Okay, well. The semester's over. I passed all my classes, and fell deeply, madly in love with my history professor's intellect. One of these days, I'm going to type up the letter he wrote us at the beginning of the semester. The class was insanely difficult and at times stressful, but I don't regret it. I want my next history class to be with him as well.
I'm updating, and it's Kathleen's fault for reminding me that I have this thing, and that I used to pretend to be myself online before I got so good at pretending to be other people.
I've been living with my family again lately, and, I don't know. I don't know how I feel about it. Actually, I don't really know how I feel about anything right now. But. I'm okay. It's okay. I've been getting along with my brother like I haven't before in my whole life, all twelve years he's been alive. It's weird. I realized that I love him. I've always felt strange when people talk about how much they love their siblings, but I've realized it's because I was never really allowed to talk to him and every time he tried to spend time with me, Dad would start yelling.
But I've been going to sleep on the top bunk of his bed every night, I've been making him breakfast in the morning, I've been here to welcome him home from school. It's great. It's really, really great.
We watched Newsies together the other day, goofed around singing all the songs. We sound alarmingly alike when we sing--we learned this when we recorded ourselves. He's playing FFIX, and tomorrow we're going to LARP it in the snow like the losers we are. (Ice Cavern, anyone?)
Anyway, living with my family comes with its fair share troubles, but... I'm doing good.
I'm excited to see Emily this weekend, either tomorrow or the day after. EM, IF YOU'RE READING THIS, I AM SO GOING TO THE STORE FOR A GAME FOR US. ANY REQUESTS?
So, now that I've updated once, maybe I'll start doing it more often. Hopefully. Fingers crossed. I need to read up on you guys too. There are so many old friends I miss.
How've you all been?
