Cheesecake!
So, for Mike's birthday, I made a CHEESECAKE. Shocking, IT CAME OUT. Deliciously, even. The crust could have been better, and the top cracked, but the filling was perfect and I decorated it to hide the cracking, so...voila! Near-perfect cheesecake, to my surprise and joy.
If you can't tell, I'm rather proud of myself.
I also had a very pleasingly relaxing weekend. Mike and I didn't do much of anything, just watched the rest of Wonderfalls, had dinner out for his birthday, had dinner out again the next day with an old college friend of his who is one of the best people ever and I hadn't seen in a year, and lay around a lot chatting. Lovely.
The only bad part was the realization while we were watching Wonderfalls (one of the characters reminds me of my present best friend) about how short of a time I have left in college. Up until now, I've been quite alright with this. Ready to be out, moving on, etc. But lately things have been a lot better, especially because of said best friend, A., and getting along much better with M. and R. But A. especially. And I had the heartbreaking realization that I get to live in the same city as him for...one year. I've spent most of college waiting to move closer to Mike. It'll have been over three years by the time I actually can. And now that I'm finally getting close, I meet one of the other most amazing people I've met, and have a time limit to it. That was kind of depressing to realize. How did those of you out of college handle this sort of thing?
My new roommate has moved in....I'm reserving judgment on her for the moment, but for now she seems easy to get along with. Excellent.
