I just decided to drop my German lit class, which makes me sad. I feel like I broke up with the professor.

If I'm this sad about it, should I be doing it at all? I think it would have been too much on top of everything else I'm doing this semester, plus Rich coming. But I'm really bummed right now.

Well, things have been interesting so far. I'm close to reaching an agreement on an apartment for Rich (after MUCH drama) and I had my Schola audition today. It went well for the most part, but I kind of crapped out on the sightreading. I'm really really hoping to get back in. Actually, I'm not sure what I'll do if I don't. Maybe go abroad?

I'm doing a lot better now. Rich and I have been talking a lot, so we're still in very close contact, but the initial pain of being apart is starting to subside. I've also started to have a lot more fun on retreat. I've laughed a lot, and that made me realize how little time I spent in large groups of people this summer. I'm really looking forward ( Read more... )

I'm on retreat in NJ with New Blue now. I miss Rich SO MUCH. We spent the bulk of the last few days before I left together, even after the trip we went on. My dad had to take me to the airport 2.5 hours early since he was leaving on a flight the same morning, and Rich came to keep me company until my plane left. It was really really sweet. I got to ( Read more... )

Just got back from the trip. Whee! It was so much fun. The drives, both in and out, were nice and relatively traffic-free, the hotel room was not opulent but definitely satisfactory. Schlitterbahn was a lot of fun! Only half of the park was open since it's off season, but off season also meant discount prices and very short lines. Rich and I used ( Read more... )

Yay, Rich and I are going on our trip in a few hours. The trip was in jeopardy after Rich experienced intense mouth pain for three days. He went into the doctor this morning and had his dry socket patched up, so we're good to go ( Read more... )

I got a new cell phone! I have no idea how to use it.

Well, Rich and I are officially going to New Braunfels next week! We made the hotel reservation today. I'm so excited that we'll be able to wrap up the summer with a nice little trip. The plan is to drive down on Monday, relax, get up on Tuesday, go to Schlitterbahn waterpark, and then go home. I wonder what we could do Monday afternoon/evening. ( Read more... )

Very busy day today. I got up at 10, which was when I had set my alarm for due to the fact that I was out late last night watching Collateral with Rich. The movie was pretty cool, by the way, I'd say about the same quality as The Village. I decided to get myself some kolaches for breakfast, and then I had my final piano lesson with Alan. I feel ( Read more... )

I've been reading the Bridget Jones' Diary books, which are very fun for girls by the way, and I've noticed that I'm starting to think in Brit-talk. Actually, I've noticed before that I tend to adopt the linguistic mannerisms of whatever I'm reading--I'm particularly insufferable when reading anything with a lot of archaic language, like Tolkein. I ( Read more... )
