God I hate this time of year.
In other news, I'm not doing so hot this semester! A part of it has to do with the general blah I've felt this year, another has to do with the odd sensations that a new addition to my life has brought on, and a third part probably has to do with the general malaise I'm feeling towards schooling at this point. I mean, I've been in some of education for 18 years of my life. That is not an insignificant portion, especially when one considers that I'm only 21.
That also doesn't make much sense on a timeline, but I'm pretty sure mom had me in for 2 years of preschool. Whatever, it's a long time.
I brought this up with my friends the other day and one suggested that I work this summer, save up money, and kick around Europe for a month or so. He suggested it because he said it would appeal to me.
He has no idea just how much it appeals to me. The idea of going to a foreign country is intriguing enough as is. Going alone adds to the allure, and going alone for a month makes it fan-fucking-tastic. There are no words for how tempted I am to just do this.
On the other hand, it's expensive (Tickets to Europe cost about $1k round trip, from what little research I've done), and my parents are likely to kill me either before or after the trip. Plus that doesn't really solve out my immediate problems.
So in summation, Europe would be pretty bitching, and Valentine's Day/Week can go fuck itself. And who the hell thought roses were a good symbol for love anyway?
