The shuttle launch was absolutely incredible. Watching the shuttle lift off, seeing the rocket boosters separate, watching the shuttle approach orbit with the edge of the Earth in the background, and then watching the shuttle separate itself from the external tank after reaching orbit, it was all just amazing. An extremely intense 10 minutes. I don ( Read more... )

Friday and Monday of this weekend were two of the best days I have had all summer long. The times spent at the park, the beach, and other places made me happier than I have been since I came home for the summer.

Four months, and hopefully many, many more to come. :)

My mind is an absolute mess of thoughts right now. The more I try to sort it out, the more confusing it gets. It feels like every thought contradicts another. I wish I had someone who would understand that I can talk to, but I'm left alone with my thoughts right now.

The students are just all so type-A, competitive, driven types - the kind that I can't stand to be around for more than 5 minutes. I mean, ( Read more... )

It's as if I never came out of senioritis, and I feel like it gets worse every year. Just in time for medical school, fantastic.

I need a holiday. A very long holiday.

Every day just keeps getting worse and worse and worse.
I need September 19 or whenever school starts to come, now.

For some crazy reason, I actually felt that this summer would be different. I thought that maybe now that things are starting to get back on track, other things would fix themselves and people could move on and stop dwelling in the past. Apparently, I was wrong. This problem is one that I'm starting to feel will never be fixed, no matter what I do ( Read more... )

I swear, this will be my last one for a while. I promise ( Read more... )
