    Almost done!

    One more final and I'm done for the semseter!  I'm kind of surprised I've survived; this has probably been my hardest semester yet.  And the last few weeks have been completely out of control (i.e. I was definitely up until 5:30 am last night/morning working on a final that was due today).  But I am so glad to be done! 
    This summer looks like it will be really awesome.  The only possible drawback could be how expensive gas is getting because that could severely cut into my traveling experiences.  But there's not much I can do about that.  Lots of fun things are going on - Emily's prom and graduation, lots of grad parties for probably the last of my friends that are still in high school, and lots of weddings!  Actually, only 2 or 3 weddings, but that's the most exciting part. 
    I'm in denial about the necessity of packing up my room right now.  I really need to get it done, but it's just so overwhelming that I choose not to think about it.  I think I'll go out instead...

    And the weather forecast is...

    5 DAYS OF SUNSHINEY WARMNESS IN A ROW!!  Who could ask for anything better than that?! 

    My life is out of control, but I can see the calmness ahead.  I just have to hold on through a couple more weeks...

    Happy Spring

    winter blahs

    This weather sucks.  It's even worse because it was SO nice out yesterday and this morning and then it steadily got colder and colder and colder and rainier and rainier and rainier.  Blech. 

    Only FOUR more days until I will be lounging on the beach in 75° weather.  I can't waaaait. 

    This week leading up to break is going to be a tough one, though.  I mean, I have two essay exams in two of my hardest classes on Friday morning.  That sucks!  When I am a teacher, I will never ever do those awful kinds of things to my students.  I swear.

    I thought of two really good titles for novels today:
        1. Remnants of Yesterday's Road Trip
        2. Wash Your Jeans With Rain Water

    I'm not quite sure what either of them mean (particularly the second one), but I still think they would make good book titles. Maybe I should just be the editor that titles the novels instead of the author.  But I am going to write a novel someday.  Someday.

    OK, time for reading, and sleeping, and dreaming.  Of the beach.

    Say

    The beginning of today wasn't that great (I slept through chapel and class and I was feeling pretty useless), but it got better.  I think I realized that I'm just having an off week and it happens to everyone.  And if certain people can't deal with that in me, then they aren't really my friends.  (I credit the comment Julie left me with this realization, thanks Jules )  Those that really care about me love me everyday; no matter what kind of mood I'm in and whether I am the most fun or the most boring person in the world.

    I also think that I need to remind myself often that I am not the only one to blame when I don't get to spend time with friends.  It works both ways and just because I don't have the time one week to call or spend time with people, doesn't mean it's all my fault and that I am a bad friend.  This happens to me a lot.  I am actually pretty bad at keeping in touch with people.  But it's not because I forget about people or love that person any less - it's just something that happens.  And I feel bad about it ALL the time and I don't really think that's necessary.  The friends that really truly love me for me don't mind if I go a few months without talking to them on the phone, they still want to hang out when I am around or talk to me when I do call them.  And I really appreciate those friends.    They are what make my life.

    Life is feeling so weird right now.  I think it's a combination of the sucky weather, being sick, stress, and pmsy hormones. 

    I feel very socially awkward, like I don't know how to talk to people like I used to be able to.  I'm never in the mood to really do anything; I have no motivation at all.  I think this makes me feel like a bad friend when I am supposed to hang out or am hanging out with friends and I'm no fun at all and don't really feel like doing anything at all.  I just look at myself and think, I wouldn't want to be friends with me, why would anyone else want to be friends with me.

    I'm not trying to feel sorry for myself or get sympathy either.  I just really feel this way.  I don't know why.  And that's the most frustrating part about it.  I feel like I just need some time to relax, collect my life together again, and then I will be able to go on as normal.  But I just don't have the time to do that at all.  If I'm not in class, I'm at work or studying, or just sitting with absolutely no motivation to do anything at all except sleep.

    I never used to be like this - what is wrong with me?
