Gainesville Update, Woo!
First order of business? I want a puppy really badly.
Second order of business? I still want a puppy!
Cute, fuzzy animals aside, everything has been great since my last update! Well, great and tiring, phew. Seriously. I think I can finally say with a certain satisfaction that I'm done with the whole "moving in" stage of things. I've had all the big pieces of furniture for a while now, I'm finally starting to relax and feel like I'm at home when I'm here, and it's a nice feeling. There are still a few more small things (namely just wall-art and maybe a few bedroom decorations) left, but I mean, I am comfy-awesome. Hoorah!
I have a midterm on Wednesday. Midterm. That word sucks pretty hard, because it inspires so much worry, no matter how good you're doing in the class. No matter how good you think you're doing, it's like the word "final", only a little less. It's a big, scary word that doesn't really mean nothing - because if you're doing good, you're going to do good, and if you study you're going to do good. But it's still a big scary word, and I'm just glad I only have one of them and so I'm not really worried!
I got a lot of studying done today, and I'll get more done later tonight and tomorrow and it will be a thing of the past!
I felt a bit "lost" for a little while, but I'm sure that's normal, wanting to get on track and start the "important" classes and get past all this gen-ed class stuff, that feeling of just wanting to get started. I've been having trouble writing recently because there have been so many thoughts in my mind, so I've gone back to drawing for a bit now. It helps clear out my head of the creativity bug in a way that (right now) writing short stories would be too difficult to do.
Jessica and I celebrated our two year anniversary on the 3rd! Two years. It's so confusing to say it, because on one hand it feels like it's all gone by so fast, you know that feeling that time flies when you're having fun? On the other hand, it feels like I've known her all my life and two years can't be nearly long enough to feel as close to her as I do. I love her more and more every day, and I'm sure you guys don't wanna read all that corny stuff, but I could just spend forever spending time with her. It's one of those feelings like you're the only two people in a world, and you can share this sort of secret communicaton. That kind of feeling where just being around them makes you so incredibly happy, no matter what you're doing. Seriously, Jess? That girl makes me happier than anything in the world. So everyone be happy for me, because even when just moving and things are pretty hard to adjust to, she would be there and make everything amazing, and I can't say enough.
More recently: Jessica's mom came up and helped her look for apartments, she stayed over here and mostly me and Jess just spent time playing video games and watching crappy movies on Sci-Fi channel. Needless to say, it was far more fun than it had any right to be!
Ranging topics, we're going back to classes! I'm going to sign up to take a class on CPR and get my "CPR Card" (I didn't even know there was such a thing) -- just for fun, I figure it'd be something good to know, and it does open a bunch of possibilities as far as classes, if I ever for some reason decided to do EMT classes within the two years my CPR card is active. Really, it's just something I feel like doing for no reason other than it's something good to know.
It's almost spring break! What is everyone doing for spring break? It all better be fun!
I wanna go to Disney, or Islands of Adventure, and I know I have to work at least part-time over spring break, but other than that I get to just be lazy and not have classes. Yeees. And talk my parents into getting me a puppy and helping me pay for it.
See? Everything comes around full circle, we're back to the puppy, which means this post is just about over!
Expect another one by weekend! Woo.
