bittersweetness
I think the subject line sums up my whole semester. At the end of the summer I didn't want to go back to school and now I don't want to go home. I knew that would happen, of course. This whole semester has been really mentally difficult for me but I learned a lot. I know I can just take one day at a time and get through it. I know that I will survive the long hours in the library but that I will still at least survive if I don't put in the time... I've learned how to let go more... in more ways than one, but this needs refining in practice and in how I think about it (what does this mean? I really don't quite know...)
I'm going to go see the Holiday with Natalie at 3:50 in Fishkill. I really love Kate Winslet. She just got her 5th Golden Globe nomination and she like just turned 30. That's nuts. She will probably be nominated for another Oscar this year and probably won't win. That will make her one of the most nominated actresses, and must be the most nominated without winning. OK, but I really don't follow pop culture at all.
So anyway. Whitney's coming Monday, Kath is back in the US by now, I will be in NYC in less than a month (yikes).
For the next 6 months I will miss Vassar like crazy. I can feel the pit in my stomach already. I miss it already. I'm going to be in denial of it the entire time though; I can feel it. I want to have fun and meet people and do fun things and live in the City and learn a ton about urban education. I want to help people. I love being a Vassar student. Leaving is bittersweet.
