First week of school, eh?
My classes are going well. I order my books online, though, and it always makes me really anxious at the begining of every semester because we have assignments and I have no idea when those books are gonna come through. My folklore class sounds intereting but the teacher is so bland. Criminal Justice is going to be boring obviously and my teacher spent 20 years in the military...yeah. Philosophy I already love (though already don't understand) and my teacher is awesome. My favorite so far though is Interpersonal Behavior. Mainly because our class only lasts until March 4ish at which point we will be done for the semester. And the last thing we will be doing is spending a weekend together at Lake Laurel working on group dynamics and such and its going to be just like camp only a whole lot more fun because we're college students. I didn't even know that GCSU had a lodge on the lake that we could use. So though I don't like having to waste a weekend because of school, it should be interesting because its we will basically be doing skits and ice-breaker like activities. He put us into three groups of seven today based on a survey we did in the last class. I don't know how he decided on the mix based on our survey answers but it should be interesting. I already get along with my group really well and can tell we are going to get really close over the semester. We had to come up with group names today and ours is The Silver Monkeys (from Legends of the Hidden Temple).
All in all, the semester is going to be interesting.
Me and Meredith rode our to the Delaney's for a few hours last night and that was refreshing and mind clearing. They leave about 15 minutes outside of Milledgeville so it's always like a miny vacation. And they have a kickass foosball table.
AND...we didn't really know how to put this but just so our friends know me and Amanda sat down for a talk this afternoon. Everything was cleared up, talked about, and revealed. I couldn't have asked for a better conversation and I feel like this weight was lifted off my shoulders. So there is no more of this awkwardness of bitterness. We even cleared up a few things about our relationship that were unclear even before the situation happened so that felt good to learn things that she was always concerned about that I never knew. It was just awesome and I am still smiling about it and I am in a such better place now. We had no idea why certain things were bothering us the way they were and to learn why they were bothering us really put things into perspective. I know that some people have talks like that just to mend things in a fake and forced way so I hope she knows, though it's hard to believe, that I harbor no more resentment towards her on the situation and would love nothing more than to hang out with her and continue being friends.
And everyone can breath a sigh of relief because our know our friends felt just as awkward about everything.
It's going to be a good year indeed
