some who didnt even realize I wasnt in the state..those are always some awkward convos.
And then im back here where things are different. There is the play to work on, mini disasters quickly being averted and things to fill my mind with: stat. And meetings. New friends, different from the old in many ways. I miss having guy frends around me. Alot. And dance classes to attend.
Things are always changing...but Im glad I can look back on my time in norman with a mostly happy feeling. Somethings were stupid, some people were not meant to be in my life...but most of the memories ( and the people atatched to them) were wonderful.
Amen.
Now off to upload the pictures I took with the glam digital. They are pretty hot, I have to say.
