opportunities to end up in new york this summer.
let’s freeze time. let’s not have to grow up and be productive and work and slave and rot. let’s freeze time and cruise up and down lake shore drive listening to “the district sleeps alone tonight” until it’s summertime and we can go swimming in the lake and freeze time all over again.

to be quite frank
I am enjoying life more than I ever have before.
It feels good.
Tonight: AWC resume workshop, rollerskating (for free!) at Baker & ACRN volleyball game.
Somewhere in between someone cute might come over for hot cocoa… but we won’t talk about that. Yet. ;)
oh
so that’s how nice young men treat a lady.
gotta say. didn’t hate it.

lucky.
me (via text): I think I know what I want to do with my life but I don't want to tell you because you won't take me seriously.
dad: What does that mean? All I ever want is for you to be happy and have a passion.
me: Yeaahhh but it's something goofy & I wouldn't even know where to start.
dad: I'll help you start. Whatever it is, I'll help you and we will make it happen.

…was anyone going to tell me this if I hadn’t arbitrarily taken POCO 201 this quarter?
oh well. at least I’ll be graduating with a double major, minor & certificate (& in 3 years instead of 4).
…except too bad I don’t have any job (ideas) lined up. haha.

is it just me
or when you date a person do you tend to really, really shelter their ego and their feelings and their heart? You tell them how physically attractive they are, even when you know that you only find them physically attractive because you like them mentally.
you tell them how everyone LOVED the work they did, when in fact a lot of people had a lot of (quite harsh) criticism.
you tell them they are...
some people
are just shallow people.
in a nutshell, here's my day:
weareelectric:
Right now getting ready for JOUR 464: Reporting Public Affairs. By “getting ready” I mean browsing The Post because my prof is apparently unaware of the fact that several other news outlets exist in this town. Our “news” quizzes are based solely off of Post stories. Also, for this class we have to cover Athens City Council. Seriously? I just got back from covering politics and...
it's a good thing
that, despite Ft. Wayne, I didn’t get my hopes up this time around.
I’m not a stupid girl. I know the decisions I make are horrible ones sometimes, but I make them because I am young and have nothing to lose, and what sort of growth happens without stupidity anyway?
So I didn’t invest much emotion this time around. Honest to god, I really didn’t. Mostly because there are...

Instead I spent the night with people who I don’t know too well, doing things completely out of my comfort zone.
this night was simply amazing.

which makes the B+ I got in his class that much easier to swallow.
I don't get people who "don't miss home".

honestly, how can you say that … home is family, home is security. … … home is getting in your car, and for at least 20 minutes of driving, no matter what direction or route you take, you know every single square inch of what you’re passing. … home is vulnerability.

due to a series of amazing circumstances
Max & I have acquired the following: free plane tickets to LA, free room&board in LA and Ireland (Mayo/Galway), a $1,500 travelers check and a contagious desire to see Italy.
The (way over ambitious and hopefully plausible) plan?
June 14: Fly to LA June 18: Fly to Italy June 24: Fly to Ireland June 25-26: Mayo, Ireland June 27-28: Galway June 29: Fly home

there are frequent occasions
when I wish I had stayed in Chicago for college.
…and then there are days like today, where light snow and temperatures in the teens are considered HORRIBLE, and I just smile and thank god I’m not in the typical 2 + ft of snow and negative 20 degree days I experienced winter after winter growing up in Chicago.
still, though. miss that place.
finally in athens again
and I am sitting on my computer looking on Craigslist for apartments in Austin, Galway, Brooklyn, London and various locations in Chicago.
some people think I’m crazy for wanting to leave school in 3 years instead of 4. but I’m ready to start feeling useful and productive again.
