Incredible V-Day
I just mailed in my last grad school application, Valentine's day was great, I have money for once, and I have wind burn. Except for the last part, life is great.
Yesterday was incredible. My mom sent me a giant box full of gifts and food and money. Surprisingly my dad sent me a box also with candy and money. Suddenly I go from broke to having some cash. I also got a card and note from both telling me they are proud of me. I've always known mom was proud of me but hearing that from my dad is a recent development. I still don't know how to react to it. Also part of the excellent day was that I finished my Dartmouth application. I am done now with all of my applications.
Last night I was surprised. I'm not used to having a guy pull through for me, especially when it comes to planning anything. So to my surprise Ian actually showed up and took me out to dinner. The last time I went on a dinner date it was years ago and ended with so much awkwardness that I still can't believe how bad it went. After dinner we came back and watched Clueless. I think he only picked it to amuse me but I think he liked it in the end. For the rest of the evening we went searching for people then watched Mystery Science Theater. It may not sound like a lot, but I ended the evening falling asleep in his arms, that's all that matters to me in the end. I'm still getting used to having someone around who wants to really be around me. Hell I'm getting used to having people call him my boyfriend and him referring to me as his girlfriend. While physically I'm virginal, in my mind I am so jaded it's sad, but the way he's been acting lately it's like he's on a one man mission to change that (the latter)
I have sent off my last application today. All I need to do now is send off a money order which I would have done except I found the one bank that closes at 3. I found this out at 4 after I walked in the FREEZING cold already after spending two hours returning film equipment and saving my sound from my film. I am very tired.
