Whoah, formless void whaaa
Whee! At home for a day after bringing Ma and the first few boxes of the Not So Great Move back home. I'm still recovering from grad festivities, the enormity and energy of which have sort of managed to drain me. Either that or the three hours of driving, bleh. At this rate, I'll never handle the two day trip out to WI with any grace.
Speaking of which, the 'rents want me to take a train out. I always like trains, but I'm pushing back against this one so far since I want to use my car. I think driving would be better since I would a) get a rest in going out there by going to my stepsister's house b) I would be able to use my car in Madison, which is in the Midwest and therefore in my mind flat and wide and requires a car and c) waaaaaugh it's my carrrrrrrr and I want to use iiiittttt /whine/. But thankfully, the 'rents are not pushing it too hard (since I am now an Independent Adult Person Dude?), instead opting for the vaguely passive aggressive approach. I intend to counter by mollifying them with a promise of getting my car a trip check by a mechanic, which is not a bad idea anyways. Well, whatevs.
But anyways, until that shizzle all goes down, I have a free few weeks! Whee! I have no idea what to do with myself!
For one, I need to take the GREs, which means I can fool myself with the illusion of structure and hopefully sit down with my GRE prep book for a few hours every day/week to prepare. It would be pretty nice if I could do well... I don't know exactly what doing "well" would mean in this case, however, given that I have no idea where/when I want to apply to graduate schools. The more I think about it, the harder it all seems to be to plan.. Especially if I say, want to try and go back to Japan, which I keep talking about but not following through on.
Ah well, use the karmic principle, Brendan! It'll all work out pretty well in the end :D
In the meantime, I have to:
a) square up loans
b) square up bills
c) send off thank you notes
d) sent off postcards to foreign and domestic buddies
e) move out and negotiate with friends over furniture
f) hang out with said friends :D :D :D
Okay! I will talk to you all later. <3!
