college life
so college is going good. up until yesterday i was feeling kind of overwhelmed between feeling sad about elijah and the massive amount of people i didn't know and feeling like there was nothing to do. but then it was weird because i was feeling depressed until part way through the 3rd day like i was at camp mikell and then suddenly things started to go right. after i wrote a depressing letter i started to feel better. i went to the library and checked out a zen buddhism book and read it and talked to lauren on the phone. then i went to lunch and i first met this girl named katherine(kathy) bailey, i just randomly sat with her cause she was sitting alone. and then i went up to get seconds and i started talking to this other girl who was the other katherine bailey(weird huh) and she ended up sitting next to me, so one was sitting in front of me and the other was sitting next to me. and the second one and me clicked really well which was good, cause i've met a lot of cool people, but i haven't clicked that well with any of them. and then i remembered that i knew kathy from years ago from my tent in girl scout camp, what a small world. so that was cool. and katherine is interesting in meditation too so that's cool. i wish there was a buddhist center around here because it's hard to meditate by yourself without a lot of practice, or atleast more than i have or learn just by reading how to do it. then we made cookies last night and colored. and i get along really well with one of the r.a.s from one of the floors below. and i found out about this place i have to check out where they have hiking trails and stuff! and hopefully today i'm gonna go shopping for headphones and a poster. hope you all are doing well in decatur <3
