School's Out


Its 11:30 in the morning and I just ate a cinnamon crunch bagel from Panera for breakfast. That sort of typifies not what I've been up to since classes ended last Wednesday, but rather my general attitude since then. Today would be the exception. My dad called me this morning and asked what I was doing. I was lying in bed, so I said "nothing." He said, "Wow. I haven't heard that from you in a while." And thats true. This past semester seemed like a marathon ran at a sprint's pace. I took too many hours, and really applied myself, so I got pretty tired. But like most things, looking back at it, it seems like a quick blip. I learned a great deal, I met some great people, and I think Jessica and I have grown a great deal as individuals and as a couple... but it doesn't seem like we've been here for six months. That said, we are both so excited about going back to Alabama for two full weeks! It doesn't really feel like Christmas without our family and friends. Maybe I should wear my Santa hat around today and see if that helps.
