do you know what I think? I think our problem was that we were so expecting college to solve everything and we spent so long waiting for college and waiting for things to get better we didn't realise how good things were.
College doesn't solve anything. It's not magical. Throwing ourselves in there and throwing ourselves into everything and trying to force it to be what we expected I think burned us out very quickly. Some people can be social all the time and throw ourselves into all sorts of people and just be ON all the time, but we're simply too independent for that. We want our friends to come to US. Fuck being charming, yo. It just sets up all sorts of expectations. Charming strangers to love you is one thing--charming people that you want a legit, long-term connection with is excrutiatingly ridiculous, and so far has not worked here, because then you have to be charming and fabulous all. the. time

That's a really, really good point. People have been telling me since I was about 12 years old that I would love college. Now it's just a little bit of a disappointment.
Are you coming home for thanksgiving? That would be super, incredibly awesome.
LOVE YOU darling! If it helps at all, I've been feeling the same way about the store lately too. You, Lori & John have been the only co workers that I've REALLY clicked with and now you're gone. =( Work SUCKS in so many! I've been having an extremely hard time convincing myself that everything will be okay but without you & Skip, I don't think this landslide will ever slow down enough to stop. God how I miss you!!!!!!!!!!! <3 <3 <3
Hehe, I miss you too! It'll be nice to come back for christmas break, even if it will be crazy and it's only for a few weeks.... I'll be sure to come visit soon.
