Alive
And so it would seem that another six weeks of summer have swiftly passed! Although, the saying "time flies when you're having fun" doesn't necessarily apply here, considering that I spent my time doing chemistry. It was a bitch and a half on a good day, and completely hellish at the end. All that matters now is that I am DONE WITH CHEMISTRY FOR THE REST OF MY COLLEGE CAREER (and hopefully, LIFE). That is, unless I do something really stupid like decide that I want to be a chem major. Thankfully, I'm pretty sure that's one stupid thing that I will NOT be doing. ;) BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT I AM ALIVE. Oh yes.
What's left of my summer looks pretty promising; I'm leaving at 5 am tomorrow to go to St. Thomas for five days on a family vacation, and I still haven't packed (typical). In fact, I've done everything I possibly can to put it off - I visited all of my bookmarked sites in hopes of getting hopelessly distracted by a site or two that I'd forgotten about, but alas, they all proved boring after a couple minutes of surfing. You know you've reached a kind of low point in your life when looking at clothes and playing Robot Unicorn Attack have gotten old.
Tangent: It's funny how right after I finish doing academics for a long stretch of time, my greatest desire when I get home is to be productive. Like, I woke up today and laid in bed for an hour and contemplated all the things I could do (even though I ended up only doing a couple necessary things, like eating and doing laundry). I briefly thought of finding my AP bio textbook to brush up on my bio for Bio 13 in the fall, but that never happened. Big surprise. :P I still need to eat dinner (a nectarine and a couple bacon-wrapped scallops don't exactly constitute a legit dinner) and shower, and of course, pack.
Un-tangent: So after I pack and go to St. Thomas and come back (maybe tan? Despite it being the summer, I've stayed just as light as I was during the actual school year. I chalk it up to staying inside all the time...), I'm going to have a bit of free time which I'm probably going to squander away by sleeping in, staying up late, and doing NOTHING (and consequently feel gross at the end of the day like I do now). At the very end of August/beginning of September, I'm going back up to Boston to visit Aaron (I just can't seem to stay away from MA) before he peaces out for Princeton. And then on the 4th/5th, I'll be back at Tufts. But I don't really wanna think about that yet, though, seeing as I haven't even been home for 24 hours...
