Home at last. I've been here for a week and a day now and it feels like longer. I was slightly worried about getting back into a routine here and not feeling like things were normal again, but for the most part I feel...well.. right at home. I got a pretty nasty stomach virus last weekend and that laid me up until Wednesday of this week, but now I am on the mend and getting back to catching up on socializing and, most importantly, eating.
So far Ash and I have been on a date or two and last night Joe, Jim, Kelly, Lark, Kristie, Vinnie, Parker and I went to Friday's. I'm grateful that going away to school has somewhat put into perspective those who care about maintaining relationships. Tomorrow hopefully Ashley, Whitney and myself are having lunch and I'm really looking forward to it.
I was supposed to get my wisdom teeth pulled today but my virus forced me to miss my consultation and today was my consultation instead, and since everyone and their mom has decided they want to get their teeth pulled this break, I will now have to wait until Spring Break to get mine pulled. I can't say I'm disappointed.
Oh also, my most awesome early Christmas gift thus far came from Ashley who gave me a really cute calendar she got online that has personalized pictures and captions for every month. I wish I had known about this gift because it really is the perfect gift idea. It's thoughtful and you can use it and enjoy it all year round, or, as Ashley put it, "never miss my beautiful face again". Next year I'm going to get her one too so we can both look at each others beautiful faces all year. Yet again the USPS has fucked me over and Joe's final gift has still not arrived. I ordered it on the 12th with 7-9 day shipping, so if it doesn't come tomorrow I'm going to be pissed.
As far as grades go, I'm quite pleased. 4 As, and a B in Psychology (caused undoubtedly by my lack of attendance because it was at freaking 8AM). A 3.8 is more than admirable for the first semester, and next semester I don't see why I won't be able to wrangle a 4.0 with my 3 English classes and Pass/Fail Comp. Sci.
I also plan to spend more time from this point forward worrying less. About everything. I worry entirely too much and it's getting out of hand. I probably have an ulcer.
I suppose I'll update again sometimes after the holidays
