I think this post is going to simply be a fine collection of random stories of my life over the past few days or so. First of all, 5 days left!!!!! Although, I have the same professor for two of my classes, and yesterday he sent emails with our syllabi for both classes attached. It made me kinda sad, I'm not ready for the classes part yet. And I already know I need like 7 or 8 books for both classes combined. I'm really worried I'm not gonna have enough money to buy all the books I need. Yikes! I've never encountered this problem before.
AHH! Why must I dwell on the future? I worry myself about summer, and graduating from college and Owl City and girls' night. I think it's my parents' fault, always telling me to think ahead, be prepared, yada yada ya. I think their tendency to overworry has rubbed off on me. I think I take after my dad in a lot of ways, some I'm proud of and some I'm not. So, I am applying to be cook's assistant this summer at camp instead of dishwasher. Something I'm super excited about and something I'm not excited about. I'm excited because I'll make more money and get done earlier in the evenings. Not excited because I have to get up earlier and get less breaks during the day. And I'm afraid I'll make some huge, unfixable mistake. It's stupid, I know, just something I fear.
All of a sudden, I feel like I could just go somewhere and cry. Weirddddd. Anyway, family, family, family. My dad has recently discovered relatives he's never met or only met once or twice when he was little. Long story short, my dad has been told by one of his cousins that one of his siblings or even him, might be a brother or sister and not a cousin at all. Talk about a bombshell. So my dad has been spending his time convincing himself he looks like his siblings, because he doesn't want it to be him. Who would? And then, my aunt (the one who likes to send Facebook msgs to Nick Coughlins) has been having problems with her second husband, all throughout their five or six yr marriage. Lately, it's gotten so bad, she's been talking about possibly getting a divorce. I kinda hope she does, cuz he's kind of a jerkface, I guess they've gotten in physical arguments, but she claims they've only been shoving matches. In my opinion, there shouldn't be any shoving or anything else like that. Not right. So yeah. Gotta love family.
Prince Ali Amorous He Ali Ababwe! My cousin (daughterto previously mentioned aunt), is the one I got Ali from. She found out the other night when she came home that I had named it. Apparently it already had a name, I had no idea. I guess she named it Bluey, so to keep her happy, I have to call him Bluey until I go back to Oz, then it can be named Ali. Lame-o.
So, someone once said it seemed like I knew everything (regarding goings-on between friends and such). I think this is mainly because, if it appears someone is having a hard time with something, I ask what's wrong out of genuine concern for that person. Most people trust me enough to tell me. And they can trust me. Friendship is a two way street. I just think it's something we need to work on as a BASIC group. Andy has said the same thing. When someone is going through something, most of us tend to ignore it and stay focused on our own problems. He used Katie Spawton as a great example. I think once someone is saved, it's our responsibility to kind of look after that person and help guide them, at least in the beginning. I dunno.
On a kinda happier note, I am so excited about this semester!! Especially our girls' night, and then Owl City, and the BASIC Conference, and Church!!!!! And dance parties. And Wonton. And movies. And the breakwall. There's a few things I'm not excited about, but I'm not gonna go there. No reason to. I dont think I've ever needed a place before. I NEED Oswego. I need the excitement and spontaneity. And freedom, definitely the freedom. This is turning out to be one long blog post. I think that pretty much covers everything. 5 days!!!!!!! The End.
