Contrary to popular belief, I am alive, I promise :)
Classes are going pretty well, but I think it's going to be a rough semester academically. I'm still RA'ing, in swing, net nuts, and now Psi Chi and Global Partners have been added. I love my residents, they are a group of really amazing people, and I wouldn't have asked for anything different than what I have. I planned a semi-formal last semester, which though a lot of work, was so gratifying when everything came together, and I had so many people helping, it was amazing. It made me so happy. Winter Holiday was amazing, and really reconnecting with Peter, Kai and Sandra made it better than I ever could have imagined. I fell in love with Spain, and I really think that with a logical plan offered, I would move there without much hesitation. I'm not going to persue social psychology anymore- I'm going to do Industrial Organizational. I know to most of you that means nothing, but it's a big deal for me- I have to throw out everything I ever looked at for grad school programs, professors to study with, everything.
Generally, I'm very happy right now, and for the most part I love where I am in all respects. I don't love the 4ft snow drifts all around me, but I didn't mind snow days 2 days this week. Plus, it was absolutely beautiful when it had first fallen, and I hadn't seen snow like that in so long.
It's funny how people pop up out of the woodwork. I got a message on Myspace last week from no one other than Frank Barber- someone I hadn't seen since my freshman year in high school, 6 years ago. For me, it seems so odd that it was that long ago. Sometimes when I'm sitting in lecture, it still doesn't feel like I'm in college, despite the fact that I'm in my second year, almost halfway done with undergrad, making grad school plans, and living in the dorms still. It's so surreal that next month I'm turning 20, and that things in my life are actually starting to matter. I've changed a lot since I've come to college, and I still am changing. I am becoming a more strong and independent person. I've never been scared to stand up to certain people, but now I'm learning to stand up to the people I never could stand up to before, and it's liberating, but also seems so foreign.
So here's to a new year (a little late), a new chapter of life, and happiness. Here's to making what I want to of my life, and living my life to the fullest. Don't worry, I'm not going to go nuts. I still have the logical mind for the most part, and I intend to stay that way.
