Update on life
I'm sorry its been awhile but I've been having an emotional time lately. I'm starting with the bad news because I always like to get it out of the way. It started off with Fordy leaving over a week ago. I have so much fun with him and he is someone I can always talk to. He knows when I'm sad and when I just need to unwind. He is the reason behind every great, and usually stupid or dangerous, story I have. But now he's gone and I miss him.
After a few hours of being depressed and crying about this, I got a call. My grandma had a severe stroke. I spent the rest of the night white as a ghost, praying, wanting to cry, nervous, weak, and scared. Since that Wednesday she has been up and down. As of now she is not doing so well to the point of mom calling me yesterday to see if there was anyway I can attend my graduate school (I'll get to that in a moment) in the winter instead of the fall. This is just in case grandma does die and we have to take care of everything involving her death. Now my mom is as optimistic as I am so when she talks like that, it's not good news.
I do have some good news. I am going to Dartmouth for grad school. While I'm on Columbia's wait list, Dartmouth wants me. I've decided to go there because 1) they actually want me 2) I want to continue my writing because a script can make or break a movie and also they have some filmmaking classes 3) I don't know, I think I need a change of scenery, I've been living here for four years- I get stir crazy after awhile. Don't worry I'll come and visit as soon as I figure out the train system.
This weekend I was invited to Clare's house for Easter but I declined because Ian (boyfriend Ian) wanted to take me in the city and also I've been slacking in my conference screenplay because of grandma (it's hard to be funny when you just want to run away from everything and not come back). While we didn't make it into the city because of the cold weather, I'm glad I stayed home because I got to be updated on how grandma is really doing and now I can start planning my life accordingly- again. Ian and I have rescheduled our city trip to this weekend but now I got AV work on Saturday at 7 so now I'm worried about the shuttle not getting back to campus by then. I am so sensitive and emotional from everything else that this little thing is really pissing me off. We'd go sunday but Ian has Vocal Minority at 7 (same problem). It just pisses me off because I need the money but at the same time I need the distraction and I need this. No guy has ever planned out any type of date for me. I've never had surprises, romance, nothing. I also need a distraction from grandma, school, everything. I'm at my wit ends with everything and I'm not even including my biggest worry.
I'm just going to focus on the fact I got into to Dartmouth, one of the hardest schools to get in.
