So my lack of updating has gotten bad enough that even Tanner's reminding me of it, soo...
I'm sitting on the couch downloading episodes of How I Met Your Mother and eating garlic bread. My final semester as an undergrad is drawing to a close. The friday before spring break I found out that I got into Mizzou vet school, a prospect which is both a colossal relief, exciting, and somewhat terrifying all at the same time.
In the last few months I've lost my job and attempted to lose a roommate (we kicked him out but he's decided he's going to hang on til the lease goes up in July. I wish he'd put his dishes back in the kitchen if he's not leaving for a while, I miss having a frying pan). I'm looking for a summer internship but I'm really bad about getting motivated to fill out applications even though I'm kind of just barely treading water moneywise... this bothers me.
My classes are starting to meld together, all except for creative writing, which I adore, and english 1000, which I detest.
Today in Dairy Foods lab we made cheese, which was kind of cool.
I've found a new group of people to game with and started playing DG with them but they coopted the group when I got sick and we've been playing Shadowrun ever since. I'm probably more ok with this than I should be but I kind of miss running DG. I get the feeling that they're not very nice people, but it's nice to have new friends in addition to the old set and they're definitely more inclusive as a group than my current one. There's one guy I've been hanging out with probably more than I should. His name's Justin, and he reminds me a bit of Tanner though more superficially than anything else. He's fanatically religious but pretty intelligent in most other regards. For some reason I can hang out with him just talking for hours and I think I've been missing having someone I can do that with. I tried to introduce him to my regular group of friends and they don't seem to like him much, I think it's their usual xenophobia but it's a bit annoying. Friend drama makes me more tired than it used to.
Well this wandered into less happy territory so I'll bring it around. Tanner's coming to visit me this weekend ^_^ I'm very much looking forward to it. He got two days off from work so he gets to spend more time than usual even. I need to plan out things for us to do, since we can't just spend the whole weekend in my room. Did I mention I'm looking forward to seeing him? I still have his birthday present to give him...
And I'll wrap this up and try to post more, maybe somewhat more than once every four or five months perhaps. That way I don't have to make monster posts.
