I usually don't write in this thing when I can't handle life. That means yes friends, I've been a little on the crazy side of life these past few months. Many reasons. 1) I don't do transitions well. I had many this semester. New school. New classes. New long distance relationships (because try as I might they are unavoidable). I just don't do "new" very well. I like things staying the same. Even if in retrospect they are shitty. I would rather keep that then change. 2) Work. I had a mild breakdown about economics because I'm having trouble in Microeconomic Theory. Econ has always come easily to me and yes this did freak the shit out of me. Many a panic attack. 3) The real world is becoming a very real prospect. I've got less that four hundred days to find a place to live and a job to bide my time until grad school. It's so scary to think that my college career is almost 3/4 over. 4) I don't do variables well. Not knowing things seriously upsets me. I have no plan for this summer and will probably end up working at a temp job. Jake might come to stay. Notice the "maybe"s, "probably"s and "might be"s all terms I do not enjoy and just increase my anxiety. 5) Everyone I'm uber close to is at a minimum of 2 hours away. I don't approve. This semester has had many ups and downs. Highest high: Meeting new friends and getting to party like first year again. (as all my friends are infact first years....damn I'm old....and just that cool. Lowest low: Getting a brain contusion and having to coax one person here to go to the hospital with me. Literally coax. And as nice as she sometimes seemed. She was bitching about it the whole time. It made me miss Smith more than I thought I could. When I had to go to the hospital last semester, my friends couldn't figure out who should go....so they all went. It was just a big reminder that Vassar isn't my home, and that I don't actually belong here. I want to go home. Problem is: Not going back to Smith until August. And the person that makes me feel the most at home isn't returning from Australia until late June. Bah. It's been a frustrating semester and overall a pretty shitty year. Let's hope senior year is much, much better. This year has actually been so shitty it actually directly compares to my senior year of highschool. Sad. I hoped to never have to relive the bullshit that was that time period. Whatevs. Senior year bodes well even though I'll be extremely busy. KC folk: Most likely returning to KC and get ready for this...Jake is gonna be there for awhile as well. |
