I'm a slacker.
Basically that sums it all up. I looked back at my entries and the last time I wrote was before Thanksgiving. My excuse is that so much happened at once, and I didn't feel secure writing it all out. Suffice it to say that once again my heart has been broken and I lost a good friend. Someone I thought I could trust and who proved that promise to be false. But the silver lining is that through it all I've made an incredibly strong new friend and hope to hold on to her for a lifetime. Well enough of the maudlin routine, let's get down to the juicy stuff. After a pretty good Christmas, I came back to a much more comfortable apartment and a "final" semester at Witt. I'm starting to get all nostalgic about the whole thing and at the same time digging my heels in the ground in my state of denial.
My girls are finally back from Japan!! And although I'm horribly jealous, they've set up camp in their own apartment only about 1.5 minutes from my own. 45 seconds if I'm running. I'm glad that they're back and I plan on using the next few months to re-introduce them to campus. I'll have help of course...with Morris, Melissa, the boys, and the grandkids...
Other than that, I'm trying to keep on top of a very bust schedule that has me going from 9 to 5 every weekday. Like the song and movie, one might say. I'm noticing a certain fondness that my German professors have for my last name that comes mostly in the form of nicknames like "Finklein" and "Distelfink". And of course, "Aufkleber Fee"!!
On a side note, I think that in the past year I've become a more socialable and outgoing person and I think I like the change. I'm not sure if it was the apartment tension or the mix of alcohol and partial nudity but I find myself out playing more on the weekends. Hooray for playtime!!
Other than that, I'm sure there are details I've left out. We can catch up on all that later.
Until then.
