Snap and a half
All in all, this weekend was pretty decent... I went home and got to see my family and grandparents. It was nice to just get away from HC for a bit and relax. Sometimes it's hard to see when we are here, but in all honesty, Mt. St. James is a bit of a fantasy world. I must say, it's a very nice fantasy world, but it's illusion just the same. We live in our own little worlds here for 4 years, and often times it's hard to see the world for what it really is.
I know for me personally, I do lose a little touch of reality here. I see things through a different lense, which in many ways is a good thing, as it teaches us to view the world in a more positive light, but then again it masks those things which are blatantly obvious, standing boldly right in front of our very eyes. That's what parents are good for. They make you see those obvious things that either you can't see yourself or simply dont want to see. Although sometimes I get nervous talking to them or feel like they are bearing down on me, they're only doing it for my best interest.
Siblings are pretty awesome too. They're always there to give you grief. When you do deserve it, they slap you in the face, and they can get away with it a) because they are younger and have the right to hit you, or b) because you know you deserve it. Either way, they're pretty sweet. Hahaha. And then isn't it awesome when you're little brother has to get his 2 cents in? Too cute. Ahaha.
So maybe this whole thing doesn't make all that much sense... I didn't really expect it to, since my head is a little jumbled at this moment anyway. In short, it's good to get the old mind cranking in a way that looks beyond life on the hill here and in this moment, and instead look forward to the bigger picture not just here at HC but in life beyond the Cross as well. Yes folks. There is life beyond college, however sad it may be. So, I guess I'll just end by saying that I've got a lot to think about, considering who I am as a person, and how I am going to identify myself, and take a closer look at this world around me, the people around me, starting with life here at HC, and how I am going to mold it in such a way to make the most out of it.
'nough said.
I have 2 more things to say:
1) HCGTMBVB starts Tuesday... HOORAH!
